AEG'S NOBLE IDEA

AEG Presents has appointed its first-ever artistic director, Lucy Noble, who's been in the same position at London’s Royal Albert Hall for 20 years.

In her new role, which she’ll assume in the coming months, she'll be responsible for setting the artistic direction of the company’s touring and events business, driving expansion into new areas. She will also oversee content creation and the production of new events as a member of AEG Presents' European senior leadership team.

Noble will report to AEG Presents U.K. CEO Steve Homer, who said, “This is a huge win for AEG and only strengthens our world-class reputation. I can’t wait to see the creativity and direction Lucy will bring to our AEG Presents business as we move forward on this exciting next phase in our journey.”
