Based on delegate feedback, WOMEX has developed a new method of submitting proposals for WOMEX 15, using a tailor-made proposal system created in collaboration with the independent company Brumedje, located on the Cabo Verdean islands.

The Showcase Festival and Conference selection is made each year by a group of seven Jury members - the famous 7 Samurai, cherry-picked especially from within the international music community. The Film programme will be curated by the WOMEX film team.

WOMEX 2015 will take place in Budapest, Hungary from 21 to 25th October 2015
