Live Events and Concerts

A concert is a contract with music inside it. Behind the performance there is an agreement between the promoter and the performer, a venue with its licences, rights to be cleared and, if the artist comes from abroad, permits that must be in place before the first ticket is sold.

What we do

  • We draft and negotiate performance, touring and artist representation agreements.
  • We review how responsibility is shared with the venue: capacity, safety, insurance and cancellation.
  • We prepare the residence and work permit and the visa for the foreign artist coming to perform in Spain, and for their crew.
  • We set out in writing the copyright and image rights: what may be recorded, broadcast and published afterwards.
  • We step in when the show falls through: cancellation, force majeure and ticket refunds.

What people usually bring us

  • A tour agreed by word of mouth, dates already announced and no contract.
  • An artist from outside the European Union who has to arrive with the right permits.
  • A cancellation, and an argument about who pays for what.
  • A recording of the concert that someone wants to publish and nobody knows whether they may.

In this area, the immigration side — the permits for the artist coming to perform — is what the firm handles daily; the contractual side is prepared with the same care. And the timescales for those permits are set by the authorities, not by us: which is why it is better to start there and not with the poster.
