There are plenty of websites that show you when the big national acts are coming to town, but GigTown is all about local music. We provide fans with a premium show calendar for every restaurant, bar and venue that hosts live local music. 

What if I didn't book my shows through GigTown? 

If your show is booked through GigTown, it will automatically be added to your artist profile, venue calendar, shows page. But we realize you're hard at work playing all the gigs you can, so we've made it incredibly easy to add your entire music schedule to GigTown. 

GigTip: Not only will 'Adding Shows' let your fans and potential clients know when you're playing, but the more shows that appear on your artist profile, the higher your artist ranking.
