Viva Conference is a conference for people who don’t really like conferences, and since we don't either - we're fronting a conference in order to build a community.
Here, it’s ideas that matter, not titles or status. We bring together people with passion and drive, the ones more focused on building the future than talking about the past, the ones who live at street level, not behind glass office walls. The networks here are real. The coffee is real and the conversations are real.
We put a lot of thought into who we invite. As a small, independent - and yes, struggling - event, we can’t throw invites around. We focus on people who are relevant to our scene, to the other guests, and to the bands we book. And every year, the feedback says the same thing: this is where you meet your future collaborators, your new friends - and also remember why you love what you do.
