Musicians, DJs, roadies and other music industry workers are getting Covid grants of up to €12,500 each under a new Covid supports fund.

The arts sector has been devastated by the pandemic, with many in the culture and entertainment industry seeing their livelihoods wiped out for the past two years.

Minister Martin said: “I have engaged extensively with stakeholders to understand the challenges faced by them and put in place supports that work for the sector.“As part of the €50m in supports I have secured for the Live Entertainment sector for 2022, I have allocated €4m to MEBAS 2022.” The aim of this scheme is to make a contribution to the overheads of self-employed people and sole traders in the music industry who have been significantly negatively affected by COVID-19.
