Now that our final event of 2024 has concluded, we wanted to drop you a thank you for registering for Futures Forum x LIVE: The Soapbox Sessions.
With more than 250 signups, a multitude of young and emerging live music industry professionals gathered at 229 London on Tuesday, 17 September, to learn from industry stalwarts about the latest developments in the UK live music business.
Led by LIVE’s Jon Collins, panellists gave attendees the latest developments in critical sectors across the live industry, including festivals, venues, workforce, touring, sustainability and government. Speakers included Yasmin Galletti (We Are The Fair), John Drury (OVO Arena Wembley), Charisse Beaumont (Black Lives In Music), Craig Stanley (Marshall Arts), Carol Scott (TAIT), and Collins.
After two hours of rapid presentations, attendees were treated to an evening of networking, complimentary drinks and bites.
Mark your calendars for Friday, 28 February 2025 for our 5th edition!
A big thank you to everyone who attended our concluding satellite event — but fear not, information about 2025’s flagship conference will be available soon.
Futures Forum is an ILMC initiative for emerging live music executives.
The event was jointly organised by Futures Forum and LIVE (Live music Industry Venues & Entertainment), with support from AEG Europe, The O2 and AXS.
