2026 Official Showcase Application
Welcome Artists! Thank you for your interest in showcasing at the SERFA Conference. Our showcases connect artists with a welcoming community of presenters, venues, industry professionals, and fellow musicians. We encourage artists at all stages of their careers, especially those who have never attended SERFA, to apply. You do not need to live in the Southeast to be eligible—artists from all regions are welcome. Applications are due February 1 at 11:59pm CT, with notifications in late February/early March. We’re excited to learn more about your work!

The video should be current enough that it reflects how you plan to appear while showcasing (both band size and creative content) at the conference. The quality should be at a level that reflects your professionalism.
