Want to become a member?

The FWMF consists of festivals producing regular worldwide musical events that fulfil a specific artistic and quality profile. Since the primary concerns of the FWMF are artistic, and artistically related issues, members are represented by their artistic director. The board decides on membership after due consultation with the members.
 
We are a member-driven network that loves to exchange music, collaborate on inspiring projects and join forces with exciting new initiatives. We share artists, work together as equals worldwide and are not afraid of artistic risks. 

We love the face 2 face contact, and cherish the complicity of friends working together. Members of the network are trustworthy, don’t have any buyer/seller relation, they are part of the same exciting global movement presenting great artists for great audiences.

Each member festival represented in the network pays an annual member fee. The level of this fee is determined each year by the Annual General Meeting. The present membership fee is 750 euros. 

In order to consider a festival as a member an application in writing must be submitted. An application form is available here. The application should also include the program of your festival over the last three years for added background. Do not hesitate to add any other relevant information.
