Live music is the heartbeat of our cities and towns. Your Choice is a music industry supported initiative, created to address the growing cultural issues and harmful behaviour within our landscape, affecting the rhythm.
We’re starting a conversation around personal and collective responsibilities, addressing actions that impact the overall experience of patrons.
It’s time for change, it’s time to engage. You have a role as do we; your choice becomes our story.
We all have the right to a good time, but not at the expense of others. Music should be a safe space. Physical and verbal assaults (ranging in severity) are all too common, impacting the individual and collective audience experience. We’re asking everyone to think about their behaviour at live gatherings and the lasting concequences it has on the people around them. Engage in the conversation, call out bad behaviour, report what you see and join us in demanding change.
Your Choice is about being culturally proactive, we don’t want to stick our heads in the sand around any of these issues and pretend they are not happening. As industry representatives, we will continue to work with the public, emergency services, community groups and government agencies to develop informed and preventative strategies rather than legislative, restrictive solutions.
It’s getting haute in here! The Falls Festival is partnering with Your Choice and giving you the opportunity to expand your wardrobe with a limited edition set of T Shirts….while helping out some great causes at the same time!
Our mates from Dune Rats, Flume, The Smith Street Band and Ecca Vandal and Falls Festival itself will have a unique piece that has been specially designed, on offer at all Falls events. Angus and Julia Stone will have a run of Your Choice labeled tour merch for their charity.
There are very limited quantities, so you need to get in quick to take home a special memento from the show which will make you look great on the outside and feel great the inside, as all of the profits will be donated to the artists charity of choice!
