Make Your Mark - set up and run a regular, live music night

October 29th, 2008  |  Published in News

Make Your Mark has partnered with a live music promotions company Curious Generation to find and support the next generation of music promoters. They’re looking for young people aged 18-30 from across the UK who want support to set up and run a regular, live music night in their home town or city. According to the Live Music Forum’s findings, the live music sector is the fastest growing part of the music industry yet there isn’t a single training course in the UK that provides specialist skills in the promotion of live music.

 They hope that the promoters’ scheme will provide experience, skills and contacts to would-be music promoters, helping develop and expand local music scenes and contributing to community engagement.
