Why are live music venues turning to online booking platforms? As well as streamlining the booking process, it’s also a great way to ensure a memorable and high-quality experience for your guests. That’s where we GigPig come in — we are an online music and gig booking platform, designed to make the booking of gigging musicians across the UK simple, efficient, and hassle-free.

With access to our wide network of artists and seamless gig booking processes, we’ve got all the reasons you need to switch to digital gig booking.

Let’s take a few minutes to learn about how online booking platforms like ours can revolutionise the way you manage live music performances, shall we?

A simplified gig booking process

Traditional booking methods like cold-calling or emailing can be time-consuming, frustrating, and filled with uncertainty. The truth is that an online music booking platform can eliminate a lot of the hassle. Instead of enduring  endless emails, phone calls, and spreadsheets, you can streamline your entire process in just a few clicks.

From discovering and booking new musicians to managing contracts and payments, you have everything you need under one umbrella. Plus, our gig booking online system allows you to easily track and manage all of your bookings at once.

Did we mention that we’re also committed to clear and transparent pricing? Say goodbye to the days of awkward conversations and surprise invoices. We have no hidden or varied booking fees, and you’ll never pay more than £10 for a booking fee per gig.

Save yourself valuable time and resources, and focus on what matters most — providing top-notch entertainment with an unforgettable atmosphere for your guests.

Access to a wide network of musicians

One of the greatest benefits of booking with us? With an online music platform, you’ll have access to an ever growing talented musician network. Whether you’re looking to book gigs with local talent or headliners across the UK, our talent pool means you’re never short of options for your venue.

We also offer detailed artist profiles on our gig booking website, making it easy for venues to choose the right performers. From solo musicians to full bands, you can browse and filter by genre, location, and performance style to ensure you find the perfect match for your venue and event. 

Most of our artists have demos on their profiles, so that you can get a taste of their style before booking!

Save time and effort with automation

Another reason to switch to an online booking platform is the ability to automate time-consuming tasks. Our live music booking platform will take care of the admin so you don’t have to. With the help of automation, we can reduce errors, ensure timely payments, and make your communication efforts with musicians more efficient.

Our system also allows venues to book gigs online in advance, so your calendar will always be full of live music events. Focus more on your venue’s day-to-day operations, and we’ll take care of the technical details.

Effective gig management and event promotion

We know that managing a live event can be hectic, from logistics to promotion. With this in mind, we like to give venues the tools they need to manage their live music events effectively.

We offer features that allow venues to create and customise their listings, ensuring that every gig gets the attention it deserves. By making the booking and managing of gigs a breeze, we can help venues like yours deliver unforgettable experiences to their audience.

Build sustainable relationships with musicians

While it’s great to find the perfect performer for your next event, it’s just as important to build relationships that last. Through our musician platform, you can foster and grow  ongoing partnerships with artists, ensuring they return to your venue time and time again. 

Artists really appreciate a streamlined booking process just as much as venue managers do. With this in mind, our gig booking platform can develop positive working relationships that benefit both parties.
