As the live event industry remains largely dark, a grassroots group is organizing a special day to shed light on the talented professionals, destinations, venues and services across the country that are on stand by for a safe return. An hour after sundown **Tuesday, September 22**, **2020** the **Day of Visibility for the Canadian Live Events Industry **will see venues and businesses across the country lit in red.

**“We need to step out from the dark and highlight and celebrate the breadth of the industry,” says Morgan Myler, Live Event Community co-founder.**

The Live Event Community is reaching out to technicians, suppliers and venues across the country to raise the profile of an industry that has lost 80-95%, following in the footsteps of similar campaigns in both Germany (#nightoflight2020) and the UK (#LightItInRed).

The organization is urging the events community to work with local suppliers, colleagues and venues to create their own interpretation of the theme. The event's website will feature an **interactive map** to showcase the participating locations, and provide resources such as safety documents and a boilerplate permit request letter to be sent to local governments as needed. A robust social media campaign will also be in place, using the hashtags **#LightUpLive #EclaironsLesScenes**
