AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Eurovision Aftershock: Bulgaria’s Dara won the 70th Eurovision in Vienna with “Bangaranga,” cruising to a record 173-point margin over Israel’s Noam Bettan, as the final stayed wrapped in protests and boycotts tied to Gaza. Gaza/UN Pressure: The UN rights chief urged Israel to prevent “acts of genocide,” warning of “ethnic cleansing” across Gaza and the occupied West Bank, after a report flagged serious violations that may amount to war crimes. Touring Costs Bite Back: Post-COVID touring budgets are getting hit again as fuel prices surge—transport surcharges are back, squeezing artists already dealing with higher costs. Palestinian Solidarity Abroad: Australia faces growing repression tied to Palestinian solidarity efforts, while artists and fans keep using major stages to signal support. Music Biz Tech: Roblox named its first chief growth officer, with Middle East/North Africa and Turkey in the expansion plan, while Spotify’s recent outage was blamed on a pro-Iran DDoS claim. Live Music Ticketing: Omar Khairat is set for a major Abu Dhabi return at Etihad Arena—fans are being directed to official sellers like Platinumlist.
