The Showcase with Alive Network
Take the legwork out of your event planning with our short vlogs, showcasing five of the UK’s hottest acts,
every fortnight..
Ep 1 - The Music Edit.
Welcome to The Showcase! For the first in our 2-minute vlog series,
we've shortlisted five incredible artists offering your favourite entertainment: live music.
Live music acts are your #1, and it’s not hard to see why. They make the biggest impact with your guests, and offer the most flexibility. Brilliant as a headliner, but even better value as a package, many offer acoustic sets, DJ services or flexible lineups, to take you from guests’ arrival to after party.
With this in mind, we’ve curated five of the very best for you, that promise an unforgettable event, more bang for your buck – and all-round fuss free planning.
