Membership to Audiences Yorkshire has become an absolutely vital part of our overall marketing strategy. The practical advantages such as accessing distribution channels, being featured on digyorkshire.com and reaching out to audiences within our catchment area are extremely important to us. At the same time we have the support needed to think creatively as an organisation and this is encouraged within industry briefings, CEO conferences and AY research such as the Theatre Benchmarking Report. As well as all of this, the networking opportunities that are available with similar venues is a real advantage and the AY team are incredibly knowledgeable about the arts environment, working closely with us to ensure we are moving forward at our pace.
