The 7th Annual Shoreline Music Summit

The 7th Annual Shoreline Music Summit returns October 11th — this time bigger, louder, and more collaborative than ever. Hosted in person in Shoreline, WA, this all-day gathering brings together musicians, producers, industry professionals, and music lovers for a full day of learning, connection, and celebration.

Presented by Sonic Guild Seattle, the Summit kicks off at Shoreline Community College with daytime programming featuring panels, artist talks, and networking focused on sustainable careers, creative tools, and the evolving music industry. Whether you're just starting out or deep in your craft, the Shoreline Music Summit is a space to ask questions, make connections, and walk away inspired.

New this year: an evening music festival showcasing local artists in high-energy, community-forward settings at Shoreline Community College, Darrell's Tavern, and London Bridge Studio . As the sun sets, the Summit transforms into a celebration of the region’s vibrant sound — open to the public and RSVP encouraged. 

Admission is free with RSVP. Space is limited for daytime programming; arrive early to guarantee entry.

Schedule and full lineup to be announced.

All events require RSVP, but arrive early to secure your spot, as capacity is limited.
