News summary

The U.K. music industry experienced a significant revival in 2023, generating approximately £8 billion ($10.3 billion) for the economy, with 19.2 million people attending concerts and festivals, a 33% increase from 2022. Major acts like Beyoncé, Harry Styles, and Blur played pivotal roles in this resurgence, with Taylor Swift's upcoming 'Eras Tour' anticipated to contribute an additional £1 billion. Music tourism has sustained around 62,000 jobs, reflecting a growth of over 17% from the previous year. The economic impact was not only felt in major cities like London but also across local businesses benefiting from the influx of music fans. However, UK Music's chief executive Tom Kiehl warned that grassroots venues need more support to ensure sustainability in the industry despite these positive trends. The recovery marks a stark contrast to the pandemic's impact, where one in three in the music sector lost their jobs during lockdown.
