Live entertainment booked the way it actually happens
GigArmy links UK venues, event hosts and live performers of every kind — singers, bands, DJs, comedians, magicians, dancers, tribute and variety acts — around real availability, travelling distance and fee.
For venues
- 1
Create your venue
Add your venue name, type and public area. Multi-site operators can add each location under one account.
- 2
Post the gig
Date, start time, act type and fee. It takes about a minute, and you can reuse a past gig.
- 3
Compare available acts
You only see performers who are genuinely free on your date and within travelling distance, with their fees and reviews.
- 4
Confirm and stay in touch
Confirm the act, message them in one thread, and both sides can see exactly where the booking stands.
For performers
- 1
Build your act profile
Stage name, act type, approximate base area, travel radius and starting fee. Guided setup takes a few minutes.
- 2
Keep your diary current
Mark the dates you're free. Confirmed bookings block those dates automatically so you never get double booked.

Find gigs near you
Search by distance from your base — 5 to 100 miles or anywhere in the UK — and apply in a tap.
- 4
Get confirmed and paid
The venue confirms, the booking locks in your calendar, and you can both leave a review afterwards.

Wedding, birthday, work do or charity night — with your date, area and rough budget.
