Go beyond the stage, and build the future of live music, together! Applications are now open for Live Incubator 2027, and this time, solo artists are invited to join. Deadline: Monday 9 November, 12:00 CET.

Are you a solo artist who wants to change how the music industry works, and not just play in it? Join a small cross-border team of artists, emerging professionals and the directors of Trondheim Calling, Spot Festival and Waves Vienna. Together you’ll pick a real challenge facing the live music scene, build a project to tackle it, and pitch it to the industry.

Locations: Trondheim · Aarhus · Vienna
Dates: January – November 2027

Mentoring, a European network, and a showcase at all three festivals along the way
Travel, accommodation and conference access covered

Open to solo artists aged 18–30 based in Denmark, Norway or Austria. You don’t need a finished idea, just the drive to create one.

*Live Incubator is open to everyone, and we warmly encourage artists who are underrepresented in the music industry to apply.*
