The fifth edition of the Liveurope Festival will take place in Prague on 25 and 26 May, hosted by our Czech venue Palác Akropolis.

Our flagship annual festival brings together representatives of the Liveurope venues, as well as local and international music professionals, decision-makers, media and music fans for musical discoveries, discussions on hot issues for the sector, and networking.

The music showcase promises to transport audiences on a truly European musical journey through different genres and styles. The line-up, handpicked by Palác Akropolis with a few recommendations from other Liveurope venues, features a handful of promising emerging European acts with great export potential. The line-up features over 15 artists from 9 European countries, including four nominees of the prestigious Music Moves Europe Awards.
