Presenting KENYAMUSICWEEK 2013 WELCOME:
T
en years ago, KENYA MUSIC WEEK was established to help develop the Kenya Music Industry into a professional, transparent and profitable business for all; via the focused co-operation of all industry Stakeholders (i.e. musicians, producers, promoters, distributors, consumers, government and non-government organisations).
Since then, nine Annual KENYA MUSIC WEEKs have seen over 455 entertainment Companies promoting their Goods & Services at the Trade Exhibition, over 600 industry Professionals attending free Educational Workshops and over 450 Artists performing on the Showcase Stage. So if you’re one of the 93,000 Visitors who have attended the last nine Annual KENYA MUSIC WEEKs, welcome back! And if you’re a newcomer, well... this is what you’ve been missing!!

FOR SHOP-A-HOLICS:
E

And there are no better Christmas gifts for that someone special (or yourself!) than ORIGINAL proudly Kenyan Music & Merchandise. So if you’ve been looking everywhere for that new Album all year, you’ll be sure to find it here and maybe even get it Autographed!
And there’s plenty to choose from with Kenya’s top Record Labels and Music Distributors offering local and international music for every taste. Plus, some of Kenya’s top Fashion Houses can have you dressed to rock that New Year’s Eve party in the gear your favourite Celebs wear! And speaking of parties, check out exhibiting suppliers of Sound & Lighting and Talent (i.e. Artists, Bands, Dancers, Deejays, Emcees, etc) to make your next Bash the talk of the town!
