05 For booking agents

In development

More rooms.
One diary.

Keep the gigs for the venues you represent together. The booking agent workspace brings venue permissions, gig requests and artist conversations into the same place.

Booking agent accounts are being prepared for release. This is a preview of the tools being built for you.

Each venue decides who can book for it. Its gigs stay in its own name, and it keeps control of its payments. The native diary keeps upcoming gigs close; booking and messaging happen in the web portal.
