Music x Media is a premiere creative business conference and showcase festival based in Finland, committed to bridging the worlds of Music, Entertainment, and Event Industries. We are currently seeking interns to join our team for Music x Media 2024, which will take place from October 2nd to October 4th, 2024, in Tampere, Finland.
The event is crafting a groundbreaking platform and community for creative professionals and companies, fostering cross-sector collaboration and innovation. Music x Media has been running in Tampere since 1989. At the same time with Music x Media, Finland’s leading showcase music festival, Lost In Music brings together artists, bands, and music enthusiasts to see the most inspiring new musical talent on the verge of their breakthrough.
The interns are primarily assigned to two different roles: one for production and the other for communications/marketing. Tasks in both roles may overlap between production and communications.
Productional tasks may include coordinating speakers, managing venue production, among others. Communication tasks may involve creating social media content, graphic design, and writing.
The specific roles and tasks of the interns are designed to align with their aspirations, skills, and developmental goals.
We expect our interns to be:
- Positive problem solvers and reliable individuals
- Capable of handling pressure
- Proficient in both written and spoken Finnish and English
- Skilled in interacting with diverse individuals in various environments
- Passionate about culture and events!
The internship for Music x Media typically spans 2-3 months, ideally split between spring and October 2024. The primary period with the most hours will occur in August/September, with the rest of the internship being part-time. The duration, start and end times, hours, and part-time arrangements can be negotiated to accommodate the interns’ study and/or work schedules.
Last year’s communication intern, Miia, reflects on her internship experience as follows:
”I learned a great deal about event production and communication, as well as its various stages. I had the opportunity to engage in diverse communication tasks and develop myself in this field. The best part of the internship was undoubtedly our fantastic team and the culmination of our hard work, the Music x Media event itself!”
At the three-day Music x Media and Lost in Music event, participants are inspired by current discussions and music, accelerate business, and network. In October, Tampere expects over 1,500 conference attendees, thousands of fans of new music, over 100 speakers, and artists.
Most of the event’s pre-production takes place in Helsinki, partly remotely, but living in Helsinki is not mandatory. During the event week in October, the entire team works in Tampere.
Please complete the application form and submit your CV by April 1, 2024.
