Show Trades Home
Welcome to the Show Trades section! We created this part of the site to help touring bands match up with local promoters/bands to book shows and network with each other.
There are two parts of this section: Show Offers and Show Requests. The Show Offers are for shows that are already booked, but need bands to fill the bill. The Show Requests are from bands looking to get on a show.
To get started, you must be registered. Once registered, try searching through available offers and requests by clicking the "Search for Trades" tab.
If you are a promoter, band, or agent that already has a show booked, and you need to find other bands to play it, click the "Post an Offer" tab. If you are a band booking a tour and you are looking for shows in certain cities, click the "Post a Request" tab to get started.Recent Shows Looking for Bands

E.I.Y. Tip
When you contact a band and ask them to book a show for you in their hometown, it is customary to offer them the same thing in return. It is important that you follow through on your end of the trade, and that you match their value exactly (same guarantee, same draw, same slot on the bill, place to stay, etc.). If you always hold up your end of a trade, you will get a reputation for being honest and dependable, and bands/promoters will work with you regularly and speak highly of you.
