The Mercat de la Música Viva de Vic (MM.VV.) will hold its 27th edition from 17th to 20th September in the Osona’s capital. During these four days Vic will become the undisputed hub of Catalan music due to its stages spread throughout the city with both free and paid performances, such as the place where the trades are made, the MVLab.

The MVLab is a space that brings together programmers, institutions, companies, developers, agencies and professionals involved in live music in Catalonia. This is where many of the shows which are then displayed across the country are cooked.

This year the MM.VV. organizers have put their focus on municipal music programmers, according Marc Lloret, artistic director of the event, they are "biggest concert programmers" and will take place a specific meeting that will join the public programmers, managers and private promoters.
