PRS sues platform behind record-breaking Dua Lipa livestream for lack of licenses

In a lawsuit filed in December, PRS for Music alleges LIVENow concerts lacked the correct licensing, including the Dua Lipa “Studio 2054” online event, which took place in November 2020. The event sold 285,000 tickets and attracted 5 million viewers. Gavin Larkins, Director of Commercial Development, PRS for Music, said in a statement that, “no PRS member has been paid for the use of their songs in this event, or the other concerts held by LIVENow”.
