ARTIST HUB

PRESENTED BY SPOTIFY

#The BIGSOUND Artist Hub is back – reimagined, expanded, and more essential than ever.

Presented by Spotify and hosted at BrewDog Fortitude Valley, the BIGSOUND Artist Hub is your home base during BIGSOUND.

It is a welcoming space designed specifically for BIGSOUND artists and their crew — packed with hands-on workshops, quiet corners to reset, structured networking, and real-time advice from industry pros. Whether you are here to connect, learn, or catch your breath between sets, the Artist Hub is where the BIGSOUND magic kicks off.

🗸 Check in with the Artist Liaison at the Concierge onsite at BrewDog.

🗸 Level up with Masterclasses, Events, and Activations running throughout the week in the BrewDog Beer Hall and BrewDog Top Level.

🗸 Head down to The Precinct and Goolwal Garden for more workshops with Industry Experts.

🗸 Drop in for industry mentoring at the Conversation Corner on the BrewDog Ground Floor.

🗸 Pick up your Artist Workbook, your companion as you navigate BIGSOUND. Use it to take notes, document your achievements, and manifest your goals.

#A WARM WELCOME FROM SPOTIFY

For Spotify, BIGSOUND is all about you, the artists. That’s why we’re proud to be supporting the Artist Hub in 2025. Championing local artists at every stage of their journey is central to what we do. It’s the driving force behind our Turn Up AUS initiative.

The BIGSOUND Artist Hub is a dedicated space to take a moment and recharge, connect with the artist community, and discover tools to support your growth.

Each morning we’ll be serving free coffee and breakfast to help you gear up for a full day of showcases, gigs, and networking.

And we are hosting a series of sessions filled with actionable insights: from navigating Spotify for Artists, to audience-building tools, to using video to reach new fans. It’s all designed to help artists connect with more listeners in Australia and around the world.

Our local Spotify team will be around all week. Come by, ask a question, and tell us about your new favourite artist at BIGSOUND. See you there!
