The Culture Hub Poland Foundation is recruiting for representatives of the Polish music industry interested in participating in a networking mission during the Eurosonic Noorderslag showcase festival and conference, taking place in Groningen, the Netherlands, from 14th to 17th January 2026.

Eurosonic celebrates its 40th anniversary this year. Today, it's one of the most important cultural and industry events in Europe – a true music institution that annually attracts thousands of professionals participating in over 150 panels, workshops, and keynote speeches. Eurosonic also attracts audiences with a rich concert program. This year, among the 350 bands and artists performing over three evenings and nights, there will be a strong Polish lineup: Cinnamon Gum, Hania Derej, Hér, Leona Jacewska, Omasta, and Yana Couto.

The networking mission to Groningen prepared by Culture Hub Poland provides a unique opportunity to establish contacts with representatives of the European music industry, including the most important CD and LP distributors, representatives of music publishers, clubs and concert venues, festival organizers and bookers.

In addition, Culture Hub Poland covers the costs of accreditation for the conference and festival part, as well as accommodation and reimbursement of transport costs up to PLN 1000 gross (this may include a train ticket for the Amsterdam – Groningen route).
