🔥 APPLICATIONS NOW OPEN! 🔥
You read that correctly! We are delighted to announce that applications are now open for M2TM Manchester 2027.
Once again, we’ll be holding the event at Rebellion Manchester, one of the standout venues in the whole of Manchester. We’re absolutely delighted to be working with our Rebellion family once again.
How do you apply?
Firstly, you need to have 30 minutes of original material. No covers whatsoever.
You’ll also need a good EPK (Electronic Press Kit). We cannot emphasise enough just how important this is.
Please make sure your EPK includes:
• Links to all your social media platforms
• Professional videos
• Videos of your live performances
• High quality recordings wherever possible
Ideally, your live footage should be recorded using a good quality recording device so we can get a proper feel for what you’re like as a live band.
To apply, please email your EPK to:
[email protected]
Please use “M2TM Manchester 2027” as the email subject.
This is a huge opportunity for any band. You’re guaranteed the chance to play on a big stage in front of a big crowd, and you could also earn the opportunity to play the legendary New Blood Stage at Bloodstock Festival
You could even join the ranks of this year’s winners, Technologist
We are only looking for 32 bands, but this is NOT first come, first served.
We will have a cut off date in December, after which we’ll go through all the applications and select our chosen bands.
We wish you all the best of luck and we look forward to seeing your applications flooding in.
Team M2TM Manchester
