Event Overview

The Australian Songwriters Conference inaugural event took place in June 2008 and there have been subsequent ASC’s held in 2009 and 2010. The four-day event has been held in the beautiful seaside village resort of Ettalong Beach on the NSW Central Coast, and focuses on the craft and business of songwriting, attracting writers from across Australia and internationally.

The only event of its kind in Australia, the ASC’s main aim is to provide a supportive and nurturing peer environment where attendees can learn more about their craft, get up close and personal with the speakers and mentors who willingly share their time, knowledge and experience, and pitch their songs directly to the publishers who attend the event.

The Australian Songwriters Conference includes:

• 4 Days & over 20 Seminars & Workshops - Attendees learn the secrets of hit songwriting from the best in the business.
  
• Song Pitching to Top Publishers - A truly unique opportunity for attendees to pitch their songs directly to the Publishers.
  
• On-Site Recording and Production - Attendees learn and work with our hit producers in the on-site studio.
  
• Live Attendee Performances - Showcasing original material to the pros, attendees and public.
  
• Exclusive Song Contest - 'Attendees Only' song contest with great prizes.
  
• Networking with Industry Pros and Hit Songwriters - Attendees connect with the career makers one-on-one.
