Stuart Galbraith calls for united industry approach to cost reduction

Access All Areas: Stuart Galbraith’s Kilimanjaro Live has had a remarkable summer, selling around 1.5 million tickets for huge outdoor live shows by acts including Ed Sheeran and Stereophonics, concert series including Kew The Music and Live At Chelsea, and its Scottish festival Belladrum Tartan Heart. However, Galbraith tells Access that the Deutsche Entertainment AG (DEAG)-owned promoter has not been immune from the challenging market conditions and that its considerable investment in infrastructure has paid dividends. He calls on all elements of the live events industry to work more collaboratively together with the aim of being more cost efficient and reducing its environmental impact.
