Events
The 12th edition of Westway takes place between April 9th and 12th, 2025 and revolves around three pillars: LAB (artists-in-residence), LIVE (concerts) and MEETING (Conferences, Keynotes, Talks, Networking, Pitching).
LIVE represents talent and geographical and aesthetic diversity, values assumed since the first edition of the event, which this year includes names such as: Emmy Curl, Fidju Kitxora, Chico Bernardes and Maidavale. At MEETING, The Legendary Tigerman will be a protagonist as a national example in the relationship between music and cinema. Tiffany Fukuma, the new CEO of Keychange, will talk about the new challenges for equality in the sector. Paola Wescher, agent of Last Tour, promoter of the Kalorama Festival, will bring a look at the agency and the connection to festivals. And Turo Pekari from Music Finland will address technological innovation and the challenges of AI in sound and image. At the LAB, several artists will work together for a week at the Candoso Creation Center, and then present the results obtained.
