The Minister for Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht, Sport and Media, Catherine Martin, announces a new tender for Online and Live Audience Music Performance and Related Services worth €1.5 million over 3 years.
During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and 2021, the department funded a number of music initiatives comprising both online and live audience based performances, subject to safety regulations and advice at the time, which included the Ireland Performs series, the Courage series, the Ireland in Music series, and the Hot Press Young and Emerging Artists Series.
Following on from this, the Minister today launched a tender to provide a series of interlinked musician performances, with both online and live audience based events (subject to COVID-19 restrictions) to broadcast free-of charge across a wide variety of media and social media, celebrating modern Irish popular music, music of Irish origin, and music with strong heritage links to Irish culture.
The contract will initially be awarded for a 3-year period at a maximum available funding of €500,000 per annum. 70-80% of this funding will be provided to artists and creative workers.
