TheMusicLicence Licensing Guide

If you use, play or perform music in your business or organisation, the chances are you need a music licence.

Under The Copyright, Designs & Patents Act 1988, permission is needed from the relevant copyright holders – those people who create music – in order to play or perform music in public.

TheMusicLicence gives you this permission, in relation to the vast majority of commercially available music. This ranges from grassroots and independent artists and composers through to the biggest names in the business.
