Let’s Connect at BIME Music Conference

📆 When: May 5 – 7, 2026

📍 Where: Bogotá, Colombia (Ean University)

BIME is an international music conference that celebrates the intersection of art and music in Latin America. The conference is committed to establishing alternative routes in the music industry that facilitate and amplify artistic and professional flows between Latin America and Europe. These routes aim to generate opportunities for economic, cultural, and relational growth for artists, professionals, companies, and audiences, both directly or indirectly linked to music. All of this is supported by the linguistic bond of a language shared by nearly 600 million people.

BIME represents live music, industry, trends, and innovation, a comprehensive experience fostering synergies between continents, facilitating business endeavors, uncovering the most promising emerging talents, sharing knowledge, and exploring the latest developments in the Cultural and Creative Industries. In practice, that means a mix of panels, workshops, and networking spaces where conversations can turn into real collaborations, alongside showcases that give artists a chance to perform in front of international industry professionals.

With a strong focus on cross-border connections, BIME has become a key meeting point for those looking to expand beyond their local markets. Whether you’re an artist building momentum, a label exploring new territories, or a professional looking to stay in tune with global trends, the conference offers a space to exchange ideas, discover new opportunities, and build relationships that extend well beyond the event itself.

How To Prep

Make sure you plan ahead! We recommend making a schedule of the events, panels, performances, and showcases you want to attend so you can make the most of your time. Make sure to bring all your networking and promotional essentials like business cards, a notebook, a pen, some merch items if you have ’em, demo CDs, or whatever else you feel will help you make a lasting impression and perform your best.

After the conference, make sure to follow up with all the cool people you connected with via email or socials. Speaking of socials, it won’t hurt to post about your experience and engage with other attendees who’re posting about it too.

The more connections you make, the better.
