Once you have participated in one of our auditions and obtained a positive outcome, you’ll need to submit the following documentation:
- Detailed risk assessment
- Public liability insurance of at least £5 million
- Copy of identification
- Portrait ID photo
- Signed Code of Practice
After submitting all documentation required, we’ll schedule a soundcheck with you in one of the allocated pitches. This ensures that the act can be performed within the approved decibel limits.
When all of the above is complete, you’ll receive your lanyard with its licence ID, and you can start performing!
