The MixUp Kicks Off Auditorium 2026 for A Full Year of Connection, Education, and Community

Great careers can’t happen in isolation.

At Auditorium, we believe that the music industry’s future is built by people who connect, collaborate, and grow together. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce Auditorium 2026 will include a full year of programming designed to help artists, producers, songwriters, and industry professionals find their people, level up their business skills, and create music that lasts.

And it all kicks off on Tuesday, April 21 with The MixUp, a free, curated meetup for artists and producers, presented with our partners at AME Industries. Learn more about our first event of the year here.

The MixUp is a structured evening of:

• A fireside chat & workshop with industry experts on how creative partnerships actually work (featuring Rebekah Espinosa of RX Ownly, Mitchell “Merch” Cohen of AME Industries, and our special guests).
• Networking designed to create meaningful matches bwtween songwriters and artists with producers.
• Drink and food specials, brought to you by The Monkey Barrel and Flecha Azul Tequila.
• A chance to win a free studio session at Dreamspace Studios

The Full 2026 Lineup

The MixUp is only the beginning. Here’s what’s coming:

We know that a thriving music industry can’t be built in a single weekend. It grows through consistent connection, education, and support for everyone who makes the music ecosystem work. That’s why our year‑round programming is designed for every role (artist, producer, songwriter, engineer, manager, venue owner, label executive) and every level of expertise, from first‑time creators to seasoned professionals. If you’re learning the basics of publishing, looking for your next collaborator, or ready to mentor the next generation, you’ll find a place here. We don’t gatekeep, we build infrastructure. And we invite you to grow with us, all year long.
