Music Licensing

BPAA members collectively saved more than $2 million last year by taking advantage of the exclusive music licensing program. Music is like all personal property–when you want to borrow it, you must ask permission. All public performances must be licensed. This is why BPAA works to negotiate substantial discounts on your behalf with each of the three companies representing different copyright owners and a unique catalog of musical work. 

*Please note that if you charge a cover charge, you can not use this discount program. 

The Deadline for paying music fees is 12/31 for the upcoming year.  Centers who have paid music fees, but do not join BPAA membership will be contacted by the music agencies to work out the non member rate.
