City Hall has signed off on a £100,000 boost for the music industry in Belfast.
Elected representatives at Belfast City Council this month approved the allocation involving three branches of the industry in the city, with funds going towards investment in venues, a new digital music and marketing platform, and industry mentoring.
At the April meeting of the council’s City Growth and Regeneration Committee, £20,000 was approved for the Pipeline Investment Fund for music venues, £50,000 for the creation of a digital music support service and marketing channels, and £30,000 towards the development of the Music Industry Mentoring Programme for 2023/24.
