LOUD WOMEN DIY Guide #13: How to put on a LOUD WOMEN event Since LOUD WOMEN began in London in 2015, we've put on festivals, gigs and showcase events across the UK, Ireland, Germany, the USA, Canada, Japan and Australia. Along the way we've also collaborated with brilliant grassroots venues, independent promoters and festivals on one-off gigs, showcase stages and co-promoted events. Every city is different, every venue is different and every music scene is different, so there isn't a single formula for making it work. What there is, though, is a way of working that we've developed over more than a decade of putting on DIY music events. This guide explains how we usually approach planning a LOUD WOMEN event. If you're interested in collaborating with us, it'll answer a lot of the questions we get asked before we've even had our first chat. If you're not working with LOUD WOMEN, hopefully it'll still give you some useful ideas for putting on your own grassroots event. https://loudwomen.org/2026/07/02/loud-women-diy-guide-13-how-to-put-on-a-loud-women-event/?utm_source=bluesky&utm_medium=jetpack_social
