Finals Academy of Pop Music

The graduating students of the Academy of Pop Music operate at the heart of today’s music industry. Over the past few years, they have developed themselves as performers, creators, producers, organisers and creative entrepreneurs.

This versatility is reflected in their finals: from concerts, festivals and albums to documentaries, EP releases, magazines, performances at alternative venues, music schools and even streaming concerts taking place simultaneously in multiple locations. The finals are presented at venues such as Metropool, Wilminktheater, Broedplaats Oogst and within ArtEZ itself - each location carefully matching the unique character of the project.
