Key obstacles include visa rules, work permits, Schengen area limitations, customs procedures for transporting equipment, and higher touring costs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">The report also highlights the impact of the UK\u2019s loss of access to\u00a0<b>Creative Europe<\/b>. Between 2014 and 2020, the programme provided \u20ac111 million to UK organisations, supporting international cooperation, co-productions, research projects, professional fairs, and European networks. This example clearly shows that Creative Europe is not only a source of funding, but an essential infrastructure for cross-border cooperation, mobility, sectoral networking, and the long-term presence of artists and cultural organisations in the European cultural space.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p class=\"x_MsoNormal\">Source: MMC RTV Slovenija, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rtvslo.si\/kultura\/glasba\/kar-cetrtina-britanskih-glasbenikov-ne-nastopa-vec-v-drzavah-evropske-unije\/784588\"><i>Kar \u010detrtina\u00a0<span class=\"markreqwjvf8v\" data-markjs=\"true\" data-ogac=\"\" data-ogab=\"\" data-ogsc=\"\" data-ogsb=\"\">britanski<\/span>h glasbenikov ne nastopa ve\u010d v dr\u017eavah Evropske unije<\/i><\/a>, 7 June 2026.<\/p>\n<p><em>Cover photo: EPA<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new survey by European Movement UK points to a significant decline in performances by British musicians in EU countries after Brexit.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":26018,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[34,64],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-26019","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-international","category-mobility"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.8 -
