Merchandise
Permission to sell merchandise must be sought in advance of the performance. Blackheath Halls retains commission from merchandise sales of 30% + VAT of the gross takings if we sell merchandise on behalf of the incoming promoter and provide the float. If you, as the incoming promoter, sell merchandise at the venue and provide your own float and staff, we retain 15% + VAT of gross takings.
We can arrange for programme sellers subject to commission being charged on all sales.
Performing Rights Society (PRS)
Concert promoters are required to supply PRS information at the end of the performance so that a venue PRS return can be submitted (if required). PRS charges will be deducted from the box office reconciliation (3%).
Marketing
We can provide limited marketing support for Public Performances. Please contact our marketing managers Janine Howlett and Nicola Metselaar for further information.
Recording and Filming
