Save Our Stages! Independent Live Music Venues Need Our Help!
John Dunlop
National Independent Venue Association (NIVA) has a mission to preserve and nurture the ecosystem of independent live music venues and promoters in the United States. These entertainment hubs are critical to their local economies and tax bases as employers, tourism destinations, and revenue generators for neighboring businesses such as restaurants, hotels, and retail. Independent venues exist in every state across the country; they were the first to be closed, they will be the last to open. The economic recovery process will extend past just reopening the front doors, requiring solutions unique to the industry.
