Friday Figures - 29 Sep

IQ Magazine teamed up with ROSTR for a breakdown of Europe’s top music festivals of 2023. Gender, age, genre, booking agencies and more, this is a crucial analysis giving another sobering look at the disparity that persists throughout the music industry process to get to the festival point.

What is perhaps unsurprising yet shocking is the perception gap persists. If you’ve been following our Friday Figures on a weekly basis for the past few years (years!), you know that we can pluck out consistent figures from many angles, sub sectors and intersections looking at the blatant disparity in the music industry ecosystem. There is no sinister agenda at play when these figures are presented. Having an equitable present and future is a basic human right. Let’s really hone in on where the issues lie, we have talked about this enough. Get in touch with us. Sign the Keychange pledge. Get engaged with others already doing the work. Let’s DO.

And we can’t say it loud enough. #TargetedActionWorks
