Self-identification is important, and we understand that that we each have our own understanding of the words used to describe our own experiences. So that we can best honour your identity and experience, please describe how you identify below. This information will be used to help us build a programme that is inclusive and representative of MCM's diverse audience.
Only the ReedPop Content Team will have access to this information and your responses will be kept private and secure; the information will not be used for a discriminatory purpose. This information is not mandatory and will not impact your chances of being selected to take part.
Please be as thorough as possible with the information you provide! We want to know why we should choose you to participate on stage at MCM this November. Please be aware, we value representative panel submissions i.e. a balanced fandom debate between 5x panellists > 1x panellist ranting about a topic for 40 mins.
What makes your session unique?
What will fans enjoy about it?
What do you need from us to help you facilitate this?
For panels, we suggest no more than 6 panellists, and no more than 10 performers for musical ensembles and dance groups. If successful, we are able to provide complimentary passes to the show for the day of your session for as many people as listed here, up to the maximum number previously mentioned. You are welcome to have more people join you on stage if viable, however these passes will need to be purchased in the usual way.
Please make sure you have permission from all panellists before putting their names forward.
Doing a performance and don't have your group locked in yet? No worries, you can submit these at a later date.
Stages and show areas will be equipped with microphones and screens as standard. If you have a presentation or backing music, you'll need to bring this with you on a USB on the day.
We cannot supply backline or drums for a live band. Any specific instruments or kit required, will need to be brought with you. Please drop us an email at [email protected] if you have any questions.
If your application is successful, we want to shout about it! Please complete the below fields so we can add you to our announcement schedule and web listings as soon as possible.
Please re-read your submission and confirm all the above information is correct and suitably impressive. All good? Then tick a few more boxes and click submit! All boxes below must be checked. Any questions or concerns? Please contact [email protected].
