Last week The Last Dinner Party stood on stage at London’s O2, and in front of a global audience said that they wouldn’t exist without the UK’s incredible independent venues.
Our music industry is big business. We welcome the biggest names in the world in some of the most famous venues in the world. Music tourism alone generates £2.8bn for London’s economy and a stunning 40 per cent rise in music tourists since 2022 means we now welcome almost seven million people a year.
