2-5 June 2020, Palais des Festivals, Cannes PRESS RELEASE MULTI GRAMMY-WINNING CUBAN SUPERSTARS GENTE DE ZONA & MAGNUS MEDIA’S MICHEL VEGA JOIN MIDEM 2020 LINEUP Paris, January 28 2020 – Midem, the home of the global music community, today announces an exclusive Q&A between two powerhouses of Latin music: Magnus Media’s CEO & Co-Founder Michel Vega and Cuba’s global phenomenon, Gente de Zona, at this year’s event, 02-05 June, Palais des Festivals, Cannes. In this exclusive session, multi Grammy award-winning Cuban duo, Gente de Zona, will discuss their international rise, with Michel Vega, leading Latin music executive, who co- founded Magnus Media with Marc Anthony. The conversation will be the highlight of Midem’s Latin American Forum, as Midem Director, Alexandre Deniot, explains, “For the past few years, Midem has been shining a light on the extraordinary rise of Latin artists on the global stage. It’s been fascinating seeing their evolution into global mainstream and I can’t wait for this year’s Midem Latin American Forum to explore what the next frontier for Latin music will be. From Daddy Yankee to Anitta, Visitante, Dalex or Elvis Crespo, we’ve had the honour of welcoming leading Latin acts at Midem and I’m thrilled that Michel Vega will join us with Gente de Zona, for what I’m sure will be a very inspiring conversation.” Founded by artist-entrepreneur, Marc Anthony, who himself successfully crossed over to the mainstream in the 90s/2000s, and Michel Vega, a veteran music executive from the live sector, Magnus Media is built on a partnership making it completely relevant.
