17-19 JULY

International Indie Music Season (IIMS) – a three-month project that kicks off with 3 days of music shows, industry talks and more (July 17-19, 2020).

IIMS is an international music industry event, based on the international culture of inclusiveness, linking the strength of global cities, and the leading music culture consumption of Shanghai. IIMS includes curated music industry panels, international music talent showcases from 28 regions from around the world; it’s a platform for the global music industry and China to meet.

I’M stands for Indie Music, though it is most commonly the abbreviation of I am. IIMS aims to encourage independent musicians to open up and embrace diverse art forms, to respect and enjoy creativity, while protecting and supporting the intellectual property and work of everyone else.
