Harvey Goldsmith began his career as a promoter in 1966 and by the end of the '60s had created such events as the Crystal Palace Garden Parties and the 14 hour Technicolor Dream. A decade later the concerts had moved to the largest Stadiums - establishing Wembley Stadium as a major destination for the top artists of the world and helping London to become the Number One City for popular concerts. As Harvey's career expanded so did the diversity of his projects. He promoted the first major global TV event, the Concerts for Kampuchea in 1978 featuring such artists as Paul McCartney, Queen and The Who. Set at Hammersmith Odeon, the event raised over $2 million from worldwide sales. In 1985 the pipe-dream of Live Aid was turned into a £140 million fundraising venture within ten weeks by Harvey Goldsmith and Bob Geldof, Uniting the World with Music as never before. Live Aid was the first ever "Global Juke Box"; two simultaneous concerts, one at Wembley Stadium and one at JFK in Philadelphia, with over 60 countries carrying 17 hours of television live. Harvey has been instrumental in developing popular music as a successful means of fundraising. Following the success of Live Aid came various concerts in aid of Human Rights, including the worldwide Amnesty Tour, and it was because of Harvey Goldsmith Entertainments' expertise in staging charity events that this company was brought in as Executive Producers of the 1990 performance of "The Wall" in Berlin. In recent years Harvey has explored the world of Opera. Luciano Pavarotti appeared for the first time in 1986 at Wembley Arena and agreed as part of his 30th Anniversary Celebrations in 1991 to perform a free concert in Hyde Park. This concert was a huge success (capacity 125,000) and drew attention to the many opportunities that London has in its great parks; Pavarotti himself returned in the '90s to perform again in the UK, at the Leeds Castle in Kent in 1993, and Manchester in 1997. The 1992 Tribute to Freddie Mercury to increase Aids awareness was a major TV, as well as live, success. Also in this year Harvey became chairman of the first National Music Day, which was instigated to promote the importance of music for everybody. 1,500 musical events - both professional and amateur took place all over the UK. In 1994 under the auspices of HRH The Prince of Wales and President Havel of the Czech Republic Harvey was appointed Executive Producer of The Prague Heritage Fund Gala Classical Concert. This concert featured Sir Georg Solti and artists Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, Murray Perahia and Gabriela Benackova and has been televised worldwide. The name Harvey Goldsmith has become synonymous with The Prince's Trust. Created by HRH The Prince of Wales to help the underprivileged youth of the UK it is famous for The Prince's Trust Rock Galas which started in 1986 and has included such luminaries as Eric Clapton, Elton John, Tina Turner and Phil Collins.
