During the UK's coronavirus response, the music industry has shrunk resulting in thousands without work. The government has been the focus of criticism for failing to offer enough support to the live music industry.

It is estimated that 191,000 jobs were associated to the late night venue trade in 2018. Doubts of support for the industry were further enhanced when chancellor Rishi Sunak offered a solution for individuals who found themselves out of work to retrain and find different jobs.
