My company is looking to put on a multigenre rave in Manchester, bringing together all aspects of music, dance and entertainment.

Oh My God! is an events promotions company that puts on club nights every month, usually consisting off Drum'n'Bass and Dubstep, although sometimes bringing together ophter aspects of music as well. We have a loyal following and have been quite successful in our aims. We are currently branching out into artist management with 36 acts currently confirmed to join our agency. We have managed to secure some of the biggest names in Drum'n'Bass and Dubstep as a result of our reputation.

One thing that is no longer available in the North of England is a multi genre rave, the likes of Heltr Skelter no longer exist and no one is pushing multigenre raves anymore. What we are aiming to do is put on a club night that brings together all aspects of electronic music including; Drum'n'Bass, Dubstep, Electro, Old Skool, Hardcore, Trance, Techno and more.

We have already secured Manchester University Academys support to put on the event as it will be a great event for the students and a great oppertuntiy for them to get involved using the societies. We plan to use as many societies as we can and allow the students to have an event that they feel they have helped to create.

As we have been in the business for a while we have all the contacts we need and are able to put on an event of this scale, however we do not have the funds to put it together. We are looking for £7,500 to enable us to advertise the event in relevent magazines and newspapers, print flyers and posters, pay to have the posters put up in city centres and to put on live entertainment in the outdoor area. We are looking to put on an outdoor circus, for which we have the contatcs however not the funds.

I have inclosed a video of one of our recent events to show what we have managed to achieve with no finacial backing, I hope this will help you to realsie what we could be capable of if we had the finances.
