MaMA renews its concept of a unique event in France, taking place over three days and nights in the 18th and 9th arrondissements of Paris. From Wednesday October 16 to Friday October 18, MaMA will offer conferences, meetings dedicated to professionals and concerts open to a wide audience in the Pigalle and Montmartre district. For three days, the heart of Pigalle and Montmartre will be beating to the rhythm of MaMA, which will take over a number of concert halls and other atypical venues to welcome the general public and professionals from the French and international music industries.
The days are reserved for professionals (more than 7,000 accredited attendees, representing 52 countries, were present at the 2023 event), with conferences, debates, workshops, speed-meetings, keynotes, and numerous networking activities to enable them to meet and develop collaborations.
MaMA's editorial proposal takes the form of discussions leading to the confrontation of ideas, around diversified themes and sweeping up many topical issues, both societal and technological.

The evenings are open to both professionals and the general public. For three nights, Pigalle is transformed into a giant urban music trail, with some 15 venues hosting over 180 concerts and showcases by French and international artists. MaMA's artistic program, organized in collaboration with the various players in the music sector and aimed at both professionals and the general public, whets the curiosity of some and satisfies the desires of others.
