All About Music X Celebrates 10 Years of Shaping India’s Music Industry
For nearly a decade, All About Music has served as the meeting ground for artists, executives, entrepreneurs, labels, publishers, technology innovators, and creators driving India’s music ecosystem. Now, as it marks its landmark 10th edition, the conference returns with a renewed vision not just to celebrate the past, but to help define the future of music.
Scheduled to take place from August 25–27, 2026, at the Grand Hyatt Mumbai, All About Music X promises its biggest edition yet, expanding conversations around artificial intelligence, artist development, music technology, live experiences, rights management, publishing, and the rapidly evolving creator economy.
A Decade That Helped Shape India’s Music Business
Since its launch in 2017, All About Music has evolved into India’s premier B2B music conference, bringing together thousands of music professionals from India and around the world.
Across nine successful editions, the platform has welcomed globally recognized artists and industry leaders including A. R. Rahman, Arijit Singh, Shreya Ghoshal, Scooter Braun, Lyor Cohen, Javed Akhtar, and **Bhushan Kumar>, fostering conversations that have influenced every corner of the industry.
More than just a conference, it has become a platform where business meets creativity, encouraging collaboration between independent artists, labels, brands, startups, publishers, and technology companies.
Looking Ahead Instead of Looking Back
Rather than treating its tenth anniversary as a retrospective, this year’s edition is focused on the next decade of the music business.
According to Business Head Chandni Soni, the objective is to expand conversations, create more opportunities for collaboration, and reflect the changing realities of today’s music industry. Conference Director Meghana Bhogle has also emphasized that the future of music will be shaped by decisions around creativity, innovation, ownership, access, and community.

Why It Matters for Independent Artists
As India’s independent music ecosystem continues to expand, conferences like All About Music have become increasingly valuable.
Today’s artists are no longer focused solely on releasing music. They are navigating distribution, branding, publishing, sync licensing, fan communities, live performances, and international collaborations.
All About Music offers a rare opportunity to engage directly with the people building these systems while gaining practical insights into the rapidly changing business of music.
A Conference That Mirrors the Industry’s Evolution
The Indian music industry is entering one of its most transformative periods.
Artificial intelligence is reshaping workflows, regional music is finding global audiences, independent careers are becoming increasingly sustainable, and technology continues to redefine how music is discovered and monetized.
The 10th edition of All About Music arrives at precisely the right moment, bringing together the conversations that will influence where the industry heads next.
