02ÌýMarket Research
The very first thing you need to think about is what your night needs to be a success.

Set up your own PA
By doing a bit of research you'll be able to work out if the night is feasible, where and when to hold it and what you can expect back from it.

A lot of people start nights because nowhere else does what they want.

If this is the case you are probably best off starting somewhere small.

However, if you've spotted a massive gap in the market you could risk starting bigger.

If there's already a lot going on in your hometown, you could consider starting something in a nearby town where the scene isn't so strong.

Do your research by going to clubs, record shops and talking to people.

Also find out what the best night of the week would be and if anyone has tried it before and failed.

Get together with your crew and think about how the night should run - including how many DJs and artists you'd like to feature.
