Each camp lasts 5 days, with one writing session per day, resulting in a minimum of 5 songs per group by the end of the camp. Writing groups change every day to ensure maximum collaboration and creative diversity. Participants register as artists, producers, topliners, or a combination of these roles. Days typically include writing sessions, collaboration time, feedback moments, and breaks for meals and rest. Accommodation, catering, and all necessary equipment are provided on site, allowing everyone to stay fully focused on creating music, connecting with others, and finishing strong songs by the end of the camp.

Each camp has a very limited number of seats (up to 25 participants) to keep the experience personal, creative, and focused. To make the camp happen, we need at least 10 participants. Don’t miss your chance to register!”
