Preview: Dutch music at Mundial Montréal 2021
This year's Mundial Montréal, North America’s World Music Summit, takes place from 18-28 November 2020, both online and in Montréal, Canada. We're excited to share a preview of the Netherlands-based artists and groups that will be showcased at next year's edition.
Mundial Montréal operates as a springboard for some of the best world music talent emerging from Canada and beyond, and has a highly developed network of international presenters. With a thoughtfully curated program of artists, networking activities and inspiring conversation, Mundial Montréal has established itself as the go-to event in North America for world music discovery and professional opportunities.
