The CNM continues its presence at the Reeperbahn Festival, helping to promote the diversity of music made in France with showcase concerts, networking events and conferences in this key region for export.

For the 2024 edition, 13 artists and some 60 French professionals will be making the trip. It’s an opportunity to demonstrate the vitality and drive of the French music industry by giving artists major exposure and enabling professionals to extend their network through professional meetings.

B2B networkings by CNM

The CNM is organising a networking format entitled the French Artist Pitch Breakfast, which will give representatives of the French bands playing at the festival the opportunity to pitch their projects in front of some 70 international VIP professional guests (festival directors, booking agents, promoters, publishers, A&Rs, music supervisors, etc.). Closed shop: by invitation only.

The CNM is also working with Hamburg Music and the Berlin Music Commission to bring together French and German professionals from all areas of the industry for speed meetings entitled ‘Matchmaking: France X Germany’.

As a member of EMEE, CNM also partners with the Music Moves Europe Awards whose double winner Zaho de Sagazan  (MME Grand Jury Prize & MME Public Choice Award) will appear with a special live show at Reeperbahn Festival 2024 recorded by Arte.
