FOCUS Wales was established to provide the annual new music showcase event for the Welsh Music Industry. Our core work centers around the delivery of our international multi-venue showcase festival taking place in Wrexham each year, which places the music industry spotlight firmly on the emerging talent that Wales has to offer the world, alongside a selection of the best new acts from across the globe. FOCUS Wales 2025 will mark the festival’s 15th year, and will welcome over 22,000 people to the city, building upon 2024′s record attendance across a jam-packed weekend of events. There’s no place like Wrexham during FOCUS Wales, as we showcase 250+ artists from across the world, fill out a variety of spaces and music venues, using 20 stages, and hosting a full schedule of interactive industry sessions, and film screenings, throughout the festival. We also deliver a number of international FOCUS Wales events throughout the year under the #WelshMusicAbroad banner.
