Data has revealed many more are closing than opening, and those that are still open, are struggling to stay afloat. In a report released by the Music Venue Trust (MVT), it was revealed that last year alone, 16% of all music venues shut their doors and left the scene. Additionally, figures show that between 2008 and 2015 over 35% of all UK music venues went out of business due to unsustainable finances, disputes with landlords and many other reasons. This has to stop.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are some more stats from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.musicvenuetrust.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/MVT_2023-Annual-Report_Digital.pdf\">Music Venue Trust 2023 report<\/a>:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">125 grassroots music venues (GMV) were no longer registered to the trust<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Of these 76 had closed, 72 weren\u2019t hitting GMV criteria\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Only 34 new GMV had opened<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rent to keep venues open has increased 37.5%\u00a0 to now almost \u00a35000 per calendar month<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">45% of venues closing were due to financial issues<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Feedback pledges to support the Music Venues Trust\u2019s groundbreaking <strong>#ownourvenues<\/strong> scheme alongside Music Venue Properties, and their <strong>&#8216;The Artist Pledge&#8217;<\/strong> but to also add our own twist to it.
