What about ticketed events?
The U.S. performance rights organizations (ASCAP, BMI, and SESAC) offer additional coverage for ticketed events to current PERFORMmusic licensees. These additional fees are calculated based on various factors, including the type of event, venue location, and seating capacity, number of tickets distributed, and gross ticket sales. Even free ticketed events require reporting, with fees based on your facility's seating capacity and entertainment expenses.
We strive to simplify your reporting process and eliminate the need to obtain licenses directly from ASCAP, BMI, and SESAC individually. It's essential to report your event as soon as it concludes. You can download the ticketed event submission form by clicking here. Once completed, please email it to support@copyrightsolutions.com. You will then receive a PERFORMmusic Event invoice within 5 days, which is payable upon receipt.
For budgeting purposes, we typically suggest a per-event fee budget of $91.00 or 10% of the gross ticket revenue, whichever is greater.
