Making Vinyl 2025 brought the global vinyl community together in unforgettable ways — from New Orleans and Memphis to Haarlem and everywhere in between. We’re grateful to our speakers, sponsors, and attendees who made each event a true celebration of vinyl’s past, present, and future.

Introducing Making Vinyl Magazine
Fall 2025 Edition

What started as a simple program guide has spun into something bigger. It was so delightful, we’ve turned it into a full magazine—packed with stories that celebrate the culture, craft, and future of vinyl. From sustainability breakthroughs and anti-piracy guidelines to comeback tales and expert insights, Making Vinyl Magazine captures the heartbeat of our industry in print.

Vinyl isn’t just back—it’s evolving. And now, so is the way we tell its story.
