Editorial policy

Genuine Concert Guide aims to make concert-going easier to think about, without pretending that taste can be settled by a rule. Our editorial choices favour clear explanations, modest claims and advice readers can use for themselves.

Accuracy and care

We check names, musical terms and historical details before publication, and distinguish established information from interpretation or personal preference. Where an article discusses a programme or venue in general terms, it does not claim to describe every concert or room. We do not invent firsthand visits, interviews or testing.

Independence and labels

Editorial decisions are made for the reader's interest, not as a condition of a partnership. Any paid, gifted or otherwise supported material is clearly labelled so readers can tell it apart from independent editorial coverage. Partner placements are identified as partner material and are not presented as editorial recommendations.

Corrections

If you spot a factual error or unclear passage, send the article title and the detail in question through the Contact page. We review correction requests and update text when a change is warranted; significant corrections are identified in the article.

Illustrations

Some illustrations may be AI-generated. When they are, they are used as illustrations rather than evidence of a real concert, venue, performer or event.
