Yes, there will be royalties to pay for concerts in a church. If the Church has a venue licence with PRS for Music then you will pay any royalties through that. Some churches may have something called a CCLI licence. This covers 6 event per year, but only ones where the church, or a group associated with the church, is the organiser. If you are the organiser and are hiring a church you cannot perform under their CCLI licence, but could pay through Making Music. Find out more in our full guidance.
