Ahead of the launch of its inaugural A2IM Indie Week Australian Edition, A2IM (The American Association of Independent Music) have launched early bird tickets for the upcoming event.
Held in the South Australian capital of Adelaide, the A2IM Indie Week Australian Edition will be hosted by AIR (Australian Independent Record Labels Association) at their annual 2025 Indie-Con Australia Conference, with all festivities running from July 30 until Aug. 1.
Described as a “historic event” for A2IM, the forthcoming event is the first time that the trade body is bringing its flagship conference beyond the U.S. for the first time in its 20 years of existence. Partnering with AIR and supported by the South Australian Government, the international expansion was first announced in August 2024 as part of the 2024 AIR Awards, the annual celebration of Australia’s independent music sector.
“We are honored and excited to bring A2IM Indie Week’s first-ever international event to Adelaide, Australia’s UNESCO designated City of Music,” commented A2IM general manager Lisa Hresko. Upon the announcement, it was noted that the event is promised “to be a global hub for independent music, fostering a dynamic community of industry leaders and sharing future-shaping ideas that will propel music forward.”
The 2025 edition of Indie-Con Australia Conference operates in much the same way as A2IM’s Indie Week, bringing together industry and speakers from around the globe to talk about challenges and opportunities for the sector. While the full program of events will be announced in June, the 2024 edition of Indie-Con featured over 80 speakers featuring global music industry experts, label representatives, independent artists and journalists, and representatives from over 50 different companies.
This year’s festivities will launch on July 30 with A2IM Indie Week Australian Edition, while the Indie-Con Australia Conference will take place across July 31 and Aug. 1, with everything held at Adelaide’s Mercury Cinema. The roster of events will also include the 2025 Air Awards, which will be held at the Adelaide Town Hall on July 31. Meanwhile, the 17th annual Indie Week will return to New York City from June 10 – 12.
Early bird tickets for the A2IM Indie Week Australian Edition are on sale now, with AIR member tickets priced at $249 AUD ($158 USD), and non-member tickets priced at $349 AUD ($222 USD).
