It takes place this weekend, 11 and 12 August, at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The festival has been building up a reputation as a music destination for some time now, and this year's StageTime conference will cement this.

Taking place at Edinburgh's historic Calrton Hotel, StageTime provides a valuable resource for music industry members to explore industry wide topics, seek training and mentoring, and attend seminars.

Panels will be hosted by key players within the industry, including CMU, the UK's biggest music news network. Panel discussion topics include 'Ready For Live? Three things bands MUST do before touring' and 'Next Steps: How to tie it all together as a sustainable career'.

There will of course be performances from emerging artists from the local area and nationwide, hosted and curated by Playhard and BandWagon.

Early bird tickets are still available for just £12.50 for the day or £25 for the whole weekend.
