September 27 - October 3

World of Bluegrass is about the relationships you build and keep for the lifetime of your business.  It’s more important than ever to be in Nashville as we—the family of business people and fans who care deeply about bluegrass music—work together for its future. To succeed, you’ve got to be engaged with others to tap the right resources at the right time.

While virtual meetings and communications have their merits, face-to-face events have certain intrinsic benefits that are unequaled in any other forum.

• Face-to-Face meetings build trust and relationships.
• Education is more effective in a live setting.
• Live meetings actually save time and money.
• Live meetings facilitate problem solving through a more effective exchange of ideas.
• Face-to-Face meetings provide the human connection that powers business.

Moving your business forward means building relationships with industry leaders. The next person you will do business is likely to be someone you talked to at World of Bluegrass! 

A Unique Value!

There aren’t many guarantees in the music business…except if you don’t take an active role and invest in yourself, others probably won’t either.

Where else can you find the most important event producers, radio and TV broadcasters, retailers, record labels, agents, managers, artists, songwriters, journalists, educators, association leaders, suppliers, producers and engineers, publicists, web and internet developers, historians, academic leaders and even consumers—all under one roof—for one week?

  
World of Bluegrass 2010 is just such an investment and is well worth more than the price of registration—although our fees are lower by as much as 50% than almost any other conference of this kind.
