Musicboard-Berlin

MUSICBOARD BERLIN

Musicboard is a nationwide singular institution, funding pop music in new, creative ways and maintaining a dynamic discourse on pop music in Berlin. It stands for a respectful approach to diversity and content-based music funding, emphasising the positions of musicians. It’s based on the collaboration and innovation of music-makers, their communities and collectives.

New Programmes for Musicboard’s Project Funding

Musicboard’s 2027 project funding programmes will open for applications at the end of October. The application deadline is 1 December 2026. Over the past few months, the three existing programmes – Festival Funding, Karrieresprungbrett Berlin and Pop im Kiez – have been comprehensively evaluated and revised. The new programmes will be more accessible, cover a broader range of projects, and be simpler to apply for. Join us for an info session at silent green on 2 November 2026!
