The annual Music Victoria Membership Drive is set to kick off next week, when you can sign up or renew a membership. You’ll also qualify for a range of discounts and go into the running for some sweet prizes, including a signed acoustic guitar, a Virgin Australia Lounge pass, two tickets to a gig of your choice at the Corner and a Sailor Jerry prize pack.
Over the last 12 months, Music Victoria membership fees have helped fund the organisation to achieve protection and opportunities for the music industry. Music Victoria led negotiations for the world-first implementation of the Agent of Change Principle, which protects existing venues from enroaching development and achieved red tape cuts for all-age gigs and building code complicance. The organisation also played a hand in the development of the new State Government’s $22 million Music Works package.
Music Victoria now hopes to turn its attention to musicians and fans, with some big announcements to come during the drive.
