Another bricklive event in London in July. Will be a good warm up for bricklive in the park.

I think the 2021 results will show a loss, but a much reduced loss from the year before. After all, about 6 months of the year were basically shut down because of covid. Neither are many of the new division events factored into 2021.

The brokers note will be important as that’s what will restore the financial guidance withdrawn because of covid and should hopefully provide forecasts based on reality. If all the talk and snippets given in various RNS so far are to be believed, that should show a massive turnaround for the company and may be just the catalyst for more to have confidence to invest. I believe there should also be a trading update that will hopefully show if they are on track to meet those forecasts.

Apparently viewers from 95 different countries watched todays kpopflex streaming event. :-)

You can still buy streams at 1995 yen, so it’s not that it’s too close to the event.

Could be a pre sold amount to a promoter in Japan ?

Streaming “Sold out” in Japan. Interesting!

Impressive interview. KPOP fest is “proper entrepenerialship”. This is exactly what small, high growth AIM companies should be doing. Lvcg is now doing that across Bricklive, KPOP and formula e.

Looks like the muppets have come back from lunch. No manipulation here ;-)

Solid consolidation at this level.

The team at Brightbricks have clearly been busy building dinosaurs. That bodes well as this is their most popular exhibits and is always in massive demand.

Nice nearly £50k buy from yesterday.

From the streaming RNS the marketing is covered by doors, but worth noting that lvcg have an MD in China, who I understand is engaged in helping with the marketing there. Kpopflex have also been very successful in raising the profile of the brand and getting these extraordinary social media viewing figures. Even if they only get a tiny bit of traction, the figures could really surprise.

One of the most powerful figures in the global automotive industry, Carlos Tavares, has told The Race that he has doubled the Stellantis Group’s involvement in Formula E because it has “the biggest potential to grow in society”.

And his comments on how Formula 1 factors into that potential FE growth are revealing.

Speaking at the Rome E-Prix last weekend, Tavares, who is the CEO of the world’s fourth-largest carmaker, described the current and future motorsport landscape as having “huge potential for Formula E to develop”.

Should be a nice earner next year, and not many costs for LVCG. You also have to add in the efest, the golf tournament, and the concert at the end.

Its still early days for formula e, but at some stage formula e might get as popular as formula 1. Look at silverstone that has sold out for all 3 days already. 365,000 fans and a grandstand with a 142,000 capacity (which at the cheapest ticket price of of £49 pulls in more than £7m a day).

Formula E revenue is generated from sponsorship, ticket sales, hospitality, exhibition and merchandising sales. In addition, LVCG get a management fee of £350,000 this year.

Alberto Longo says Cape Town can expect a crowd of spectators around 30 thousand-strong, with 23,000 grandstand seats.

Between 7,000 and 8,000 will be international visitors

The world is going electric. That means that we have more manufacturers than any other championship has ever had, in one single season... Jaguar, Porsche, Mahindra, Nissan, Mercedes, Maserati..

Worth noting that any limits to formula e crowd capacity was lifted earlier this year. Remember that Lvcg have a 10 year contract (5+5) to host the for,USA E in Capet Town.

Yet another bricklive summer event. From a repeat customer. Customers are very sticky because the product works to attract footfall. Seems to me that the bricklive touring division will be well in profit this year.

The Chairman was clear that there would be 2/3 events in 2022 and between 4/8 events in 2023. There’s nothing that suggests a 2nd date for 2022 isn’t going to be announced. I’ll replay your flip flopping trolling nonsense and serve it back to you with a big slice of humble pie when that happens.

Sorry stockman but that’s nonsense. You announce the events in the order that you land the contracts.

Remember that LVCG get £7.17 for each stream around the globe (excluding South Korea).
