Performance Rights
Performance rights refer to the legal permissions granted to perform a creative work, such as music, plays, or readings, in public. When an artist or a company creates a piece, they hold the rights to control how it’s used. This means if someone wants to perform that work in front of an audience—whether at a concert, theater, or event—they need to obtain performance rights. These rights help protect the creator's intellectual property and ensure they are compensated for the use of their work.

Performance rights refer to the legal permissions that allow individuals or organizations to publicly present or perform creative works, such as music, plays, or films. These rights ensure that the creators, like musicians or playwrights, receive compensation for their work when it is performed in front of an audience. Typically, performance rights are managed by organizations that collect fees and distribute royalties to artists and copyright holders. Essentially, if an event involves performing someone else's creative work, obtaining the proper performance rights is necessary to respect intellectual property laws.
