The Spanish Wave has opened the call to select the bands and artists that will be part of its programming in Visa For Music 2026.
It is the main professional music market and festival in Africa and the Middle East, which will be held from November 18 to 21 in Rabat (Morocco).
The initiative, organized together with the Cervantes Institute and the AIE Society of Artists, will allow four emerging Spanish musical projects be part of this international platform aimed at artistic circulation, cultural exchange and professional development.
Since its creation in 2014, Visa For Music has established itself as a key meeting space between artists, agents, programmers and professionals from different parts of the world, with a program that combines concerts, conferences and workshops that transform Rabat into a connection point between music scenes from Africa, the Middle East and Europe for four days.
In addition to the opportunity to perform at the festival, the IEA will financially support the participation of the selected projects with a aid of 1,200 euros by band or artist.
The call will remain open until next June 25 at 11:59 p.m.. You can sign up at this same link.
The Spanish Wave is a project for the internationalization of Spanish talent that aims to help in the export of emerging artists and bands from our country, participating with “showcases” in the most important fairs, festivals and musical events in the world, with the presence of professionals from the national and international industry. It works closely with booking agencies, record labels, both national and international promoters, as well as with partners such as AIE, the SGAE Foundation, Instituto Cervantes, Live Nation Spain, Ticketmaster Spain, Mondo Sonoro and Radio 3.
