People are probably tired of hearing “Support Your Live Music Venue”, but it could never be more true. 👇🏻

Yep. It’s crunch time.
Awards up by 4.75% as of July.

So it’s more critical than ever that music-loving patrons support live music venues.

Whether that’s attending ticketed events, buying a Parma, a Coffee, Cake or soft drink - to help counter the ever-reducing bar sales.

Sadly, there is no doubt that Right Now more and more venues will be questioning the business realities of whether they can afford to present live music.

People need to choose between sitting at home watching Netflix and listening to Spotify for the rest of their lives, versus going out once a week/fortnight/month (depending on their budget) to enjoy a real social and musical experience and support the venues that make the effort, and take the chances in presenting it.

There is real hope for venues that adapt and broaden their offerings (we are doing our bit), but bums on seats is the only way to make sure both live music, and their venues survive.

(and there is no point complaining about it later - once they close, it’s too late)

With punters drinking less, running costs rising and one-third of the sector wiped out by Covid, venues and promoters are turning the business model on its head

🎶 Thank You from the Upwey Belgrave RSL 🎶

A huge thank you to all of our wonderful members and the local community who joined us on Saturday to support the talented musicians and the Upwey Belgrave RSL during the Upwey Sounds Festival.

It was an incredibly busy day, and we’re so proud of what our amazing staff and dedicated volunteers achieved to welcome and cater for such a fantastic crowd.

We are truly grateful for the many kind words, encouragement, and understanding shown throughout the day as we managed a much larger than normal number of patrons. Your patience and support made all the difference and are greatly appreciated.

Community events like these are only possible because of wonderful people such as the event organizers and those who continue to support our (your) RSL.

Thank you once again—we look forward to welcoming you back again soon!

❤️ From the President, Committee, Staff & Volunteers.
