🏃🏽‍♀️ Leap into the Evo Party Issue (and prices going up)



Happy Thursday, PM Family, and happy Leap Day!

Leap Day only comes around once every four years, but thankfully Podcast Movement events happen every year, including Evolutions 2024 less than four weeks away!

And when Evo week gets here, it will have it all: education for creators and industry pros, the top service providers and equipment manufacturers in podcasting showing you their latest and greatest, and yes…the parties!

This week, we’re talking parties, reminding you of the first-ever PodMov Podfront, and more announcements and updates.

Let’s leap into it!


EVENT NEWS

It’s Party Time – Don’t Miss These Events

Podcast Movement is known for having the best events in podcasting, and the networking and parties are big parts of that reputation! Check out what we’ve got planned for this March in Los Angeles.

Since 2019, our friends at iHeart have made sure that every Podcast Movement event has one big night where attendees can let their hair down and have a good time, and Evo24 will be no exception. Join us Wednesday night, just steps away from the host hotel, at Tom’s Watch Bar in LA Live. They’re serving up great drinks, delicious bites, and of course there will be good music!

Calling all creators to the Creators Happy Hour courtesy of Glassbox. They’re bringing together all creators (and the rest of the attendees at Evolutions) for a casual gathering when the first day of sessions wrap up on Wednesday afternoon. Join us at the Evolutions Main Stage!

Get your Evolutions week started right by joining your fellow attendees in the hotel lobby. We’ll have some music, free drink tickets, and lots of new and familiar faces for you to hang out with.

It’s not a party, but it’s sure to make your Evo24 experience better when you pick up your badge before the fun begins. Thanks to Magellan for making our early badge pickup possible, plus if you pick up your badge early, they’ll be giving out some exclusive goodies during the event. Fortune favors the early arrivers!



Join Us for Evolutions this March and PM24 next August!

Join podcasters and industry professionals from around the world for our two big events next year.

Evolutions is March 26-29 in Los Angeles, and Podcast Movement 2024 is August 19-22 in Washington, D.C. Learn more about the differences here.

Both events feature hundreds of educational sessions across curated tracks, an innovative expo hall showcasing the latest tools and technologies, and of course the best networking and parties in podcasting.



We’re bringing ad buyers together with publishers Next Month!

What happens when you bring together podcasting’s top publishers with the biggest brands, advertisers, and agencies in media? The first-ever Podfronts at Podcast Movement.

Podcast Movement is excited to host our inaugural podcast upfront-style event this March 26 at Evolutions, live from Los Angeles, CA.

Different from standard upfronts, PodMov mashes together upfront style presentations, education from Sounds Profitable (see below), interactive publisher activations, and the best elements of your favorite networking events, to create a can’t-miss audio advertiser event.

This event takes place before the start of Evolutions. To participate,

  • Publishers must sign up in advance to be featured or to attend the event as a presenting or supporting publisher. Email us to learn more here.
  • Brands, ad buyers, and agency attendance is invite-only. If you’d like to apply for an invite as a qualified buyer, click here.

We hope this first edition is a great success and will lead to more Podfronts in the future, which will expand to even more participants.

IN THE COMMUNITY

Last Call to Host a Community Meetup

Each year, Podcast Movement has always been the best place in the world to meet up with other podcasters and podcast industry professionals. This year at Evolutions 2024, we're continuing something we started last year with our official Community Meetups.

What's a Community Meetup, you ask? Community Meetups are hosted by event attendees, have a focused topic or area of interest, and will show up on the official event schedule so that other attendees can join up.

And all new for 2024, we’re debuting Meetup Night on Thursday, March 28. We’ll have dedicated rooms, hang-out space, music, and drinks to help make your meetups even better! Stay tuned for more.

Your hosted meetup can take place during Meetup Night or can be around the hotel bar or restaurant, and we’ve even got some dedicated zones throughout the Evolutions Expo.

Interested in learning more about hosting your own community meetup? Check it out below!



Next week we announce our final main stage session, and a whole lot more! Don’t forget to save your spot to Evolutions before prices go up tonight, and we’ll see you then!

Grateful,
Team Podcast Movement
