How to book shows with LiveTrigger?

If you’re new to the LiveTrigger Community, you are welcome!

 

If not, what are you waiting for? Click here and join the most advanced live music community on the planet ?

 

Now, it’s time to start your search and book your next shows!

 

There are two main ways you can book shows on Livetrigger:

1. you can create a geolocalised Public gig Request on the map
2. you can search worldwide for venues, bands, musicians & promoters and send them a private message, what we call a gig request ✉

 

When you start organising music gigs and tours, it’s always better to start as early as possible.

This way you got time to ask for availabilities and wait for the responses.

Remember that the best venues and the top promoters are always busy, and sometimes they answer back to messages after a few days or weeks. 

That’s why we recommend you to start booking your shows at least 3 months before the actual dates: that’s the best way to find all the availabilities on time!

 

⚡ Find and book your next show on LiveTrigger

1. Sign up and log in LiveTrigger.com
2. On the Dashboard, click Search for connections on the big panel open in front of you
3. The Search Panel will open up on the top right of your screen

 

 

In WHERE you will find the location from where you are connected, if you allowed LiveTrigger to know your exact location

Post a Public Request

So, you want to organise a show, but you don’t have direct contacts in the area where you would like to play!

The best way to find a gig or organise a show is to ask the local community to help you and yes… it’s OK to ask your community for help!

 

Help other community members when they need it… the next time it might be your turn!

Today you may need some help ? from someone in your community and tomorrow you may help someone that needs help 

This way you can connect and, why not, became friends and make new great & valuable connections 

 

All right, now it’s time to take action and get practical:

1. Go to your dashboard
2. Click Post a Public Request on the big panel open in front of you
3. The Post a Public Request Panel will open up in the centre of your screen
4. Fill up all the fields and Post your Public gig Request in the city, the region or the state where you want to book a show or find a supporter, and let your music community help you!

 

 

When you create a Public gig Request, the whole LiveTrigger community members will be able to see your request on the map and help you: is that amazing? We think so ?

 

Not it’s time to post other Public Requests on the map and wait for other users to reply 

 

Sometimes it will take time to receive an answer, but it’s worth to wait a little bit, keep asking other user and connect with other community members to get a better chance to book shows. 

 

You’will see people are great and if they can, they will try to help you!
