The capital’s leading Electronic Music & Arts Conference returns to Printworks

AVA London, the capital’s Leading Electronic Music & Arts Conference returns to Printworks for its fifth edition. The event will host over 40 artists, brands and creative industry professionals across a daytime programme featuring keynote speeches, Q&As – as well as hands-on masterclasses, tech demos and workshops to make for an engaging, educational and insightful day.

This is a unique opportunity to take part in a virtual Q&A with dance music guru Carl Cox, a live production masterclass with acclaimed Bulgarian artist KiNK, and take inspiration from a special keynote speech from the revered author of Trainspotting and lifelong electronic music nut Irvine Welsh.

Other highlights include an exclusive talk with Jamz Supernova (BBC Radio 1xtra), Jaguar Bingham (BBC Radio 1) and host Niks Delanancy (Black Artist Database), panels with Resident Advisor, DJ Mag, Foundation FM, Hospital Records, plus a keynote interview with audiovisual artist and Aphex Twin collaborator Weirdcore.

Focusing on four key themes: Innovation, Diversity, Post-Pandemic & Sustainability – AVA brings its core
values forward and centre important conversations around an industry rebuilding itself throughout
unprecedented times.

Timings:
Conference: 11am – 6pm
Interval: 6pm – 8pm
Club: 8pm – 3am
