SAVE OUR SCENE was established during the pandemic to be a voice for independent small to medium sized music venues across Victoria. Collectively we represent some of the most iconic and long-standing music venues in the country. With the help of industry groups, musicians and fans, we raised the alarm, reminding politicians and governing bodies that live music matters. United, SOS drew attention to the lasting impact the loss of our live music venues would have on artist development, our global status as a live music city and who were are.

 

In November 2021, restrictions were eased, finally bringing live music venues into line with activities carrying similar risk such as dancing at weddings, attending large sporting events and festivals. We thank every person who used their voice to ensure that live music will remain a huge part of Victoria’s culture, character and identity for the future - SOS.
