Show promo, ticketing & touring ops
What surrounds a show once it exists: ticketing it, syndicating the date, alerting fans and running the touring ops. The finding of the show itself lives next door in gig & festival finding. One honest note on booking agencies: we checked nine respected US/UK/DE agencies and none has an open demo door — agents come to rooms, not inboxes. Build the live story first; the tools here are how.
- ABOSS — Professionally touring artists and agencies that need one source of truth across bookings, management and road teams.
- Bandsintown — Alerting nearby fans automatically every time you announce shows. Touring artists who want one central place to publish shows, distribute dates across major platforms, identify strong markets, and notify fans near each performance.
- DICE — Ticketing credible club shows with built-in discovery. Artist-promoters and live teams that prioritize concert discovery, mobile ticketing, anti-scalping controls, real-time sales data, and filling returned tickets through a face-value waitlist.
- Eventbrite — Fast self-service ticketing for your own headline shows. DIY artists and small teams that need to launch a professional ticket page quickly, collect attendee information, reach Eventbrite users, and manage admission without venue-provided infrastructure.
- Gigwell — Artists and agencies actively routing tours, managing numerous offers and tracking ticket sales across markets.
- Humanitix — Independent artists and promoters running their own shows who want comparatively low fees and a socially responsible platform.
- Master Tour — Touring artists with managers, crew and complex multi-date logistics that change frequently on the road.
- Resident Advisor — Credibility and listings in serious electronic music scenes. DJs, electronic producers, live electronic acts, club promoters, and festivals whose audiences already use RA—particularly within house, techno, bass, experimental, and underground dance scenes.
- Songkick — Syndicating tour dates to fan calendars and alerts everywhere. Touring artists who want another free discovery channel, automatic alerts to interested fans, and one dashboard for maintaining concert information across Songkick and selected partner platforms.
- TicketWeb — Artists promoting shows through independent venues or promoters already using TicketWeb infrastructure.
- Tixr — Artists, promoters and venues selling higher-volume events, VIP packages, merchandise or premium experiences.
- Vampr — Finding first collaborators and scene contacts app-style. Musicians, producers, songwriters, and engineers who want app-style discovery for collaborators, bandmates, session work, and remote creative projects.
