We are thrilled to announce AudioActive as our lead charity partner for The Great Escape 2025. Known for their dedication to “Making Music, Changing Lives,” AudioActive has been a beacon of support and development for young musicians since 1999.
Based in Brighton and now expanding throughout Sussex, AudioActive has continually fostered a vibrant music scene accessible to all. They provide invaluable resources, including safe spaces for artistic creation, well-being support, and professional career development in the music industry.
This partnership marks a celebration of shared values and histories, as many members from the AudioActive community, including notable artists like Arrdee (pictured at The Great Escape 2022), Frankie Stew, Harvey Gunn, and charity patron Rag’n’Bone Man, have graced The Great Escape’s stages over the years.
Together, The Great Escape and AudioActive are set to amplify the voices of emerging artists and bring transformative experiences to festival-goers and participants alike. As part of our collaboration, we are excited to offer festival attendees the opportunity to support this incredible cause directly. When purchasing tickets, you will have the option to add a voluntary donation to AudioActive, contributing to their ongoing efforts to make a difference in the lives of young musicians.
Stay tuned for more updates and get ready to join us in supporting and celebrating the next generation of music creators at The Great Escape 2025.
