UK music tourism hits record £10 billion in 2024: study
'Charli XCX, Bruce Springsteen, Sam Fender and Dua Lipa helped lure a record 23.5 million music tourists to concerts and festivals,' UK Music added.
Both figures were up by around one quarter on 2023, while the vast majority of 'tourists' were fans travelling from other areas of the UK.
'Taylor Swift's Eras Tour helped drive the 2024 figures to a new high with legions of overseas tourists coming to the UK to see the stars and enjoy concerts and festivals including Glastonbury,' it added.
UK Music said this year's Oasis reunion tour, starting in Cardiff on Friday, 'will hopefully continue the success story'.
Looking at the total 2024 spending, £5.1 billion came from music tourists attending concerts and festivals in the UK, including the cost of tickets, travel and accommodation, the study showed.

'A further £4.9 billion was spent indirectly through the value chain, including costs such as fencing and security,' it said.
UK Music noted that 'local music ecosystems stimulate the economy by boosting footfall, powering the hospitality and retail sectors, and creating vibrant places that attract residents, visitors, and investment'.
Its chief executive Tom Kiehl warned however of 'a number of challenges' facing the sector, 'such as the rising cost of touring for artists and the threat of closure looming over venues, studios and other music spaces'. AFP

Will Great Disaster Strike Japan on July 15? Manga Artist Predicts Mega Earthquake
Japan is now a topic of discussion worldwide due to a grim prediction by manga artist Ryo Tatsuki. The Japanese graphic novel artist and psychic predicted a great disaster for the East Asian country on July 15. In her best-selling comic, The Future I Saw, she predicted that a mega earthquake would strike Japan in July. The complete version of her book Watashi ga Mita Mirai, Kanzenban (The Future That I Saw) contains her new prophecy about a major natural disaster. The cult work, published in 2021, mentioned a dream she had while travelling in India in July 2021. In her dream, the manga artist saw "a crack opening up under the seabed between Japan and the Philippines, sending ashore waves three times as tall as those from the Tōhoku earthquake". According to her, she saw the seas boil as if she were looking at the earth as if it were on Google Earth. She had the dream again at 4.18 am on July 5, 2021. "The disaster will occur in July 2025. If the day you have a dream is the day it becomes reality, then the next great disaster will be July 5, 2025," Tatsuki wrote. The Impact The grim prediction by Ryo Tatsuki led to a dramatic fall in the bookings to Japan this summer. The prophecy gained massive traction online, resulting in a 50 percent dip in bookings to the country. Flight reservations to this East Asian country from Thailand, China, Vietnam, and Hong Kong declined due to this prediction. "The earthquake prophecy has caused a big change to our customers' preferences," Frankie Chow, head of Hong Kong travel agency CLS Holiday, told AFP. Will Great Disaster Strike Japan on July 15? Here is the truth about the grim prediction by Ryo Tatsuki about a great disaster in Japan on July 15. The manga artist, 70, said in her new autobiography, The Testament of an Angel, that the prediction about a disaster next week would have been a misprint from the publisher's side. She stressed that July 15 was the day she had this dream in 2021. The editorial staff could have misinterpreted her words. "I was unhappy that it was published primarily based on the publisher's wishes. I vaguely remember mentioning it, but it appears to have been hurriedly written during a rush of work. The day I had the dream does not equal the day something happens," she told the Japanese newspaper The Sankei Shimbun. The Japanese graphic novel artist and psychic shared her happiness watching people show interest in The Future I Know. Over 1.06 million copies of the book have been sold, with a renewed interest in Hong Kong and other parts of Asia. "It is evidence of growing awareness of disaster prevention, and we view this as a positive thing. We would like to help in the event of a disaster, and hope that this interest will lead to safety measures and preparations. I have to be especially careful when I go out, and I also try to stock up on supplies in case of a disaster," she shared. Meanwhile, seismologists said that it is impossible to predict the exact date, time, and location of an earthquake. An earthquake can occur at any time. It is important to make preparations. "With current scientific knowledge, it is difficult to predict an earthquake by specifying its date, time, and location, so please be aware that earthquakes can occur at any time and make preparations on an ongoing basis," the Cabinet Office Disaster Prevention Division in Japan mentioned on X/Twitter. What is The Future I Saw? The cult work contains 15 dreams that the manga artist had in 1985. She wrote them in a notebook that her mother gifted her. The book gained traction after 13 of her dreams came true. Some of her dreams were about the deaths of Diana and Queen frontman Freddie Mercury, a pandemic in 2020 – the coronavirus, and the Tōhoku earthquake in March 2011.

Copenhagen's summer offer: Pick up rubbish, get free stuff
Sign up now: Get ST's newsletters delivered to your inbox The CopenPay initiative offers around 100 activities in exchange for free or reduced prices. COPENHAGEN - Mexican tourist Rocio Gomez spent an hour boating on Copenhagen's canals free of charge in exchange for picking up rubbish in the water, part of a city programme for rewarding eco-friendly tourists. During her tour on an electric motorboat, which normally costs around US$95 (S$121) an hour, Ms Rocio collected rubbish in the Copenhagen port. 'You're doing something helpful and you're also having a good time,' she told AFP. The 34-year-old who works in sustainable development said she planned to take advantage of other similar deals offered in Copenhagen during her visit. From mid-June until late August 2025, the CopenPay initiative offers around 100 activities in exchange for free or reduced prices on a selection of experiences. For example, participants can get a coffee, pastry or concert ticket in exchange for an hour of picking up trash; a rebate on a restaurant dinner if they do some gardening; or a free guided tour for those who stay in the city longer than three days. 'We saw that four out of five people actually want to do good, but only one does it. So we wanted to see how we could bridge that gap and inspire more people to do good,' said Ms Rikke Holm Petersen, head of communications at the Wonderful Copenhagen tourism board. The initiative was tested on a smaller scale in 2024, when 75,000 people took part. In 2025, Wonderful Copenhagen expects at least twice as many. The number of companies and institutions taking part, and getting no financial gain in return, has increased four-fold. The campaign targets tourists, but it applies to anyone who wants to participate. At the motorboat rental company GoBoat, as at many other places, the offer is limited. 'Around 60 people can come every Tuesday and Thursday morning' after signing up on a CopenPay website, said GoBoat's Ms Isabel Smith. Ms Smith, a marine biologist, is in charge of analysing the trash hauled by CopenPay users, averaging 2kg per boat, most of which is plastic. 'I measure the plastic by width and length, then identify the type of plastic,' she said. 'This will contribute to our current understanding of the role of the harbour and plastic pollution.' Spread abroad? The programme has proven popular with tourists. 'When you are travelling to different places, you want to experience different things. And I found that this is pretty amazing,' Ms Gomez said. 'At the beginning, it was pretty clean — extremely clean — but then we found certain corners that were pretty dirty.' 'And then we started to pick up all the trash from the corners with bamboo nets.' Also in her boat was Ms Marta Reschiglian, an Italian student visiting Copenhagen with a group of friends on an Erasmus University exchange programme. 'Since we are students and we are sometimes on a really tight budget, it's so nice to be able to do these things, to combine a bit of a sustainable, friendly behaviour and also a way to get things for free,' Ms Reschiglian said. 'Lots of cities should start to adopt these kinds of initiatives,' she added. 'We are seeing all over the world that there are so many problems with mass tourism.' The project could spread to other cities outside Denmark. 'We've been sharing insights with 100 destinations all over the world,' said Ms Petersen at Wonderful Copenhagen. In the Danish capital, the initiative could become permanent in the future, with a winter programme as well. Around four million tourists visit Copenhagen each year, the majority in summer. AFP
