Question to the Department for Digital, Culture, Media & Sport:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what discussions they have had with the commercial music industry about the challenges of procuring insurance for live music events.
This question was answered on 7th December 2020
We are aware of the concerns which have been raised about the potential challenges associated with securing insurance for live music events.
Officials have been working closely with the affected sectors to understand the challenges faced. This includes work to build an evidence base on whether there is a clear market failure that demonstrates insurance coverage is the only barrier to live music events taking place.
