Description

You can send your application to the Cultural Department by e-mail or, in exceptional cases, by post.

If you send your application by post, the date of receipt is valid and not the postmark. As the documents cannot be returned, we ask that you only submit copies of sound recordings if you send them by post.

Please send your application by e-mail to the e-mail address below. Please refer to the detailed information on the application procedure in the information sheet on the call for applications for rental subsidies for music rehearsal rooms.

If you share a room with other people or ensembles, only the main tenant can apply.

In the case of ensembles, the person listed as the main tenant in the tenancy agreement submits the application.

The amount of the grant for a music rehearsal room is based on the size of the rented usable space of the room according to the following staggered scheme:

Rented usable area of the rehearsal room:

• up to 15 square metres: 128 euros subsidy per month
• up to 30 square metres: 158 euros subsidy per month
• up to 60 square metres: 216 euros subsidy per month
• over 60 square metres: 274.50 euros subsidy per month

The support for musicians through this rent subsidy is limited to three years.

Prerequisites

Musicians from Munich (as individuals or ensembles) whose work is demonstrably centred in Munich can apply for a rent subsidy. The residence and the rented rehearsal room must be located in the MVV area. Permanent ensembles can apply if they have been in existence for at least one year.

Professional musicians will be considered.
