We want to support the music industry changemakers of the future!
Showcase your talent and vision as a musician, producer, performer, future executive or entrepreneur at our scholarship day and you could win a fully-funded scholarship to cover your course fees when studying with us.
On Saturday 25th September, come down to our Music Box campus in central London (SE1) to audition in your chosen discipline, in front of a panel of expert tutors. There will also be tours of the campus, student performances, Q&A sessions with staff, careers advice, and a jam night in our own 120-cap Music Box venue to finish off the day!
How does it work?
There will be auditions per discipline on Saturday 25th September, with the winners of each category proceeding forward to a multidisciplinary Grand Final on Friday 15th October in front of a music industry judging panel. You can only audition for one category with the winner of each category judged on merit. When registering for the day, you will have the option of choosing one discipline, and once registered, the audition specifics for each discipline will be communicated to you by email. Category winners will be contacted during the week commencing 27th September and announced on LCCM Social Media. The winner of the Grand Final will win the Scholarship, with prizes awarded to the runners up.

Covid Safety
Having operated the building successfully over the past year, we are confident in running an inclusive, exciting day which is safe for all. If you're understandably a little apprehensive about attending an event in-person, you can join online and still experience everything virtually. LCCM has a raft of COVID-secure measures in place, with sanitisation stations, ventilation and social distancing floor markers.
To help keep us all safe, we will be kindly asking that you:
- Do not attend if you or anyone in your household or recent close contacts have current symptoms of COVID-19
- Check in via the NHS QR code – if you don't have the NHS Test and Trace app, you can check in using our QR code to declare you are symptom-free
- Wear a face covering in busy spaces and keep a safe distance from people not in your household group or bubble
- Use hand sanitiser regularly and wash your hands!
- If possible, take and record a negative lateral flow test result a maximum of 24 hours before the event – you'll need to display official NHS confirmation of this either via the NHS Covid Pass or an NHS email or text message. You can get home testing kits for free via the NHS or your local pharmacy
Once you have checked in via the NHS or LCCM QR code, we will take a temperature check before you enter the building. If you have not been fully vaccinated or attend without recording a negative test result, we will kindly ask for you to wear a face covering throughout the day and observe social-distancing guidelines. We can't mandate any of these procedures but if we all keep it cool and think of one another, we'll be safer together!
