Popfest and Popfest Sessions 24 - 27 July 2025
Discussions on current topics in music creation
How can you make a living from music these days? How do artists deal with the pressure to be constantly present on social media? And: (What) can we learn from punk?
On 25 and 26 July, the Popfest Wien Sessions at this year's Popfest Wien will address current issues in music creation in discussion rounds and talks. Representatives of the Austrian and international music industry, music journalists, event organisers and musicians will talk about the aesthetic and economic dimensions of a rapidly changing industry. In cooperation with mica - Music Austria, the Vienna Business Agency supports the Popfest Sessions panels, which take place free of charge at Wien Museum.
