Newsletter #1 July 2018

In our aim of creating bridges and disseminating useful info for the community of world and traditional music we launch this Mapamundi’s monthly newsletter. We hope you’ll find it useful and if you have any suggestion of contents for next editions, let us know. Thanks for your attention. 


#TREMENDAGENDA, THE NEW GLOBAL AGENDA
#TremendAgenda is the global world music festivals and programming agenda, elaborated by Mundofonías team.
Desde su lanzamiento a comienzos de Junio, #TremendAgenda ha presentado 47 festivales de todo el mundo. Cada entrada de la web es una edición del festival, de manera que no se trata de una base de datos de festivales, sino de una agenda calendarizada con eventos históricos y en curso, con un enfoque global.
