We need your support to realise live music shows.

Hi,

It’s good to be back on board with live music after months of silence! Although things are slowly starting to roll again, unfortunately, the music scene has been hit hard by Corona and is suffering the consequences. For that reason we’re launching a Crowdfunding campaign and asking you, sweet people, to help fund the live music events.

All the money that goes into each show is divided between:
- paying the artist
- the production staff
- promotion
- equipment

We have all the tools but as it is right now, we can only afford to put on a few shows. Without help, we’ll be forced to stop arranging more. We need your support to realise live music shows. With your help, we can keep the independent music scene going through these tough times!

Who are we?

We are a small and highly motivated group who feel passionate about music. For years, we have been actively supporting independent music by putting on shows at Vessel 11. Lightvessel 11 is the original name of this 1951 British Lightship, that is now docked in the heart of Rotterdam.

Our plan is this:

We have bands and DJ’s confirmed throughout the months of July, August & September. Due to the Corona crisis, we’re changing the setup. We’re moving the stage up to the top deck of the boat. The audience will be seated on the land – 84 seats in total – in compliance with the 1.5 meter distance, and all with a perfect view of the stage. Because of noise restrictions, all shows will require headsets for the time being. This goes for bands as well as DJs !

Please join us!

Please join our crowdfunding campaign as a doner, an ambassador, a fan of music! Small and large donations are welcome, and we would very much appreciate you sharing this call.

Whatever funding we raise we’ll use to book more artists and line up shows throughout the summer. With every €1k we raise we can book another band. If we can book one extra show, wonderful. If we can book three, amazing!

Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Much love,

The V11 crew
