The Manager And Artist Contract is a crucial document used in the Saudi Arabian entertainment industry to formalize the professional relationship between artists and their management representatives. This agreement has become increasingly important following Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 initiatives, which have expanded the entertainment sector while maintaining adherence to local cultural values and Sharia Law principles. The contract typically covers essential elements such as scope of representation, commission structures, decision-making authority, and compliance with Saudi entertainment regulations. It's particularly relevant for both established and emerging artists seeking professional management in various artistic disciplines, from performing arts to visual media. The document must balance international entertainment industry standards with local regulatory requirements, including those set by the General Entertainment Authority (GEA) and other relevant Saudi governmental bodies.
