U.K. CELEBRATES THE ALBUM

7/23/18

The Brits have united to declare 10/13 the first ever National Album Day to celebrate the format and promote its relevance in the age of streaming. A week-long series of events and activity supported by BBC Music aims to be an annual fixture of the music industry calendar, much like Record Store Day.

Planned activity will include dedicated BBC Music programming and editorial support, retail events and personal appearances, Classic Album Sundays LP playbacks, artist interviews/fan Q&As, and online listening parties. A social media campaign (@AlbumDayUK and #NationalAlbumDay) will invite people to nominate and share the album that has most inspired them. At 3.33pm on 10/13, fans, stores, radio stations and public spaces will be invited to play their favourite album in full.
