Music Venue Trust Annual Report

2024 remained a tough and challenging climate for Grassroots Music Venues (GMVs), with over 200 venues, 24.9% of the entire sector, needing to reach out to the charity for support to avoid permanent closure. Music Venue Trust (MVT) offered planning, licensing, noise, acoustics, and legal advice to GMVs across the UK, directly responding to a broad range of key issues facing venues and increased their support for the financial challenges that pose the most significant risk to the sustainability and resilience of the grassroots network.
