SUBMISSIONS ARE NOW CLOSED!! Check back soon to find out our winner for Tour China 2007!

The Planetary Group & China West Present: Tour China 2007: Midi Festival and PRC/Universal Records Demo Deal.

The Planetary Group & China West have presented shows and tours in China for the past seven years, and they are now offering the next opportunity for artists to perform in the region at the Midi Festival, in Beijing, China. One artist will be selected to perform at the festival on one of the days - and the act will be selected by Midi Festival staff. There may also be other opportunities to perform club shows outside of the festival.

The Midi Festival, the biggest regular rock gathering in China, has, in its brief history, grown to become THE festival in China, attracting upwards of 15,000 fans from across the country to take in four days of music. Bands are drawn from across China. This is your chance to join them – as one of the featured foreign bands invited to perform. Last year, the Festival hosted four stages (Main Stage, Experimental Stage, Guitar China Stage, Dance tent). The festival's website is www.midifestival.com.

The 2007 Midi Festival will take place in Haidian Park, Beijing, China, May 1-4 2007.

This year there will be two winners. One winner will receive the all
expense trip & one thousand retail ready compact discs from our sponsor, Cravedog. The other winner will receive a recording demo deal from PRC/Universal Records.

This event is exclusive to Sonicbids members, but is open to all genres and to artist's from anywhere in the world.

Planetary takes care of all logistics: visas, airfare, ground transportation, equipment rentals, permits, food and housing. The winning artist will also have time to take in the local sights: Tiananmen Square, The Great Wall, etc - all expenses paid.
