Want to become a member?

The EFWMF consists of festival organizers producing regular worldwide musical events that fulfil a specific artistic and quality profile. Since the primary concerns of the EFWMF are artistic, and artistically related issues, members should are represented by their artistic director. The board decides on membership after due consultation with the members.

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 membership fee for 2009 is 750 EURO. In order to consider a festival as a member an application in writing must be submitted. An application form is available for download below. 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.

What do you get as a member?

  • The office of the EFWMF will always negotiate a preferential hotelrate during these trade fairs
