The Music in Africa Foundation is bringing the 3rd Music in Africa Conference for Collaborations, Exchange and Showcases (ACCES) in Accra. ACCES is a Pan-African music event held in a different African country each year, bringing together influential music industry players from across the globe to exchange ideas, discover new talent and accelerate the shaping of a vibrant music sector on the continent.

The opening night will include the Music in Africa Honorary Award ceremony, with recipients Ebo Taylor and Bibie Brew, and the first night of music showcases. ACCES showcases offer an ideal platform to discover amazing talent from across the continent, with an emphasis on emerging musicians.

For the first time ACCES 2019 is set to include musicians from the Diaspora as part of a partnership with the Reeperbahn Festival – one of Europe's largest club festival.
