#WeMakeEvents PLEASE SHARE! Today PLASA launch our new campaign to amplify the events industry’s voice to gain meaningful government support through the Covid-19 crisis. Our message is simple: Don't let events go dark! plasa.org/we-make-events/ youtu.be/9Gjs83Wz19M

The announcement follows warnings from the National Outdoor Events Association (#NOEA) last month that the industry was looking at irreversible damage, with many businesses unable to guarantee existence past July 2020.

Service companies providing the stages, sound, lighting, video and sets for concerts, festivals and large scale events have had no income out since March and have no prospect of working until mass gatherings can resume. Please don't forget us Mr Johnson. youtu.be/FOIGiGPntLI

It’s crucial that Rishi Sunak statement tomorrow supports live music. 210,000 people rely on concerts and festivals for employment, but we’ll be one of the last sectors to open. The UK’s live music industry is world-beating. Without support, it won’t survive #LetTheMusicPlayMusic

#rishisunak... On behalf of the 600,000+ working in live events across festivals, concerts, trade shows, theatre, business meetings and conferences, we need support or this industry simply won’t exist. And then who will organise your party conference? #WeMakeEvents #eventprofs

Some welcome general support for businesses and jobs but a lot more work to do for #event businesses and #eventprofs where trading activity is currently zero and short time working not viable. Closed sectors of the economy need specific help. Rishi Sunak

Pleased to be supporting this event...

If this happens targeted support for the events industry is needed. Many without income since Oct 2019. worse position to last year and events setting up and have unrecoverable costs. Staff brought off furlough, deposits paid.
