IQ 131, the latest issue of the international live music industry’s leading magazine, is available to read online now.
The November issue marks our first annual indie issue, celebrating the companies forging their own path in today’s live music business.
This edition launches the Indie Champions 2024 list (revealed tomorrow on IQ), examines the realities of running an indie company, and celebrates the anniversaries of Earth Agency and DHP’s George Akins.
Elsewhere, we bid farewell to the 10th edition of the International Festival Forum (IFF) and welcome you aboard the 37th instalment of the International Live Music Conference (aka ILM-Sea).
Meanwhile, this issue spotlights the live music business in Paris and Norway, and inspects the growing demand for festive family fun.
For this edition’s columns, Natasha Gregory (Mother Artists) examines the different ways in which people gauge success and Rob Sealy (Openstage) encourages artists to utilise data in order to make sure fans are not left disappointed during ticket on-sales.
