Venue Coalition

#ShowLaminateSaturday The newest member of our team Gab shared her first ever @sxsw badge! Gab was fortunate enough to be able to attend the conference and festival with her classmates when she attended Syracuse University!

#FlashbackFriday A killer performance by @alicecooper was brought to the @taxslayercenter on 3/13/18!

Back in 2014, Molly had a chance to help out with iHeartMedia and 102.7 KIIS FM's Jingle Ball at Staples Center. It was a great show and a fantastic experience with so many talented artists and stars that helped kick off the holiday season #ShowLaminateSaturday

Before joining our team, our Operations & Project Manager Nina Freed got her first taste of working with venues at the LA Greek Theatre. It was there she realized the only thing better than going to shows is working with the venues that host them #ShowLaminateSaturday

#ShowLaminateSaturday Booking Director Jordan Racine's laminate from the James Taylor USA tour in 2015. Being able to work a show at his favorite ball park, and the home of his favorite baseball team was an unforgettable experience!

Late this month the Department of Justice will hold hearings to discuss changes to current ASCAP/BMI rates. If possible, please follow the link below and send the requested email no later than end of day tomorrow (July 22). While we feel for the songwriters, we can’t afford to pay higher rates when we’re struggling to keep our venues afloat without events! http://blog.iavm.org/music-licensing-update/

Here’s our Senior Vice President Todd Hunt’s initial contribution to #ShowLaminateSaturday. Todd’s very first laminate from Mississippi State University dates back to 1988 when he had the appropriate big hair for the era! We’re not sure about that shirt though

#ShowbackThursday Cowboy boots to the sky! @ericchurchmusic performing his final show of the Holdin’ My Own Tour at the @bridgestonearenaofficial on May 27th, 2017

Our public venues are struggling. They have been shut down since early March and will be for the foreseeable future, yet haven’t qualified for any federal COVID-19 assistance and have zero financial support. Join us in calling on Congress to help public venues. Contact your Senators and Representatives to include them in the next COVID-19 assistance package. #SavePublicVenuesNow
