The International Festival Forum (IFF) presented its eighth edition in 2022. Since launching in 2015, it has become the leading annual meeting place for the world’s top booking agencies and the cream of the international festival business. IFF sees the industry’s principal buyers and sellers come together for 2.5 days of networking, showcases, and conference sessions. The invitation-only event takes place in the autumn, just as conversations about the following year’s festival line-ups are well underway. IFF provides a dedicated platform for buyers and sellers to network. IFF’s partner agencies showcase the hottest new festival-ready artists from their roster, while a programme of panels, workshops and keynote interviews allow leaders and innovators in the music festival space to share knowledge and best practice. IFF has a deliberately focused make-up of delegates. Attendance is restricted to festivals above 10,000-capacity per day, and key booking agencies. All previous editions of IFF have sold out several weeks in advance.
