Are you interested in a career in the music industry? If so, the Royal Albert Hall’s Young Producers scheme may be for you.
We’re looking for a new group of passionate 18-25 year olds to take part in the 2019/2020 programme. Those successful will get the exclusive opportunity to organise and curate a series of events at the Hall, in some of our spaces beyond the main stage.
As a Young Producer, you’ll be given a budget, support and guidance to help bring your event ideas to life. Through a series of regular workshops with Hall staff and other professionals, you will gain invaluable experience in putting on events; from programming and marketing to event management and artist liaison.
You will mainly be programming events for the Hall’s Elgar Room, a world-class and incredibly flexible performance space. The Elgar Room has welcomed artists such as Ezra Collective, Lowkey, Kate Tempest, and Laura Mvula, hosting a wide range of events including film screenings, live music, children’s DJ dance parties and more.
This is the perfect opportunity to showcase your creativity and learn from experts in a world famous performance venue. What are you waiting for?
