Open Castings for the 2025 Edition

The Tour Music Fest 2025 Begins: Sign Up Now for an Unmissable Edition!

After the fantastic 2024 edition, which concluded with the incredible TMF Grand Finale in the stunning setting of San Marino—an event that allowed countless emerging artists and bands to perform live in front of the biggest names in international music—TMF returns with many familiar features and exciting novelties. This year’s goal is to offer artists a journey full of performances, growth, training, connections, and meaningful experiences, supported by a team of tutors and coaches ready to provide personalized advice and artistic consultations.

Watch the Trailer for the New Edition

The 2024 edition left us with unforgettable memories, such as the victory of Justine Mayer, who is now preparing to participate in the final stages of the San Marino Song Contest. This prestigious event could give her the opportunity to represent San Marino at the Eurovision Song Contest 2025.

The Philosophy of the Competition

Competition exists, but you can’t feel it! The Tour Music Fest is a space where the focus is not on competing but on growing. It’s a place where artists meet and build together, defying rivalry and competition. A “Contest” where everyone can conquer their own challenges because the true victory for an artist lies in overcoming personal limits, improving, and becoming professional.

Live Audition Stops: For this new edition, the Tour Music Fest has expanded the number of cities we’ll visit during the LIVE AUDITIONS increasing from 32 to 36 stops. This is a way to be even closer to artists across Europe, from city centers to outskirts. Discover the audition locations!

The TMF Selection Phases

Participating in the Tour Music Fest means joining an exciting and formative journey. At every selection stage, TMF offers valuable and educational experiences for artists.

Step 1: Smart Audition. Artists, divided by categories—including singers, rappers, DJs, musicians, producers, and songwriters—can submit a recording and interact directly with the commission’s coaches to prepare their performances. This includes a 360-degree personalized consultation on artistic paths and professional orientation, offering artists a broader vision of their musical journey.

Step 2: Live Audition. This phase allows artists and bands to perform live in 36 European cities. Scheduled by appointment to avoid queues, artists receive further consultation after their performance, including an evaluation sheet, an artistic review, and a performance video. These tools help them track progress and receive immediate feedback.

Step 3: Final Phases. The best-selected artists and bands will participate in six days of music, performances, and masterclasses (check out last year’s program) in a fantastic atmosphere celebrating the best emerging Italian music. Finalists will engage in training sessions, motivational meetings with Berklee and TMF coaches, as well as interviews, performances, and press office support for the promotion of individual selected artists. National Finals have featured artists like Mahmood, winner of the Sanremo Music Festival, Ermal Meta, Federica Carta, Ariete, and Federica Abbate, among others.
