We did it again!! Our contribution to the #WeMakeE We did it again!! Our contribution to the #WeMakeEvents campaign. Scrolling through social media and seeing the industry pulling together and creating such a powerful national statement is INCREDIBLE!!
Whilst other industries slowly come back to a new Whilst other industries slowly come back to a new normal the events industry remains “dark” and remains without a date to reopen. The longer this goes on the more venues will close, the supply chain will disappear and  more jobs will be lost.

Without support and clear guidance from the government the UK live events industry, from suppliers, venues, technicians and performers, will be gone forever. It’s already starting to happen!!

#LetTheMusicPlay #WeMakeEvents
#WeMakeEvents - RED ALERT!! Red Alert is a campai #WeMakeEvents - RED ALERT!!

Red Alert is a campaign to raise public and media awareness in support of the live events sector which employs circa 1,000,000 highly skilled people in the UK, all of whom have had no work for the past four months with little likelihood of restarting until Spring 2021. The sector includes a huge supply chain of companies ranging from event production, audio, lighting, video, logistics, planning, transportation and some of the world’s leading technology manufacturers. ​

Without major immediate support from government, the entire supply chain is at risk of collapse. Live events around the world and across the entire landscape of major festivals, landmark theatres, to grassroots venues and business events have been devastated by COVID -19. ​

We will once again be illuminating our unit in red to show our support for the campaign on the 11th August.
