Question
What action is the Minister taking to promote music venues across Wales ahead of the Easter holiday?
Answer
Answered by Deputy Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism
Creative Wales work with music venues across Wales throughout the year, supporting them through various means. In 2024 this has already included sponsoring a number of events including Independent Venue Week, Free For All Festival, Immersed and Beacons Summit all of which took place across several grassroots music venues. Capital funds of over £700,000 were awarded late in 2023, with those projects continuing to be completed.
