Female artists working on the Celtic Connections festival have claimed they were pressured into having sex in return for bookings.
Five women say they were assaulted or feared losing opportunities to perform if they spoke out.
The festival was awarded a share of the Scottish Government's £2m Festivals Expo Fund on Tuesday (February 8).
A Celtic Connections spokesperson said its Bit Collective is helping individuals who have faced harassment to come forward.
"Our main objective is for everyone to create and enjoy world class culture experiences in a safe and comfortable setting".
