Music business seminars provide you with the opportunity to expand your knowledge and skills and also helps you connect with other people in the business. Business is about relationships so these events are well worth the time and money you spend to attend.

You'll find 6 good ways to track down seminars, conventions and other music business events in your area on the page below.

1 - Use The Press...

Weekly and daily local newspapers and magazines publish articles and ads for music seminars and conventions. Grab a few of the latest issues and scan them for events which tickle your musical fancy.

2 - Contact Colleges and Universities...

Local educational institutions, especially music schools and colleges, may host or know of music business seminars. Check their websites for contact details and phone them up!

3 - Ask Music Organizations...

Music organizations often host or sponsor events so they can be a great way to discover events in your area. A good place on the Web to find these organizations in your area or field of speciality is the Open Directory Project site.

4 - Hit the Search Engines...

Twitter Search, Google, Yahoo or Bing it. Search for "music business seminar [insert your city]" or "music convention [insert your city]" and variations. Enough said!

5 - Scan Music Business News Sites...

Music business news sites often keep calendars of important events in the business. Two fine examples are...

Music Industry News Wire

Billboard Events Pages

6 - Ask People In The Business.

Musicians, producers, engineers, promoters, publishers, booking agents, music journalists, radio hosts and music bloggers are all good people to ask about upcoming events or seminars.

This can be as easy as...

Ring-Ring Ring-Ring Ring...
