"Sharing Passion & Performance" at Musikmesse and ProLight+Sound 2018

Yamaha is getting ready to entertain you! This year we are doing it differently as we want to demonstrate our ‘Passion for Music’. Come and visit us in the Portalhaus at Frankfurt Musikmesse to see a large range of new products featuring the latest technology and new exciting features. We have made our booth a more exciting place to be with many activities designed not only to inform but also to entertain.

There will be live performances from great artists and a range of other exciting activities including ‘learn to play’, keynote speakers (talking about the future of music) and our own unique Yamaha ‘Late Night Show’ running all day that will be covering a wide range of music related topics all in an entertaining style. Furthermore we will offer songwriters the rare chance to meet A&R managers from major record labels to get feedback on their own songs and qualify for the finals of the European Songwriting Awards. Do not miss this great opportunity!

Our two roving musician reporters - Parisa Tarjomani and Luca Hänni - will be exploring the Yamaha passion for music by interviewing visitors and artists, as well as taking part in the many fun events.

Come visit us in the Portalhaus (next to Hall 11) 11th – 14th April.

We also participate in Prolight+Sound 2018 at Frankfurt Messe from 10th April to 13th April in Hall 3.1 / Stand E50.
