What 80 million live music fans mean to us

Today, we raise a toast to our fans, artists, industry partners and live music at large, as we surpass 80 million live music fans globally (!!!)—up more than 10 million from last year. Thank you for helping us fuel live music scenes from L.A. to Paris to Berlin and everywhere in between. 

We reflect on this milestone with excitement and optimism for what this continuous rapid growth means for the future of our industry and the half-million plus registered artists using Bandsintown to build audiences, engage fans, and sell tickets, music, and merch.

In a world of endless algorithms and screens, we celebrate live music as one of the last bastions of tribal human connection, tolerance and self-expression.

More fans using Bandsintown means more opportunities for artists, promoters, venues, and the industry at large. In the last year alone, our discovery engine delivered 1.5 billion personalized event recommendations to fans. That’s 1.5 billion opportunities to be seen, be heard, and connect with fans all over the world.

We’re here to help you tap into this growing community. Tools like our brand new Release pages are here to help you collect fan emails to announce and keep fans in the loop about new music releases, merch drops, tours, presales, giveaways, and more, while Promoted Emails help you reach the right fans by taste and location. 

As we grow, we’re more inspired than ever to work with you all toward our mission of connecting the world through live music. Here’s to the road ahead!
