While some live events are taking place within COVID-19 restrictions, SaskMusic says highly-skilled workers and private venues are being hit hardest by the prolonged closure.

The $100-billion Canadian industry has been mostly at a standstill for more than six months, impacting thousands of workers and threatening the future of privately-owned venues.

As of Tuesday, the organization is forecasting a local economic loss of up to $6 million for technicians alone. Karen Gwillim was working for a Regina production company until the COVID-19 pandemic shutdown. She said summer would have been an extremely busy time, especially as a sound technician for live music events.

“There’s a lot of us who don’t really know what the future holds in terms of how long we can hold out and hope some element of work returns, and how many will have moved on to other things.”
