Live Nation Acquires Cuffe & Taylor

Live Nation has acquired Cuffe & Taylor, one of the UK’s fastest-growing independent promoters.
 
Founders Daniel Cuffe and Peter Taylor will continue to lead the company, which sold more than 500,000 tickets in 2016.

The joint directors said: “It’s very much business as usual at Cuffe & Taylor as we continue to grow and develop our core brands of Lytham Festival, Greenwich Music Time and Scarborough Open Air Theatre while also developing our touring operation, taking established artists into new and exciting regional venues.”

Upcoming tours include Cliff Richard, Remembering Fred, Shakin’ Stevens, Olly Murs, Bryan Adams, and The Beach Boys.

Live Nation president and CEO Michael Rapino said, “Through this deal with Cuffe & Taylor we are able to offer fans in the UK more choices than ever before.”
