Winter has never been better in Miami! The Winter Music Conference is full of events featuring new artists, guest speakers and other industry professionals as they come together in celebration with a multi-day kickoff of parties, activities and events. The 2015 Winter Music Conference celebrates 30 years with music enthusiasts, artists, DJs and industry delegates from over 70 countries coming to celebrate with over 400 events, parties, seminars and workshops in Miami Beach. Established in 1985, WMC is the largest longstanding EDM and dance music industry gathering of its kind in the world. As one of the most publicized annual events in the industry, WMC generates over a billion unique viewer media impressions each year.

Held at the Deauville Beach Resort on Miami Beach, there were four packed days of excitement and entertainment.

There were also demo listening events, exhibits and a number of parties and extras.

According to the Miami New Times, "You will realize your wildest WMC and MMW dreams. You will fist-pump underwater. You will ascend to VIP status at SoBe's glossiest megaclubs. You will ride in a banana yellow limo with a rosé champagne fountain. And you will see the sun rise from an alley off NE 14th Street in downtown Miami after maxing out your credit card on Red Bull and knockoff couture sold from a shopping cart."

2016 promises to bring just as much fun and excitement as 2015, with plenty of events and opportunities for marketing and sponsorships. The dates have not been announced yet, so stay tuned!
