After its release, the critically-hailed album immediately soared to the #1 spot in the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, Switzerland and across Asia. It spent a rare three weeks at #1 in both the United States and United Kingdom and has so far produced two chart- topping singles with ‘Suit & Tie’ and ‘Mirrors.’ Internationally, the album hit the #1 spot on iTunes in 93 countries, stormed the UK charts to become the biggest debut of 2013 and earned Justin his first #1 album in Germany. It also shattered iTunes records to become the fastest- selling album worldwide in their history. The long-awaited release became one of Target’s top three best-selling albums in the past decade, topping first week sales of his last release FutureSex/LoveSounds. It also led Timberlake to become Target’s biggest selling male artist since 2002. This year, Timberlake has made a series of headline-making appearances including well- received live performances during this year’s Grammy Awards and the Brit Awards in the UK, an interview on the long-running The Jonathan Ross Show in London and a performance and interview on Germany’s popular program called Wetten Dass. He also delivered a ratings- busting hosting gig on Saturday Night Live where he helped the show reach a 14-month high in audience numbers and did a week-long guest spot on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon where ratings were driven up 33% over last year among the coveted 18-34 demographic. Justin’s performances including several comedy sketches were often the most talked about events the following day and week earning praise from media across the world. He also delivered solid ratings for The Ellen DeGeneres Show in April where, for the first time in the show’s 10 year history, someone was both their sole guest and musical performer. Timberlake was honored this year by TIME Magazine as an Icon on their influential Time 100 List. In addition to The 20/20 Experience World Tour, fans will be able to see more of Justin Timberlake live when he and JAY Z kick off their Legends Of The Summer Stadium Tour in Toronto, Ontario on July 17 that will take the musical heavyweights to 12 cities across North America.

It is the result of my own independent research except where otherwise stated.” Name: Victoria Curran Signed: ii Abstract This research study was carried out in order to explore the different methods of marketing that Green Man Festival utilises, to discover how successful they are, and whether they have changed and developed throughout the years. The study intended to critically review the literature surrounding festivals and festival marketing theories, in order to provide conclusions supported by theory when evaluating the effectiveness of the promotional strategies. It aimed to discover how modern or digital marketing affected Green Man’s promotional techniques, to assess any identified promotional techniques and identify any connections with marketing theory, to investigate how they promote the festival towards their target market, and to finally provide recommendations for futuristic methods of promotion.

  • R on the Application of the Friends of Finsbury Park -V- Haringey London Borough Council and Others Summary
    Press Summary R (Friends of Finsbury Park) v Haringey London Borough Council [2017] EWCA Civ 1831 (16 November 2017) (on appeal from the Order of Mr Justice Supperstone in the Planning Court [2016] EWHC 1454 (Admin)) Judges: Lord Justices Treacy, Hickinbottom and Singh Background This appeal concerns the powers of London boroughs to hire out public parks for music festivals. It does not concern Royal Parks. The Wireless Festival is an annual music festival held in Finsbury Park. The Friends of Finsbury Park sought to challenge the decision of Haringey London Borough Council (who are responsible for the Park) to hire part of the Park to Festival Republic, the company which organised the festival in 2016. This decision involved closing approximately a quarter of the park for just over two weeks. The Friends challenged the decision by way of judicial review, which was heard by Mr Justice Supperstone on 9 June 2016. He refused the substantive claim in a judgment on 22 June 2016, shortly before the relevant part of the Park was closed to prepare for Wireless Festival on 30 June 2016. The Festival went ahead; but the Friends were granted permission to appeal to resolve the issue for future festivals. The companies which run the Wireless Festival appeared as Interested Parties at the appeal, and the Open Spaces Society appeared as an Intervener. Arguments The Friends, with the support of the Open Spaces Society, submitted that the Council did not have the power to enclose such a large portion of the Park for such a long time and exclude members of the public who had not purchased tickets.

  • Wireless Festival: Finsbury Park: July 2016 – Application No: ‘Hgy02419’
    RESPONSE TO THE GENERAL CONSULTATION FOR APPLICATION - WIRELESS FESTIVAL: FINSBURY PARK: JULY 2016 – APPLICATION NO: ‘HGY02419’ The Friends of Finsbury Park is a charity that was formed in 1986 by people who care about Finsbury Park – its past, present and future. We support the use of Finsbury Park for the benefit of all local residents and park users, with events organised that are accessible to all who want to use the Park. We do not support the use of the Park for major events such as Wireless Festival which are simply too big, too noisy, unmanageable, unsafe and prevent local people and residents from enjoying the park. The Friends of Finsbury Park (FoFP) object to this application on the following grounds: Lack of Information: We believe that the information supplied on the event application is wholly inadequate and does not allow us to make an informed and meaningful response. Our request to see crucial information such as a Risk Assessment, Noise Management Plan, Green policy, Event Management Plan and a site map of the event has been refused, and detail about the vaunted community event is non-existent. We are not reassured by the promises given to improve control and management of the 2016 events. Such reassurances ring hollow as similar undertakings were given last year and then broken. Movement of heavy vehicles was neither effectively monitored or observed. Speeding heavy vehicles on the carriageway were regularly unaccompanied by buggies, particularly in the final days when Live Nation were ‘racing’ to leave site on time and avoid the incurrence of ‘overstaying’ charges.

This is exacerbated by the fact that participants disperse soon after the gathering, potentially spreading disease within their communities. The dispersion of participants also poses a challenge for traditional surveillance methods. The ubiquitous use of the Internet may enable the detection of disease outbreaks through analysis of data generated by users during events and shortly thereafter. Objective: The intent of the study was to develop algorithms that can alert to possible outbreaks of communicable diseases from Internet data, specifically Twitter and search engine queries.
