Amidst the chaos and uncertainty surrounding Brexit, it is more important than ever to ensure that musicians’ voices are heard and that touring rights are defended.

The ‘Put It to The People March’ will assemble from 12:00 pm in Park Lane, and will march to Parliament Square. Further details can be found on the People’s Vote website.

If you are attending the march and would like an MU ‘Let touring musicians travel’ t-shirt or mini placard, please email press@theMU.org by Wednesday 20 March.
