AEG Live to programme ULU venue
By CMU Editorial | Published on Friday 28 January 2011
Elsewhere in London venue news, and more from the world of AEG Live. The company has just announced it will take over the running of the 800-capacity venue at the heart of the University Of London Union’s central London building.
Jan Chadwick, formerly General Manager of the Hammersmith Apollo and most recently at AEG’s Indigo2 venue, will take over bookings at the students’ union space. Jan told CMU: “I am extremely excited to be booking the next wave of up and coming artists, the venue has such a enormous history where all bands want to play on their way up before taking the next step on their journey to huge success”.
It’s increasingly common for the larger students’ unions to hire the services of established venue owners and promoters to manage and/or book their gig spaces. As previously reported, the Academy Music Group are most active in this space, though MAMA Group’s Barfly did formerly programme gigs at ULU.
