Music Sustainability Summit 2025 Date Announced
After debuting this past February, the Music Sustainability Summit has announced the date for its second conference in Los Angeles.
Focused on creating solutions to the climate crisis within the music industry, the Summit will happen on Monday, February 5. Like this year’s event, the Summit will happen the day after the Grammy awards.
A venue for the 2025 Summit has not yet been announced. The event was conceived of and is produced by the Music Sustainability Alliance.
“The Summit represents a meeting of the minds working on music industry sustainability, both
leaders and learners,” Music Sustainability Alliance CEO and co-founder Amy Morrison says in a statement. “The industry has nearly unlimited potential to model the future we all want to see by supporting and propagating leadership practices and technologies that can address the climate crisis, the biodiversity crisis, the waste crisis and other societal challenges. The summit represents an annual opportunity to collaboratively learn and to showcase and accelerate the industry’s progress.”
Last year’s Summit was attended by more than 300 workers from across the music industry, with a day’s worth of panels focuses on the impact of climate change on their business.
Additionally, the MSA has also announced a new monthly webinar series called The Green Room. The free series launches September 3 with a session called “Turning Fans Into Activists,” which will focus on how artists are encouraging fans to become politically active and how they can do so without alienating fans.
Forthcoming Green Room topics include creating zero-waste event and music and the regulatory environment. The series is hosted by MSA strategy director Joel Makower, who is also the chairman and co-founder of GreenBiz Group.
