Our Aims

1. To establish a national network and voice for music organisations and musicians in Ireland.
2. To advocate for support and policies for music at a national level.
3. To work for the establishment of a music hub* in Dublin and equivalent spaces in other centres around Ireland.
4. To campaign for proper pay for musicians.
5. To further the provision for music from Ireland in Irish broadcasting and media.
6. To support the development of the Irish independent record label sector.

Future meetings will take place throughout Ireland. See musicallianceireland.ie for details as they are confirmed.


*A music hub is a space for rehearsal, collaboration, offices, equipment, recording, storage and performance. It's a creative space where the music community can work together.
