Live entertainment award

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The LEA-Live-Entertainment-Award is a German organizer award , which is presented by the LEA-Live-Entertainment-Award-Committee e. V. has been awarded annually since 2006. Since partnering with the Production Resource Group (PRG), the award has been called the PRG Live Entertainment Award ("PRG-LEA" for short).

In 2006 and 2007 the award ceremony took place in the Fliegende Bauten Hamburg , and from 2008 to 2010 in the Color Line Arena . Since 2011, the LEA award in the Frankfurt Festhalle has been the official kick-off event for the Frankfurt Music Fair and the parallel event technology fair Prolight + Sound .

The award

The main categories of the award ceremony include the LEA for the tour, festival, concert, club and en-suite tour or event of the year as well as a prize from the jury. In addition, LEA trophies have been and will be awarded for exemplary commitment in promoting young artists, for outstanding agency and management work as well as for an extraordinary music club or hall / arena and a life's work in live entertainment. In addition, awards can optionally be given on the basis of a practitioner or audience vote. Since 2009, the LEA Committee has been cooperating in awarding the Club Award with Initiative Musik gGmbH , which awards this prize to the winner with 20,000 euros and two nominees with 5,000 euros each.

Sponsorship and implementer

The award ceremony is carried out by the Live-Entertainment-Award-Committee e. V. Its statutory purpose of the association is to "promote the quality of German event management by awarding prizes to outstanding services and institutions in the German event industry as well as the artist agency and management sector." Members of the association are national tour and concert organizers, artist managers and agents .

The organization has been entrusting the implementation of the event to Live-Entertainment-Award-Veranstaltungs GmbH since 2008. In addition to the LEA e. V. the Federal Association of the Concert and Event Industry (BDKV eV). President of the LEA eV is Dieter Weidenfeld. The BDKV President Jens Michow is the managing director of LEA eV and LEA GmbH as well as the producer of the award ceremony . The award ceremony was directed by Werner Bohl from 2006 to 2015 and by Jens Bosch since 2016. The playbook is written by Andy Zahradnik .

The philosophy of the award

According to the decision of the members of the LEA e. V. of June 9, 2010:

  1. The LIVE ENTERTAINMENT AWARD 'LEA' is presented by the Live Entertainment Award Committee e. V. is held annually to honor outstanding achievements in the live entertainment sector in Germany and thus to present the 'makers' and managers behind the scenes to the public.
  2. All the nominees and, above all, the award winners are examples of many other outstanding achievements in the German live industry. The LEA does not want to claim exclusivity, but rather to set accents. In contrast to many other industry awards, an independent jury, consisting of experienced music journalists and experts in live entertainment, decides on the nominations and winners at the LEA.
  3. The LEA is not only intended to reward those who are already at the zenith of their careers, but also to motivate young event organizers, managers and agents and encourage them in their daily work. The LEA wants to depict the entire spectrum of the live scene and recognize successful, innovative and creative actors on many “playing fields”.
  4. As a jury award, the LEA is not based on the quantity of tickets sold for an event, but on the quality and the lively and extremely diverse entertainment offerings of the entire German live entertainment industry. In case of doubt, the principle of “class before checkout” applies. The economic success can, however, in addition to z. B. the criteria creativity and program choice and the overall view of the performance of the organizer can be a criterion for the evaluation of an event or tour.

The jury

A 24-person final jury appointed by the LEA Committee decides on the nominations and award winners. The committee, in which music journalists determined the votes until 2014, has since then consisted of 16 media representatives and eight industry practitioners (practitioner jury).
