Merchandise 

Amazon Music has revealed a new merchandise integration with concert discovery platform, Bandsintown. Fans will be able to shop merch items from their favourite artists while browsing the artist profile pages on the Bandsintown website and app. The integration also means that the 590,000 registered artists will be able to utilise Bandsintown for artists to leverage its suite of free marketing tools to promote their merch and music. 

Planning ahead

Crypto.com Arena has appointed UK-based event and venue planning software company, OnePlan, to help host over 230 events annually. The Los Angeles Arena is home to the Los Angeles Lakers, Los Angeles Clippers, LA Kings, Los Angeles Sparks, the GRAMMY Awards, concerts and more. OnePlan’s Venue Twin technology has helped to produce a 3D digital twin of the arena, meaning the production team can customise the arena for every event and produce comprehensive event plans.
