After years of continuous growth, the Making Vinyl conferences have firmly established themselves as the essential meeting point for professionals eager to explore the forces shaping our industry — from economic trends to technological innovations.
In 2025, vinyl is no longer a niche product; it stands as a vibrant, driving force in the physical music market. With this evolution comes the responsibility to ensure that Making Vinyl remains the most relevant and forward-thinking gathering for industry players worldwide.
At our 2024 edition, we introduced new formats and placed a stronger emphasis on sustainability, along with the artistic and cultural significance of vinyl — all while continuing to focus on manufacturing and technology. The 2025 edition will build on this foundation, but with an even more open and forward-looking approach.
To truly understand our industry’s future, we must also understand the broader ecosystem — from sales and marketing to the evolving role of physical media in a digital world. This future is shaped by technology, sustainability, and culture, but it also requires bold thinking, fresh perspectives, and a willingness to look beyond the boundaries of our own sector.
Making Vinyl Europe 2025 will therefore open its doors to businesses directly and indirectly connected to the vinyl industry, learning from their experiences, challenges, and innovative solutions. Through a dynamic mix of panel discussions, presentations, and interactive workshops, we aim to create our most creative and forward-thinking event yet — a program designed to honor the importance vinyl has achieved while charting a bold path for its future.
