We are delighted to announce that RockBox is once again working with Academy Music Group’s extensive estate of music venues across the UK.
Sorry for all the secrecy, but we are already up and running with campaigns and wanted to wait until we could show you the goods:

This partnership significantly expands the RockBox music venue network, adding an impressive 120 large digital screens in iconic venues nationwide, including:
● O2 Academy Birmingham
● O2 Academy Bournemouth
● O2 Academy Bristol
● O2 Academy Brixton
● O2 Academy Edinburgh
● O2 Academy Glasgow
● O2 Academy Islington
● O2 Academy Leeds
● O2 Academy Liverpool
● O2 Academy Oxford
● O2 Apollo Manchester
● O2 City Hall Newcastle
● O2 Forum Kentish Town
● O2 Guildhall Southampton
● O2 Institute Birmingham
● O2 Ritz Manchester
● O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire
● O2 Victoria Warehouse Manchester
● Utilita Arena Cardiff

With this expansion, RockBox now offers a total of 220 screens across 80 of the UK’s most influential music venues. This provides brands with an unparalleled opportunity to connect with music fans at every stage—from grassroots venues to legendary locations such as O2 Academy Brixton and O2 Apollo Manchester.

This is also fantastic news for our existing grassroots partners who receive a revenue share from advertising. The increased scale of our network is set to attract even greater interest from brands, further strengthening the connection between advertisers and the UK’s thriving live music scene.

For brands looking to make an impact where music matters most, RockBox’s expanded network offers an unmissable opportunity.
MD of RockBox, Bradley Carr, commented:
"We are thrilled to 'get the band back together' and be working with AMG again. The scale of this network presents an incredible and unique opportunity to reach music audiences. Music is at the heart of what we do and we started out over 30 years ago postering these very venues”.

Head of Partnerships at AMG, Katie Mack, commented:
“Our history with RockBox goes back many years and we’re delighted to welcome them back to our venues. With their roots in music they’re the perfect companion for connecting with the thousands of fans who walk through our doors each week, and we’re excited to work together again.”
The network is already taking bookings, and with a packed summer of shows coming up, we can’t wait to reveal what’s been running.
