Editorial policy

Honest Concert Guide aims to make concert-going clearer without overstating what a short explanation can establish. We favour careful wording, transparent corrections and clear distinctions between editorial work and paid collaboration.

Accuracy and scope

We check factual statements against material available to us and take care to describe uncertainty where it matters. Articles are written as general information, not as guarantees about a venue, performer, programme or event. Readers should consult the event organiser for details that apply to a specific performance.

Independence

Editorial decisions are made for readers, not as a condition of a partnership. A partner cannot buy a favourable review or control an editorial conclusion. Where a commercial relationship could affect how a reader understands a page, we identify it plainly.

Corrections

If you spot an error, contact us with the article title and the detail in question. We review correction requests and amend substantiated errors, taking care not to make a quiet change that could alter the meaning of a substantial article without explanation.

Paid material and illustrations

Paid or partner material is labelled so readers can distinguish it from editorial content. Some illustrations may be generated with artificial intelligence; when used, they are identified accordingly. Illustrations are not evidence that a particular performance, person or venue was observed.
