Bandsintown and MIDiA are presenting a free webinar, **“Understanding The Future Of Live Music,”** this Wednesday, August 16th.

Earlier this month, top music and entertainment consultancy MIDiA released **[‘Return to live | Post-pandemic music fans,’](https://www.hypebot.com/midia-bandsintown-release-landmark-return-to-live-study/)** a study based on data from Bandsintown’s 80 million registered users. As the first major post-pandemic survey of live music fan attitudes and preferences, the study offers a unique glimpse of the future of live music and how artists and the music industry need to adapt.
