Five innovative, small sized (classical) music festivals join forces for a brighter future of live music in Europe. Their goal is to learn more about their audiences and how to reach them. They do so by inspiring each other through exchanging their creative and organizational best practices. This process will lead to an audience development tool for small to midsized festivals called ARTSCORE. After two years the results of this unique cooperation will be published and shared with other festivals in Europe.
