The Blastbeat programme is a structured, award-winning educational initiative that brings together
groups of young people under professional guidance.
Participants engage in a comprehensive three to four-month programme where they establish and manage their own Event Social Enterprise (ESE) to create and promote various events, including music and dance performances or sports competitions.
Thus giving young people the tools and support to plan, market, and manage their own music events.
