10th ANNIVERSARY NEW SKOOL RULES IRL OCT 7TH-9TH IN ROTTERDAM, THE NETHERLANDS

New Skool Rules celebrates our 10TH edition after two successful digital editions and 7 physical editions, starting in 2009. Even though Corona has forced us to pivot into 2 digital editions, we’ve always understood the importance of staying connected and maintaining a structural dialogue with the urban music community globally. We’ve been providing up and coming urban creatives with IG Live masterclasses and interviews, but also made sure they received professional feedback to their songs through our popular zoom demo-listening sessions with important Movers & Shakers from the Music Industry.

In the past 9 editions, we’ve celebrated musical excellence from across the globe with award winning acts like LMFAO, Rock City (Locked Away feat. Adam Levine), Nico & Vinz (Am I wrong), Fais (Hey) and Nicole Bus performing on our festival stages, before their rise to fame! We’ve been giving the opportunity to entertain more than 75.000 festival enthousiasts and conference attendees, from over 25 countries so far and we can’t wait to celebrate this 10th edition with everybody. 

New Skool Rules still aims to create a platform for SHARING AND GAINING KNOWLEDGE, NETWORKING, DOING BUSINESS AND HAVING FUN!!! This 10th edition will feature a massive writingcamp with over 200 creatives involved leading up to the actual Festival and Conference. Due to the uncertainty surrounding the Corona Virus, we decided to celebrate our anniversary from the 7th – 9th of October 2022 in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. 

New Skool Rules has always been very successful in bringing out the Music Industry’s Movers & Shakers as speakers for the different panels, workshops and masterclasses. The 10th edition, will headline some of your all time favorites, but also a lot of new and exciting speakers from the social media and music tech space.

The festival part also features tomorrow’s superstars before they blow up like R. City (Locked Away feat. Adam Levine), Nico & Vinz (Am I wrong) and Fais (Hey feat. Afrojack).
