About the event:
Orchestra Tax Relief (OTR) is one of the Creative Industries Tax relief schemes. Until April 2023, instrumental groups will be able to claim back up to 50% of their annual production costs via this scheme. If your group is keen to find out more about this potential income boost, this event will cover everything you need to know.
So far, our member instrumental groups have saved over £300,000 to re-invest in future events and projects. Many more groups could be benefitting from this scheme. Making Music will work with you to submit the claim on your behalf by preparing your accounts and application and handling the submission process to HMRC and Companies House so that you can sit back and wait for the money to come to you.
You do not need to be an orchestra to make a claim, nor have paid tax or registered with HMRC before. All you need is to be putting on events where 12 or more instrumentalists are the focus, and you will be eligible for the scheme. It’s likely that your usual performances will already qualify for OTR, so it’s money for what you’re doing anyway!
This event is an opportunity to ask our team any questions you might have about the scheme or our service, and discover more about how your group can benefit from it.
There will be an opportunity to ask questions via the chat function during the event.
Who this event is for:
This event is aimed at anyone from an instrumental group of 12 or more people who is interested in finding out more about OTR.
