THE Culture Company originally estimated the Liverpool Sound concert would cost £1.78m, but it has increased to £1.94m.
The main changes are:
The cost of infrastructure, including stage, up from £470,000 to £700,000
Artist fees and expenses, now £340,000, an increase of £90,000
PA sound, lighting and set went up £50,000 to £400,000.
The council now hopes to get £158,000 in additional ticket income, bringing the total to £1.84m. Hospitality is also expected to generate £35,000, but was not originally not expected to make any money.
Expectations that merchandising and sale of programmes would generate £100,000, have been downgraded by £30,000.
