🎶 Notes From Belfast 🎶

We’re thrilled to announce a new music project that celebrates Belfast’s rich creativity through the universal language of music! 🌟 Shaped by the people of Belfast and performed in the city’s unique places, this ambitious initiative will commission several 3-5 minute pieces from artists connected to our vibrant city.

Whether your sound is classical, folk, jazz, or contemporary pop, this is your chance to create something truly special. Selected musicians will collaborate with local communities, gathering personal stories that will inspire their compositions.

Artists will receive a commissioning fee in line with Musicians’ Union rates, with the works premiering at iconic venues across Belfast in 2025 and 2026. We’re looking for six talented performers or composers who have a strong connection to Belfast and are passionate about engaging with our community.

Applications open on 19th August 2024 and close on 21st October 2024 at 5pm. Don’t miss out on this incredible opportunity to be part of Belfast’s musical story!.

How many of us have an unused gift card sitting in a drawer somewhere? If you’re like most, that forgotten card might be contributing to some surprising financial figures.

Starbucks recently reported holding a staggering $1.77 billion in unredeemed gift cards at the end of its fiscal third quarter—up 9% from the previous year. This isn’t just a massive sum of idle funds; it represents an interest-free loan from customers to the company.

What’s even more interesting is the concept of “breakage revenue”—the portion of gift card balances that will likely never be redeemed. Last year alone, Starbucks recognized $196.1 million in breakage revenue from its company-operated stores.

While we often think of gift cards as a future purchase commitment, the reality is that a significant portion of these funds may never translate into actual sales, giving companies like Starbucks a notable financial advantage.

It’s a fascinating example of how consumer behavior can create unexpected opportunities for businesses. So, the next time you find that unused gift card, remember—there’s more to it than meets the eye!

Sven-Goran Eriksson delivers final goodbye and how he wants people to remember him. 💔

“I had a good life. I think we are all scared of the day when we die, but life is about death as well. You have to learn to accept it for what it is. Hopefully at the end people will say, yeah, he was a good man, but everyone will not say that.

“I hope you will remember me as a positive guy trying to do everything he could do. Don’t be sorry, smile. Thank you for everything, coaches, players, the crowds, it’s been fantastic. Take care of yourself and take care of your life. And live it. Bye.”
