ShareTheStagePrivate beta · opening city by city

Where real venues meetreal performers.

Venues post their open slots. Performers apply direct. No agencies, no finder’s fees, no chasing someone who never calls back — and every account on both sides is checked by a human before it can post or apply.

We’re onboarding metro by metro. Tell us which side you’re on and we’ll email you when your city opens.

For performers

Stop chasing gigs.

  • Free, always. Apply to any gig, message any venue, keep every penny of your fee — we take nothing from bookings.

  • Real rooms only. Every venue has its business and address verified before it can post a slot.

  • One profile, every pitch. Media, genres, tech needs and how far you travel — sent in a tap instead of retyped in an email.

For venues

Stop chasing acts.

  • See who is actually available. Filter by genre, date, capacity fit and how far an act will travel to you.

  • Every act human-reviewed before they can apply, so your inbox isn’t a pile of copy-pasted spam.

  • Book direct. No agency markup, no middleman, no phone tag — offer, accept, done.

Why it’s different

Nobody gets in without being checked.

Anyone can claim to be a 500-capacity room, and anyone can claim to be a touring band. On the open internet that guesswork is your problem — you find out on load-in night. Here, a person reviews every performer and every venue before either can post or apply. Most reviews clear within a day, and the badge means someone actually looked.

It’s also why there’s a waitlist. Reviewing accounts properly doesn’t scale as fast as sign-ups do, so we open one metro at a time.

What a reviewer actually checks

Performers
Live footage or recordings, a gig history, and that the act is who the profile says it is.
Venues
A real business, a real street address, and that whoever signed up is entitled to book the room.
Agents
Approval before they can invite acts — so nobody can add performers who never agreed to it.

Three steps, then you’re booking.

  1. 01

    Get verified once

    Send a couple of links to your work, or your venue’s address and business details. A human reviews it — usually inside a day.

  2. 02

    Post or apply

    Venues publish open slots with date, pay and genre. Performers apply with their full profile attached, in one tap.

  3. 03

    Confirm and play

    Offer, accept, and it lands on both calendars. No agency in the middle, and no cut taken out of the fee.

Before you hand over an email.

Is it actually free?
Free for performers, permanently — applying, messaging and booking all cost nothing, and we take 0% of the fee. Venues start free too; a paid tier only unlocks bulk outreach.
When do I get in?
We open one metro at a time so verification keeps up. You’ll get an email the moment your city opens — no chasing.
I book on behalf of other acts.
There’s an agent account for exactly that — represent several performers and pitch on their behalf from one login.
I already have an invite code.
Then you don’t need the list — sign in and use it at signup.

Your next stage is on the list.

One email when your city opens. Nothing else, and nothing sold on.
