BikeFest 2023

In 2022, the BikeFest team cycled almost 400 km from Valencia to Barcelona to mark the conspicuous absence of ISE. The team will do it again in 2023 from January 27-29. Live the adventure and help your industry! 

With the attention of the general public, the initiative also wants to make visible other important areas that seriously affect our industry such as inclusivity, sustainability and diversity.

#GlobalActionDay and #LightItInRed

To highlight that the live events sector urgently needs the support of governments to survive the Covid-19 crisis, Global Action Day was celebrated on September 30, 2020. Around the world, thousands of places and workplaces were lit red along with unique projections, art installations and outreach to government officials and the media to raise awareness and drive change.

For its part, on March 17, the global action #LightItInRed - Stand as One was carried out, which illuminated numerous buildings in red around the world, showing in a creative, distinguished, elegant and impressive way that the entertainment industry and the events is on red alert and needs help from the Government.
