ABOUT AMIGAS
The AMIGAS Live collective was founded by Laura Davidson, a promoter and live-event booker with nearly 20 years experience working in the music industry. Based between London and Barcelona, it is our mission to create the next generation of festival headliners and reinvigorate the live industry.
AMIGAS is an inclusive, female-run business that aims to unite and collaborate with women from across the music and events industries. We strongly believe that sustainability, inclusivity and innovation should be considered in everything that we do.
As a new company, we want our business and service offering to evolve through the work that we do with our clients and the people we meet along the way. Our story is just beginning – If you have an idea or a project you want to discuss, no matter how big or small, we would love to hear from you.
