SACEM Cultural Action: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Songwriters and composers can access financial support for recording projects, concert promotion, and professional development through this scheme.
This scheme provides financial assistance to help musicians advance their professional careers through various artistic activities and professional development.
Who it's for
This program is specifically designed for SACEM members who work as songwriters or composers. It is intended to support those within the music industry who are looking to further their artistic reach and professional standing through dedicated cultural action.
What you get
The scheme offers financial support to help you manage the costs of various stages of a musical career. This includes funding to assist with the recording of new material, resources for the promotion of your concerts, and general support for your professional growth within the music industry. These funds are designed to help bridge the gap between creative work and the practical expenses required to share that work with an audience.
What it costs you
While the support is designed to aid your career, there are ongoing requirements to maintain your eligibility. You must continue to pay your membership fees and ensure that your royalty tracking is kept accurate and up to date to remain in good standing with the organization.
The catch to know
The most important thing to remember is the timing of your membership. You must be a fully registered member of SACEM before you are eligible to apply for any form of aid or financial assistance. You cannot apply for these funds as a non-member.

- Confirm that you are a registered member of SACEM.
- Gather all necessary details regarding your specific project, such as recording or promotion needs.
