GOOD NEWS! THE SHOW MUST GO ON! During lockdown, GOOD NEWS! THE SHOW MUST GO ON! During lockdown, we announced ‘A Christmas Wish’: a series of distanced Christmas shows! York getting thrust into Tier 2 did threaten this. Selling alcohol, whilst not our primary reason for getting into this business, is essential to the model of the live music industry, and quite simply the shows would not have been feasible without it. We’re therefore very happy that the Government has listened to the advice of the Music Venue Trust and created an exemption for the sale of alcohol at cultural events, which will enable us to continue! However, we want to send love and solidarity to the rest of York's hospitality industry who will likely be hit very hard by these rules at a time of year where they are normally reliant on decent trade. The rules are nonsensical and damaging against an already battered industry. We once again encourage the Government to work WITH hospitality, rather than against it. But in the meantime, for the sake of the bands, freelancers, and culture in york, we’re delighted to carry on with our Christmas shows. These shows will still follow our previous distancing guidelines. You can find these here: http://thecrescentyork.com/venue-info-socially-distanced-live-concerts/ and tickets for the concerts at https://thecrescentyork.seetickets.com/ Thanks for your ongoing support!

A CHRISTMAS WISH FROM THE CRESCENT: FOR GIGS TO RE A CHRISTMAS WISH FROM THE CRESCENT: FOR GIGS TO RETURN! We're delighted to announce a season of socially distanced shows here at The Crescent around the Christmas period. We were working hard to get this together for November, but our reopening plans were once again scuppered due to the second Lockdown. So we are praying for restrictions to lift once again so we can get back to putting on music... being able to put on gigs again would be nothing short of a Christmas Miracle! TICKETS WILL BE ON SALE FROM FRIDAY.... OBVIOUSLY CAPACITY WILL BE LIMITED! Head to www.thecrescentyork.com for further details and ticket links. These shows are planned according to Tier 2 regulations (seated shows, groups from same households). If the lockdown extends, or York ends up in Tier 3, we will revisit these plans. If you want more information about the practicalities of how this show will work with restrictions, head to our website here: http://thecrescentyork.com/venue-info-socially-distanced.../ Stay safe, and hopefully see you in December!

We’re delighted to announce that alongside some We’re delighted to announce that alongside some of York’s other venues and cultural organisations, we were successful in our application to the Cultural Recovery Fund! This money will enable us to reopen safely, and survive till next Spring. We’ve got some plans, but want to wait and see how the news develops tonight and over the next couple of weeks. As well as ACE and DCMS, we want to thank everyone who’s been supporting us, our incredible team and staff, as well as the musicians, engineers, and creatives who helped make our venue what it is. In particular, we want to thank the Music Venue Trust for helping campaign for this fund, and then going a step further to guide venues through the application process. This is the first time many of York’s grassroots venues have ever been successful in funding applications. We can’t emphasise enough how incredible they have been for venues up and down the country. The money announced over the next few days will not be enough to save the entire industry; just one small piece. Freelancers and musicians in particular face a massive threat. Many venues were ineligible, and some failed in their applications. We will continue to call for decent package that recognises that our industry is VIABLE. But tonight, we’ll be raising a glass and sleeping a bit easier. Thanks again Team Crescent x
Today is our 5th Birthday! We wanted to celebrat Today is our 5th Birthday! We wanted to celebrate with you. We wanted to throw the biggest party York has ever seen. We wanted to dance, sing and hug. But that's now illegal. We at least hoped that today we would have been able to announce successful Arts Council Funding that would enable us to open for another six months. But the results were delayed a week in order to avoid parliamentary scrutiny. It's crunch time for our industry. Today's birthday is bittersweet. But we are determined to keep our heads up and continue our mission of making The Crescent a world class venue for York. We will do everything we can to fight and survive the neglect our industry has been shown by this Government. We want to thank everyone who has supported us over the years and throughout this period: the audience, staff, bands, agents, Councillors, York's creative and cultural scene.... there are too many to mention. We would not have survived the last five years, let alone the last six months, without you. We will be back. x #SaveOurVenues #LetTheMusicPlay #WeMakeEvents
