Current & Past Opportunities

Below is a list of events being run or partnered by CMEAS in 2011/12. Click on each event to find out more and how to apply. Currently we only have Spring Tour 2012 open this year. All other events for 2012 will be posted later on this year (basically after we have Lancaster Music Festival behind us as that involves a lot of our spare time, i.e. November or December 2011).

Both the Spring and Autumn UK tours are recurring events (latter running every year since 2001) and typically are posted one month after current event has happened.

As in all CMEAS events, your application fee is considered an application to our artist roster. Artists who pass our peer review automatically join our exclusive roster and get offered bookings and opportunities not listed on this site (often free). If you are interested in partnering a tour exchange or other event with us , e.g. a festival, please go to partnership for more information. Please note only under exceptional circumstances do we book unilateral tours (we get about 100 requests a week for this from acts not even on our roster) and never for acts that are not already on our roster.

*Note: All of the current events this year will run again in 2012. Application for each new tour starts one month after the previous.
