RoadTrip is the first European block booking network, serving venues, artists and sustainable touring. An initiative by LIVEMX, co-funded by the European Union and organized by Forum For Folk Arts by Hangveto, RoadTrip sets out to build a network of 30 venues that are willing and able to organize greener and more efficient tours. Our interconnected network could cut costs and flights, streamline tours, benefit venues and artists directly.
