The UK music industry will benefit from a range of new powers and investment, with thousands of young people given opportunities to get involved in music, as the government unveils a new long-term plan to back the sector.
From artists and fans to venues, festivals, labels and music businesses, Turn It Up: Our Plan for Music will create the conditions for the sector, already worth at least £8 billion to the economy, to grow, innovate and succeed, News Cover reports, citing the UK government's official website.
The new strategy reaffirms the government’s commitment to ensure the UK is the best place in the world to create, experience and invest in music.
The government launched the plan today at the UK Music Summer Party, where the Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy addressed influential industry figures.
