With the first-ever CreatorFest just weeks away, it's time to dive into all the exciting opportunities creators can expect at the event. Whether you're looking to enhance your presence on major platforms, learn from industry experts, or find new ways to connect with brands, CreatorFest is packed with valuable sessions and hands-on advice tailored just for you.
Build your presence on Snapchat with Snap School LIVE
One of the key highlights of CreatorFest will be Snapchat's Snap School LIVE on the Creator Stage. Snapchat’s team will share essential tips and mentorship to help creators navigate the platform more effectively and build a sustainable presence on Snap. With Snapchat’s Snap Star Collab Studio, brands can connect with creators for advertising campaigns, but understanding the exact steps to becoming a Snap Star can be a barrier to entry. If you’re interested in boosting your revenue on Snapchat, this session will give you the tools and insights to take the next steps toward success.
Personalised Consultations with Twitch
For those in the streaming space, Twitch is also making a big appearance with Creator Drop-Ins scheduled throughout the day. Whether you're already on Twitch or are just exploring the idea of starting a channel, attendees can book one-on-one consultation sessions with Twitch experts, where they’ll review your channel and offer targeted advice on how to grow your audience and improve your content.
Building Sustainable Income with Substack
If you’re interested in writing, or maybe you want to venture into podcasting, Substack has you covered with multiple sessions throughout CreatorFest.
Start your day with an insightful panel featuring Farrah Storr, Head of Writer Partnerships at Substack, and Anna Newton, creator and founder of The Anna Edit. They’ll explore how creators can reclaim control of their audience and develop sustainable income streams in the fast-changing creator economy.
For those wanting to brainstorm their Substack strategy, you can book your one-to-one Substack Strategy Session and discuss ways to boost your position as a creator on the platform.
If you prefer a masterclass, Substack will share practical tips to help creators evolve on the platform, whether you’re completely new to Substack or already established but eager to grow further.
Mental Health Support
At CreatorFest, we wanted to take a holistic approach to the creator economy. Meaning we’re not just focusing on strategy, data, and networking, but also supporting all the issues that matter to you as a creator. That’s why Samaritans will be speaking at one of our voicebox sessions, sharing how creators can look after their mental well-being and maintain healthy boundaries in their work.
Expert Insights from Industry Leaders
We have even more incredible sessions for creators.
Grace Keeling (AKA GK Barry), beloved TikTok personality and trailblazer in the UK’s female podcast scene, will be joined on the Big Picture stage by Dominic Smales, a pioneer in the creator economy, alongside another very special guest speaker, in their session “The Difference A Decade Makes: Bridging the Creator Economy”.
Hop over to the Creator Stage and Amy Bryant-Jeffries, Managing Director of Outreach Talent Group (OTG), will be speaking about how creators can master the algorithm and get noticed by the right people. Whether it is getting selected for a brand campaign or attracting the attention of a talent agency, Amy will be sharing insider tips to help you stand out from the crowd.
Later in the day, creator Luke Vernon will be diving into his signature A-G-A strategy - Acceptance, Guidance, and Action - and share how this helped him drive his success on social media. With over 2.4 million TikTok followers, Luke is one of the most popular creators in the UK and will leave you with an understanding of how to level up your impact in the creator space.
