PUBLIC CONCERTS
World Concert Day was originally a day when public concerts and events donate part of ticket sales to charity. The Global Pandemic changed this, and last year in 2020 it was a live streaming lockdown event. It is possible that public concerts already planned for 26 April - BTS, Harry Styles, Celine Dion, Jeff Beck, Nick Mason, Bryan Adams, The Liverpool Philharmonic and many others - will be cancelled because of the Pandemic and the event may be online only again in 2021. If that is the case, we invite ALL artists, producers and promoters reading this to join in and stream online on 26 April. Contact us for details on social media.
