AMG RETAINS BRIXTON LICENCE 
9/18/23

Academy Music Group has been permitted to retain its license of London’s Brixton Academy. It can reopen the venue after meeting a number of conditions.

The decision was made by the venue’s local authority, Lambeth Council, which outlined 77 “extensive and robust” conditions it must meet in order to promote public safety, according to a BBC report.

Conditions include stronger doors, more detailed risk assessments, and a new ticketing system, crown management system and security and management.

They are designed to avoid a repeat of the crowd crush at an Asake gig in December, which resulted in two deaths and the venue’s license being suspended. Last week, AMG's future running of the academy was hanging in the balance after the MET Police recommended a different operator take over during a two-day hearing.

The academy will reopen with a series of test events.
