Why many events that were hailed for their creativity are unable to deliver on virtual?
Were they really creative to begin with?
Were they just pulling stunts?
Or are virtual events creativity-unfriendly?
Wow, four questions in a tweet.

Dear @RishiSunak this is utterly utterly offensive - how dare you not protect the arts - how dare this be seen by artists up and down the country - how dare you make this a new rhetoric of our government - the arts are not flippant they are a lifeline #SaveTheArtsUK

"You don't see us. You're not meant to - but we are always there. We have families, rent, mortgages, loans. We budget on the work we have coming in...but there is none."
The events industry needs support now more than ever.

87% musicians will be facing financial hardship as a result of the Government’s income support schemes ending in October. Government must act. Write to your MP now > themu.org/take-action-pandem… #BehindEveryMusician

Furloughing has been a lifeline to creative industries like music during the pandemic.
With so many people still unable to work we need support measures to continue.

CONFIRMED: The @DCMS has confirmed #BusinessEvents can continue so long as they follow Covid-secure guidance, as issued by @MIAuk conference-news.co.uk/corona… #GetBritainMeeting #eventprofs

Rare for me to comment on countries that are not my own but what the UK government is doing with the event industry is appalling.
The uncertainty that it is giving to the industry is too much.

Have now produced a 30 person wedding. It’s not commercially viable for most. Then yet another already supported sector gets yet another feature on @BBCNews when weddings alone is worth 3 x more than live arts. So tired of justifying worth of me and my business #WhatAboutWeddings

We all miss live events. People who make shows happen have been unemployed since March. They need our help.
Please check out WeMakeEvents.org to urge congress to pass the Restart Act & extend PUA.

This is the heartbreaking number of couples who have had to postpone their wedding days since March. Today, we send all our love to each and every one. #whataboutweddings

This is excellent news. Grassroots music venues are the engine room of the music industry. They are under unprecedented threat & @DCMS are to be congratulated for acting decisively @OliverDowden @cj_dinenage @ace_national #HereForCulture gov.uk/government/news/cultu…

Bars = Yes Drinks reception =No
Meal out = yes wedding breakfast =No
Air travel = Yes gathering of 30 = No
Public transport =yes gathering of 30 = No
Sit amongst 100 strangers in restaurant =yes. Sit amongst 30 family members = No
#whataboutweddings where is the logic in this

Nearly 90% of planners reported having lost income because of the pandemic, and nearly 30% have been put out of work entirely due to furloughs, layoffs, and loss of business.
