On Saturday, 6 November 2021, UMA Entertainment presents a COP26 Special Event exploring the role that music and entertainment plays in the fight against climate change, in partnership with Future For Humanity, Ivy Farm, Stabal, PPL and PRS for Music.
The format follows a lineup of panels and presentations from expert speakers across the climate, music and entertainment industries discussing: climate action and youth leadership, culture and climate, music industry partnerships and climate action, artists and climate action. The full schedule can be seen below.
The daytime conference is followed by an evening of live music (aged 14+) and an After Show from 11pm – 2am (aged 18+), both ticketed separately. Tickets to the live music and After Show are available via the venue’s ticketing platform. This listing is for the daytime conference.
80% of profits from this event will be donated to Brian Eno’s charity EarthPercent, making grants to the most effective organisations working on the climate crisis. The remaining 20% will be donated to social impact charities in Glasgow, helping to support the local community.
