Aim
Atlas Touring are pre-selling hires and merch in order to keep our wheels turning and our Splitter Vans ready to return to work post COVID.
Atlas Touring provides top quality and reliable transport for Bands & Artists from all around the world who tour in the UK & Europe.
Foreword from company director Mike Griffiths, based in Blaydon-on-Tyne: For the best part of the last decade I have been building our fleet of custom tailored Splitter Vans, constantly innovating and improving not just the vehicles, but also the services we offer to make your tours and events run as smoothly and comfortably as possible.
The global COVID-19 pandemic has created a very uncertain landscape for millions of British small businesses, including us at Atlas. In the face of this uncertainty, we are focusing on the road ahead and what it will take to keep our wheels turning when it is safe for gigs and touring to start up again.
We are looking to raise funds by pre-selling van hires and also an exclusive line of Atlas Touring merchandise. The funds we raise will be used to maintain our fleet, keeping the vans safe and insured, while also putting in place new cleaning and booking systems to prevent any transmission of the virus going forward in the post pandemic environment. This is something where we anticipate being vigilant and extra thorough will be especially important.
In the rewards section you can pay for future van bookings at a discounted rate, these will be redeemable once we are back up and running and will not expire.
You can also purchase one of our 'Atlas Logo' or 'The Road Ahead' t-shirts which will be produced on a limited run.
