Sponsorship for artists

[Wild_Child]

I am the owner of an events company in London. I do not have a sponsorship license at the moment and I am seeking sponsorship for non-UK artists to do performances in the UK.

Is there a list of companies with such a license that would perhaps be able to help me? Who can I contact about this?

This is my area of expertise. You cannot pay another company to act as sponsor for your non-EU acts. The sponsor must be involved in the tour.

You need to either get a licence or not deal with non-EU acts, or only book non-EU acts who have a licensed UK booking agent (the booking agent can act as the sponsor for a whole tour).

Ok I see...
Thanx for the help anyway!

Please reply as soon as possible as time is running out, the slots are already being filled, and some sponsors have already submitted their checks. In other words, we will have to go to radio with the ads soon because sponsors need their advertising handled.

Arlie Jacobs - what ARE you on about? Your reply makes no sense. If you are trying to sell some kind of service on here then I suggest the Moderators ban you.
