The Vibe is a paid opportunity for music lovers aged 18-25 living in SO postcodes.
Each autumn, we recruit a new Vibe Collective to programme and produce events at Turner Sims. We support them throughout the year to gain key skills and music industry experience.
The Vibe Collective transform our spaces into exciting and dynamic venues to showcase new and local talent. Acts have included student-led ensembles, Isla Croll and rap artist Baby Panna.
The next round of applications for The Vibe Collective is open until Monday 25 November 2024.
The Vibe has definitely changed how I see arts and culture in the city. Turner Sims saying you guys aged 18-25, you are going to shape the next 20 years in the city and we value your opinions - that was really special.
