Music and gymnastics
PRS for Music and British Gymnastics are working together to understand how gymnastics clubs use music and to improve awareness of PRS for Music licensing. We aim to provide a simple guide for clubs indicating when a Music Licence is required and what the level of charge will be.
While we work on this guide, PRS for Music have agreed to stop calling gymnastics clubs individually to sell licences.
Updates will be available on the PRS for Music website.
