Join us for this 2 Day Virtual Work Experience to learn about a broad range of job roles within the music industry such as performance, management, and marketing.


Throughout the two days you'll be engaging with different sector experts, hearing direct from the professionals and having the opportunity to ask the questions that are important to you. On top of that, you'll also work on short micro-projects with other students just like yourself to really showcase your collaboration and creative skills.


The UK music industry is a powerhouse of creativity and innovation, offering a vast array of career opportunities far beyond the spotlight. While artists and performers capture the stage, the industry thrives on the expertise of countless behind-the-scenes roles, including sound engineers, producers, talent managers, promoters, marketers, and music lawyers. With the rapid rise of digital platforms, exciting new careers like playlist curators, virtual event producers, and AI music developers are emerging, blending technology with artistry. For young people with diverse interests—whether in technology, business, or creativity—the music industry is bursting with potential, offering dynamic, future-proof paths where passion meets opportunity.



A great mix of information, project tasks, and talks from industry pros - really not to be missed if you're considering a career in the music industry.
