The regional music scene is thriving with fresh and innovative artists, and it’s crucial to support young talents who stand out and have a passion for the music industry. Regional festivals and conferences – MENT Ljubljana (Slovenia), Kontakt (Serbia), SHIP (Croatia) and PIN Music Conference (North Macedonia) – have joined forces to select ten talented young professionals from the region. New Faces 2023 provides an opportunity for young people (up to 30 years old) who are actively involved in the local and/or regional music scene to build on their skills and connections, and gain valuable experience in the field of music festivals and conferences.

Regionalna glazbena scena cvjeta s novim i inovativnim umjetnicima, a ključno je podržati mlade talente koji se ističu i imaju strast prema glazbenoj industriji. Regionalni festivali i konferencije – MENT Ljubljana (Slovenija), Kontakt (Srbija), SHIP (Hrvatska) i PIN Music Conference (Sjeverna Makedonija) – udružili su snage kako bi odabrali deset talentiranih mladih stručnjaka iz regije. New Faces 2023 pruža priliku mladim osobama (do 30 godina starosti) koje su aktivno uključene u lokalnu i/ili regionalnu glazbenu scenu da razviju svoje vještine i kontakte te steknu vrijedno iskustvo u području glazbenih festivala i konferencija.
