Registration opens for XpoNorth 2019

Argyll-based musicians and film-makers are being invited to apply to showcase at one of Scotland’s leading creative industries festivals.

Taking place in Inverness on July 3 and 4, the annual Inverness-based XpoNorth, formerly goNORTH, offers delegates access to an exceptional creative programme.

By day, XpoNorth hosts a packed programme of seminars and workshops featuring leading local, national and international professionals from across the creative sector.

By night, the festival sets the city alight with creativity from the event’s firmly established new music showcase sound tracking a host of city centre venues with over 60 of the hottest new acts around, to a specially-curated short film programme and a range of relaxed networking events.

XpoNorth is funded by Highland and Island Industries and Iain Hamilton, head of creative industries said: ‘It’s important that the event acts as a platform to promote the Highlands and Islands as an incredibly diverse creative and cultural destination and surfaces opportunities to connect our community to leading national and international voices from across the industry.’

Free delegate registration is now live and all processes can be accessed at xponorth.co.uk

The submission window will close on Monday April 8 and all applications will be forwarded to a panel of industry professionals to establish the list of films and acts invited to showcase.
