MEMBERSHIP
WE FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHTS
As a collective, we are stronger together. Our membership includes giants of modern music as well as new talent. We are passionate about our members rights. We fight to ensure these rights are protected and they are treated fairly.
OUR CURRENT CAMPAIGNS
WE CELEBRATE YOUR TALENT
Our two flagship awards, The Ivors and The Ivors Composer Awards are the most important awards in the industry because they are judged and awarded by respected songwriters and composers. Winning an Ivor is the highest accolade in music for creators.
OUR AWARDS
WE CREATE INSPIRATIONAL MOMENTS
From sell-out creator conferences to our Gold Badge celebratory lunch, intimate audiences with music creators to craft-focused masterclasses and technology seminars, our calendar of member-only events is designed to inspire and engage.
