About FBD
Built by the industry, for the industry
FBD is the annual meeting point for the business behind nightlife and entertainment. For two days, the people building the industry come together to exchange knowledge, create new connections and move business forward.
Our mission
To bring the industry together to share knowledge, create opportunities and shape what comes next.
Our story
From 300 to 3,000 in five editions
FBD started in 2022 with a simple idea: to create a place where the industry could come together to talk openly about the business behind nightlife and entertainment.
Five editions later, FBD has grown from 300 attendees to more than 3,000, moving from Veles e Vents to the City of Arts and Sciences in 2026 as the community continued to grow.

Founding partner
Fourvenues works with the industry. FBD brings it together.
FBD was created by Fourvenues after years of working closely with the people behind nightlife and entertainment. That proximity to the industry helped shape FBD: a place to bring those people together, share what they know and have the conversations that matter to the business.
Born inside the industry
Fourvenues works with the venues, festivals and promoters who fill the room.
An independent programme
FBD was built as a long-term commitment to the industry, not a one-off event.
A long-term commitment
FBD is Fourvenues' investment in the industry as a whole, not a one-off event.
