Our entertainment industry contributes billions of pounds each year to the UK economy. Due to COVID-19, it needs immediate help.

What needs to happen?

▪️Government-backed COVID – 19 Insurance Scheme to ensure if local lockdowns happen event organisers will recover costs and attendees will receive a refund.

▪️Government support for widespread proactive COVID -19 testing for event attendees

▪️A three-year extension to the reduced cultural VAT rate on tickets in line with DCMS recommendations

▪️Grants - not loans

▪️A specific job support scheme for live events supply chain until the government guidelines change on social distancing

At 8pm local time on 30th September, event professionals from thousands of cities across more than 25 countries will come together to Stand As One for the Global Day of Action.

The ‘baton’ will be passed across different time zones and feature creative activities, which include:

▪️Shine a Light - strategically placed shafts of white light will be beamed into the night sky, with each one signifying potential job losses.
▪️#LightItInRed - venues and structures will be illuminated red with the #WeMakeEvents signature expression of Red Alert.

▪️Inside Out – images of what would have been taking place inside a venue will now be projected onto the outside of empty venues
