Mervyn Conn (born 5 February 1935) is a British music promoter and entrepreneur.
He started work in the fashion industry, but by the early 1960s, with the help
of his cousin, the comedian Bernie Winters, he had begun running a club,
Romano's, in Gerrard Street in Soho, London. He worked closely with agent Joe
Collins (the father of Joan and Jackie Collins), and staged the first Beatles
Christmas Shows in 1963. He then managed many of the major pop music touring
shows in the UK, including those headlined by such bands and musicians as P.J.
Proby, The Byrds, Johnny Cash, Billie Jo Spears, Chubby Checker, Marlene
Dietrich, Sarah Vaughan, Chuck Berry, Peggy Lee, the Red Army Ensemble and many
more. He also directed the Melody Maker Pop Shows held at Wembley Arena in the
1960s, before launching the annual International Festivals of Country Music held
at the same venue between 1969 and 1991. The shows were later taken into Europe,
and featured such stars as Johnny Cash, Dolly Parton, Tammy Wynette, Billie Jo
Spears, and Jerry Lee Lewis. More recently he has been responsible for major
touring shows including Annie and Three Steps To Heaven.
