Organizing an event music in Melbourne requires complex time management and organization. Managing team preparation will help you become more efficient. Do not plan to organize this at the last minute. Plan your project over several months if necessary so as not to miss details that could compromise the event.
It is important to describe in detail your project (the organization, the setting and the groups or artists to perform at the concert). You should also consider specific needs in terms of sound and light equipment, security, the programming and other activities.
Once your entire project is complete, the administrative procedures for the locations and staff to be hired must be settled. It is possible to ask the concerned town hall to obtain a free communal hall, but you will have to present your project properly. It is important to take out insurance for staff, music groups and equipment because in the event of an incident or damage, you will be responsible for it.
Be careful, if you have submitted grant applications, they usually arrive after the concert. It is also possible to have your concert sponsored, but choose the company carefully. It is possible that it may cause you bad publicity. You can even appeal to businesses or residents who may be able to give you donations.
Organize a concert
During the preparation phase of the festival, it is important to establish your budget. Do not assume that you will completely fill the venue, rather consider that it will be half full. Also, note that you must pay a license to serve non-distilled fermented drinks (wine, beer and ciders).
Depending on the importance of your musical event, you can organize the ticketing in two parts: the presale, where the spectators can buy cheaper tickets in advance. If you pay the artists you bring, it is imperative to contact relevant bodies so that your event is organized in compliance with copyright laws.
Who will be the headline act? A headliner is important to bring the audience and it is a way to promote the event. This artist will influence the mood of the concert and therefore its success.
From the beginning of the organization of the festival to D-day, you must have an idea in mind and ask the right questions. Avoid scheduling your event at the same time as another large event.
You will have to surround yourself with the right people and delegate tasks. Management is the keyword and you must have an experienced team. In short, you will have to learn the basics of management and retroplanning, which refers to reverse scheduling. Retroplanning begins the day of the event and back in time until the decision to organize the concert.
