This timely seminar considered the future for the live entertainment sector in the UK.
Delegates discussed the shape of incoming Agent of Change legislation and considered wider licensing issues, as well as assessed priorities for addressing further challenges facing an increasingly complex and competitive sector.
This included issues around access to finance, conditions on the live scene for emerging artists and the potential implications of Brexit, particularly around touring and accessing new markets.
Attendees also examined issues around widening the socio-economic value of live entertainment - including around access, affordability and tourism.
Further sessions explored increasing opportunities for innovation presented by tech, digital and new, immersive ways of experiencing live, as well as look at the potential impact of new rules around ticketing and what further industry and policy action might be needed to combat ticket-touting.
