"Harmony Festival & Skyline Music are very excited to be bringing a live music showcase and a little slice of "Harmony" to this year's IMFCON,” said Sean Ahearn, Director of Development & Programming, Harmony Festival. “Given the nature of the event and the high caliber of attendees we thought it would be great to produce an event that would appeal to a wide demographic and provide not only a great networking environment but a fun away for attendees to be entertained. Live music, DJ's, visuals, magicians and a marching band----what an excellent way to celebrate the conference being in Las Vegas!"

The 2010 International Music Festival Conference will feature top industry leaders and directors attending including: Live Nation UK, Skyline Music, CMT, SunFest, New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Foundation, Bluegrass Festival, Harmony Festival, High Sierra Music Festival, AC Entertainment, Vans Warped Tour, Old Settlers Music Festival, ZUMIX, Voice of America, Mountain Groove Productions, Pitchfork Festival, and many more.

“I'm excited to have helped put together a live music showcase, with some outstanding talent, for this year's IMFCON,” said Mark Lourie, VP of Development, Skyline Music, LLC. “When I got involved with the conference last year I was surprised that the music end of things, or a marketplace with Agents had not yet been part of the event. I think this great show we've put together will inspire all involved to bring the talent and agent piece solidly on board for years to come.”
