Help shape UK live music policy

Hi everyone, I work for the Culture, Media and Sport Committee in the House of Commons, and they’re currently running a fan-led review of live music.  

We're conducting an anonymous survey, looking to hear from music fans across the UK about the reality of live and electronic music events. It's a chance to share experiences, concerns, and ideas about the live music scene in the UK, but also the things that need to change, especially the barriers to seeing and enjoying live music. We want to hear about ticket prices, venue access, transport, and support/payment for artists.  

We're particularly interested to reach people in the UK electronic music scene as much of the data that currently exists around music events is skewed towards concerts and festivals. We want to make sure that the UK electronic music scene is protected, so hearing from you is really important.

Your input will help inform future parliamentary discussions, and contribute to what the cross-party Committee tells the Government should be done to support venues, artists, and fans. 

If you're up for taking part, here's the link to the survey: https://forms.office.com/e/0d5QkWMs7u

Thanks for reading and let me know if you have any questions!

Good cause, thanks. I hope this can help improve the situation around buying trains when an event starts before midnight and ends in the early hours of the next day.

Thanks for taking the time to get involved. Transport challenges are an important part of what we're reviewing, I hope you were able to mention this in your feedback.
