My Live Guide 2026

My Live Guide

My Live Guide is a curated guide dedicated to live music, cultural venues, and memorable listening experiences across Europe.

Rather than functioning as a simple event database, My Live Guide focuses on places where music, atmosphere, hospitality, and artistic identity come together to create experiences worth travelling for.

The project is designed for curious listeners, cultural travellers, musicians, and anyone seeking meaningful encounters with live performance.

About My Live Guide

Our Philosophy & Manifesto

We believe that great music is inseparable from the places that host it.

A small jazz club, a historic theatre, an intimate listening room, or a contemporary performance space can become destinations in their own right.

My Live Guide highlights venues where artistic quality, atmosphere, and respect for performers are treated as essential values. We explore venues that deserve attention. Each featured location is presented through editorial content, practical information, and cultural context, helping visitors understand not only what happens there, but why it matters.

  • Music Venues: Jazz clubs, listening rooms, concert halls, cultural centres, theatres, and independent performance spaces.
  • Cultural Experiences: Recommendations are selected for their authenticity, artistic relevance, and contribution to local cultural life.

The Concept: Traveling for Music

Music can be the reason to travel.

My Live Guide helps visitors discover destinations through their cultural and musical identity. Rather than following generic tourist routes, travellers can explore cities through local venues, performances, neighbourhoods, and communities.

My Live Guide is designed to build alternatives to generic tourist routes. We craft curated itineraries mapping adjacent cultural districts, neighborhood wine bars, and communities revolving around a single venue.

For Music Professionals

We serve musicians and industry professionals seeking to better understand Europe's live music ecosystem. The platform promotes structural dialogue between artists, venues, promoters, and cultural organizations while encouraging exceptional professional standards, strict acoustic respect, and long-term relationships.

Community & Local Knowledge

The project grows through deep collaboration. Venue owners, musicians, cultural workers, writers, photographers, and local contributors all help document and preserve the diversity of Europe's live music landscape. We highly value first-hand experience: the most meaningful discoveries always come from local insiders who actively participate in the cultural life of their city.
