The legal and insurance implications of staging a concert.
Before staging a concert in a locality, there are some areas that need to be considered like:
• Organizational structure and legal status • Event Ownership • Contracts and agreements • Licences and permission • Insurance
Organizational Structures
There are five types of

A limited company has named directors whose financial liability is either limited by guarantee or by shares. Setting up this kind of organisation involves to comply additional costs and time in order to comply to the company law.
! Charitable Status
Organisations with charitable purposes can apply for charitable status. Benefits include tax advantages and the ability to receive donations from charitable trusts. To qualify for a charitable status, the organisation need to deliver a clear educational or social benefit to the public.
Event Ownership
You must establish who actually owns the event and therefore has the various rights and liabilities associated with it. It must be clear if whether you have the right to enter into any contracts with third parties on behalf of the event.
Sanctioning
In some cases, it may be necessary
It will last for four hours and my goal is to sell as many tickets as possible, as selling every ticket would give me around £20,000, which would greatly contribute towards paying for the costs. Even without reaching this ideal, it allows for a far greater expansion in all areas of the project. The launch party will also provide some advertisement for my product, as the marketing ideas should build up enough attention for people to acknowledge my product. The launch party will also be used as an opportunity to sell merchandise, as people would associate the merchandise to the artist, and the memory of attending the live event. This is a key opportunity to sell merchandise, as it is the beginning of an artist's career, and merchandise from the beginning of an artist's career can be both a sentimental, memorable object, as well as a collectors object, and both hold values in different ways. In order to transport instruments and musicians to and from the venue, travel would cost around £200 to rent a vehicle for a weekend. This would be vital, as it is a cheap and efficient way to get everything to the live performance, and without it, there would be no live
To create a public limited company, the directors must apply to the stock exchange council, which will check their accounts.
Planning a successful concert requires imagination in addition to an understanding of the goals and logistics of concert presentation. An open and informed mind can make the difference between triumph and disaster. It was imperative
As an Event Manager of ABC London Events Co., I would like to announce that I am planning to arrange and organize either a Classical Music Event in Kensington Town Hall or an open Concert a popular band in Hyde Park, celebrating our 5 successful years of our performance in our company since its launch in September, 9th 2009. This event will be done as a motivational and thankful movement to our workforce and employees for their outstanding and truthful performance to enhance our company to its top success.
I enjoy listening to a variety of all kinds of music. However, interestingly, through whole my life, I have never attended many classical concerts before; especially classical saxophone ones. Compared to all the other concerts that I have gone to, the saxophone studio recital was a definite change in atmosphere. The Dana Concert Series presented the YSU saxophone studio recital in the Butler Institute of American Art. The students of Dr. James C. Umble performed at 12:15 in the prepossessing building. The room filled with many loved ones, students, faculty, and bystanders. Everyone remained very quiet waiting for the show to begin as the performers warmed up for a little while off to the side of the stage.
Holding an event is a very rewarding exercise provided everything runs according to plan. However things can go wrong and the consequences to the event organiser can be very serious. Events that are well organised are great and fun and encourages audience and visitors to come back for more. Badly organised will be remembered by many but for all the wrong reasons. Organising an event can be a frightening prospect, however with good
The promoter is responsible for the organization of the live show and their agreement with artists consists of two parts. One part is dedicated to the settlement of date, fee structure and other important features of the show. The other part focuses on the description of artist’s accommodation and other featured details. The role of promoter is to fulfill his obligations within the borders of this contract. The record companies have played limited part in the promotion of the tours in previous years, although following the rapid decline of the recording industry after
In the past few decades there have been many developments in the live music events industry, which have led to live music events growing to be global events. (Goldblatt, J., 2002) There are several reasons for this development in the music events industry, many of them closely connected to developments in other sectors that influence the business of live music events. In this essay we will discuss the commercial, social, legal,
First, we need to start from where agreement comes into place. As a concert producer, you need to think about selecting a artist or artists for the performance. Also the date in which you wish to have the artist make the appearance. You will need to pick a date that will give you enough time to work out all the bugs and prepare accordingly for this event.

For this concert report I chose to go to a performance of student composers held at the Kimball Recital Hall. I chose this one because I wanted to see some of the talent that my peers have in the music realm, and also it was one of the only concerts I have been able to attend because I usually work at night. It was impressive to hear pieces composed by students. I cannot imagine creating something as complex as a musical composition, much less actually performing it, so this aspect of the concert was particularly awe-inspiring. There was a large attendance, and I think that much of the audience consisted of friends of the composers and/or performers. I went with three friends, who I convinced by telling it would be interesting to see
This semester I have experience many live musical performances. Some of these performances have let me down but for the most part, these performances have been everything I ever expected. My two favorite performances this semester were Festival Vallenato and Ultra Music Festival. Although these two types of music are different in every way possible, the people and the performers are exactly where I feel I am in the right place.
On Thursday April 25, 2013 , I attended a jazz vocal concert at the Music Concert Hall. The first vocal ensemble opened up the performance with a slow rhythmic song called Blue Skies. It began with vocals and I noticed a light auxiliary percussion and drum rhythm. Also, the bass guitarist used walking bass and the piano and electric guitar joined in as well. The first song also consisted of two soloist Regina and Chantel who took the front stage to show off their chops. After the solo performances they fell back into the vocal sections and finished off the song as a complete band. The second performance had a piano opening which led to vocals joining in at the same time as the rhythm section. This performance
Successful concerts are what performers and organizer and audiences all hope for. This not only means the thoughtful programming of quality music, but also a smoothly run performance and production. Therefore, a lot of planning and making sure that everything is in order is the key to a successful all-out concert (Hudson, 2012). According to Vertudez, one of our interviewees, “Planning ahead of time [is the most important thing in organizing an event]. There could be some difficulties in setting up the facilities if you would not plan ahead
Organizing a concert is a collection of experience lessons learnt from the past failures because stepping stones to success only if learning goes along with failure. We hope that this document will be a bare bone instruction list for concert organizing and a check list for the experience.
