Live Nation, AEG Join IMP In Suspending Concerts Until April as Coronavirus Spreads

Yesterday - local concert promoter IMP announced the postponement of all concerts until April 1.  Today - North America's largest concert promoters - Live Nation and AEG have halted all large scale tours in the US and abroad until April amid COVID-19 fears.  

 

In a joint statement obtained by Rolling Stone, executives from Live Nation, AEG, Creative Artists Agency (CAA), William Morris Endeavor (WME), Paradigm, and United Talent Agency (UTA) said:

 

“The world’s leading forces in live entertainment have come together to form a global task force to drive strategic support and unified direction ensuring precautionary efforts and ongoing protocol are in the best interest of artists, fans, staff, and the global community.   At this time, we collectively recommend large scale events through the end of March be postponed. “We continue to support that small-scale events follow guidance set by their local government officials. We feel fortunate to have the flexibility to reschedule concerts, festivals, and live events as needed, and look forward to connecting fans with all their favorite artists and live entertainment soon.”
