Getting Started

The first step to connecting with your fans on Bandsintown is setting up your artist page. Head over to the Bandsintown website, then use the search box at the top to see if your artist page already exists. You may already have an auto-generated page you only need to claim. If not, follow these instructions to create an artist page for yourself or an artist you manage.

Fill out your profile and connect the accounts you already use so fans can get to know you better and stay up to date! Make sure you update your photo, add a bio, genres, and social links so we can help drive more discovery, engagement, and sales for you.

It only takes a few clicks to add events, either individually or using our Event Upload tool to add multiple events at once. Then we’ll notify your followers about your new dates and start showcasing them across Bandsintown through our powerful discovery engine.

Bandsintown automatically finds your events from ticketing partners so you don’t have to! Head over to your Settings to choose whether to announce them to your fans right away or always review them first.

With our customizable Widget you can seamlessly showcase your tour dates and live events on your website to drive ticket sales and build your audience. The Events API offers you the same capabilities as the widget with a deeper level of customization.

Start sharing your customizable Smart Link to drive fans to a landing page where they can view your events, buy tickets, RSVP, follow you across channels, and share their contact info. If you're using retargeting pixels in your marketing strategy, you can easily plug them in.

Our Fan Manager dashboard lets you dive deep with your Bandsintown followers and fan contacts, giving you valuable audience insights and letting you send targeted direct messages.
