DHP business unit, DHP Concerts, brings together all its existing activity in booking and promoting live shows across its own venues and external shows and festivals all over the UK.  To date DHP has worked with some of the world’s leading performers and promoted various events all over the country, from Nottingham’s Universities and Arena to the Shepherds Bush Empire.

In May 1998 the company put on a free outdoor event, entitled What A Weekend, attracting some 50,000 people in Nottingham’s Wollaton Park. This pre-empted a series of outdoor commercial festivals at premises over the following years.

The subsequent City in The Park festivals attracted over 100,000 ticket holders since 1999 and established Nottingham as a fixture for both indoor and outdoor events for the biggest international performers.

At its own events DHP has booked some of the industry’s biggest name such as The Corrs, Green Day, Bryan Adams, Ronan Keating, All Saints, James and Gabrielle.

DHP has also promoted major tours throughout the UK with established artists such as Babyshambles, Gary Numan, The Fratellis and The Rakes, which was part of the “Club NME on Tour” that covered 11 cities around the country.  DHP is also promoting up and coming acts such as Son Of Dave and Scarling.
