Watch ACCES 2022 documentary

The documentary (below) captures the pan-African spirit of the music trade show, which featured top music executives, exciting music industry exhibitors, knowledgeable panellists, inspirational workshop facilitators, and an eclectic line-up of showcasing artists from across the African continent.

ACCES will make its return to Tanzania’s most populous city from 9 to 11 November 2023 as the MIAF celebrates its 10-year anniversary. The decision to hold the conference in the East African country in two consecutive years stems from a new sustainability model that is based on creating even more opportunities for local music professionals. This will allow participants to strengthen already existing partnerships and act as a strong catalyst for robust engagement.

Last year’s ACCES hosted about 1 130 delegates representing 45 countries, who attended the conference to network and connect with relevant professionals and organisations. Companies present at the conference included Spotify, Ditto Music, Universal Music, Sheer Publishing, Electromode and The Orchard, among many others.
