Close your eyes and transport yourself to a few months from now. Live music has finally resumed without restrictions, and you are in the middle of an excited crowd waiting for the artist to come on stage.

CANCELLED: due to the reinforcement of COVID-19 restrictions in Czechia and Europe, we have no other solution but to cancel the upcoming Liveurope Festival in Prague.

Liveurope is a one-of-a-kind initiative bringing together 21 iconic music venues with the objective of promoting new European talent. Thanks to the support of the EU, Liveurope has supported over 2700 concerts with up-and-coming European bands since its launch in 2014. 

As the year is coming to an end, it's becoming clearer that it will still take a while until the Liveurope venues can fully resume their missions as temples for European musical diversity and book as many new European acts as they did pre-covid.

The time we had been waiting for is here! Most Liveurope venues are hosting concerts with audiences once again and more and more artists are getting back on the road.

We have united with 6 live events and creators organisations to address an open letter to Commissioners Thierry Breton (Internal Market) and Mariya Gabriel (Culture) where we welcome the recently released

Together with over 70 International, European and national music organisations, we are addressing an open letter to decision-makers to call for better recognition of music in all policy areas.
