Mondo.NYC conference / festival: 2018 lineup & schedule

Mondo.NYC, the “music festival and tech summit” started by CMJ Founders, is back for a third year, happening October 2-5. Mondo is much more industry-oriented than CMJ, with the conference side centered at the Williamsburg Hotel with events also happening at Rough Trade and Brooklyn Bowl. The 2018 edition will focus on “blockchain, cryptocurrency and how these emerging technologies and economies will significantly impact the business of music.” There’s also the The First Annual NYC Guild of Music Supervisors Education Event & Film Fest which will take place at the Williamsburg Hotel on October 5. You can check out this year’s list of speakers and panel schedule.

As for the music festival portion of Mondo.NYC, most of it happens in the East Village and Lower East side at venues like Pianos, DROM, Niagara, Berlin, and Coney Island Baby, featuring showcases with emerging artists. The Omar Souleyman show at Brooklyn Bowl (10/4) is also part of the fest. You can check out the full music schedule below.

Festival passes are on sale now.
