2027 Music Video
This year we have planned a major expansion of the Shark Music Video Awards to include a 3 day festival in Brighton, a mix of judging, talks, networking parties and presentation of awards, between 21-23 April.
We have also appointed a special music video consultant to help us plan the event, Martin Poyner, who is co-founder of the British Music Video Association, a non-profit initiative advocating for the cultural and economic value of music video production, and working to strengthen the sector’s long-term sustainability.
At the moment Martin is busy appointing judges and speakers, but as soon as we have more information to release, this will be via our instagram page, so look out for more announcements regarding ticketing, speakers, venues etc
To register your interest early please sign up to our special music video newsletter.
