Bridging Balkan Borders Vol. 5 2026 – Athens Edition
In Partnership with Stay Independent

The Bridging Balkan Borders Songwriting Camps are a series of intensive creative residencies designed to unite emerging and established artists, producers, and songwriters from across Southeast Europe. Each camp gathers a carefully curated selection of regional and international talent for several days of collaboration, mentorship, and professional development.

Participants co-write, record, and develop original material under the guidance of industry professionals, while connecting with music publishers, labels, and media partners. Beyond songwriting, the camps serve as a cultural exchange - breaking down borders, fostering long-term creative partnerships, and strengthening the identity of the Balkan independent music scene on the global stage.

Join us for a groundbreaking series of songwriting camps designed to inspire collaboration, cultural exchange, and creative innovation among songwriters and producers across Southeast Europe. Hosted in three vibrant cities, these camps offer a unique opportunity to work alongside peers and mentors in state-of-the-art facilities while celebrating the diversity and richness of Balkan music.
