10 August 2011The Victorian Government is interested in generating new and improved forms of evidence in relation to the significance of the contribution of the Victorian venue-based live music sector. In addition to this, there is a strategic need for the live music sector to consider its current position and identify opportunities for, and potential limits to, future growth and viability.

This report provides a quantified estimate of the economic contribution of live music in Victorian venues as well as a qualitative discussion of the social and cultural values that are accruing. In addition, the report outlines possible challenges and opportunities for the Victorian live music sector in its immediate future, and the implications for policy makers and the industry alike.
