MMAD’s AAA conference is a music, dance & social justice gathering that empowers artists to reach their full potential and be inspired to create positive change through their music.  Be inspired by professionals who can share secrets on how to find your place in the industry.

This year AAA is celebrating the launch of The Lounge Room, MMAD's social enterprise space in Gosford.  This place hosts incredible spoken word nights, music gigs, gaming nights, masterclasses, training events and serves up some of the best coffee around - all to raise money for MMAD's youth programs.  Alongside all the usual goodness, AAA 2016 will be shining a spotlight on this new local spot and all the ways you can get involved!

AAA features a Showcase Stage which will be filmed professionally and give you the opportunity to receive feedback from A&R in the industry.  This is a once in a lifetime opportunity.  The conference will include: Master Classes, Panels, Discussion Groups, Showcase Stages, Onsite Recording Studio, Night Concert & Much More.
