Starting in 2015 a new award will be added to the European Border Breakers Awards, the EBBA Best Festival Act. The new category has been added to the existing European Border Breakers Awards which are for ten European acts that have had cross border success. The first EBBA for Best festival Act will be handed to the British band Jungle during the EBBA show in the Stadsschouwburg, Groningen on Wednesday January 14, 2015.

Within ETEP, an initiative of Eurosonic Noorderslag, 90 festivals, among them Glastonbury, Exit, Sziget and Lowlands, work together with European radio stations and other media to stimulate the circulation of festival shows by European acts.
