From enthusiastic gig-goers out on the weekend to the industry dedicated to making the music you love, it is clear that Music Moves Europe. The EBBA are one of the ways the EU celebrates European popular and contemporary music, bringing the artists, the industry and the fans together to celebrate the very best of European musical diversity.
15th edition of the EBBA
Every year, 10 European artists receive an EBBA in recognition of their success in countries other than their own. This success is measured through a combination of airplay, sales, live performances in Europe, and position in the European Border Breakers Charts. To be eligible for the 2018 awards, the artists must have achieved border-breaking success with their first international release in Europe between 1st August 2016 and 31 July 2017 and originate from a country participating in the EU's Creative Europe programme.
