National in scope and local in focus, the Denver Music Summit brings together musicians, industry professionals, civic leaders and music enthusiasts for educational programming, live performances and policy engagement. This 3-day Summit provides a platform to share ideas, inspire ingenuity and develop new models of music-driven economic development and community building.
As Denver emerges as a national hub for music, we invite the public to join in on the conversation, networking and live performances taking place each night of the Summit that showcase our vibrant local and national scenes and explore new channels of collaboration.
