How does booking talent with The Music Group work?

After getting a wish list of entertainers, a date and the budget you wish to stay within from your entertainment request form, The Music Group Agency find the act or acts from your list that are available for your specific date that fall within your budget. We then figure out how much of the production responsibilities you wish to take on (i.e. sound, hotel accommodations, ground transportation, etc.) and quote you a price for the entertainment inclusive of the production responsibilities that we will handle.

Is there an upfront fee to use Booking Entertainment.com?

It depends on the artist/talent. Most time it does.. The only time your have to pay anything is if we secure an act for you and our fees are built in to the overall price we quote for the entertainment.

 

What are rider requirements?

A rider is a list of what the performer requires to perform or make an appearance. It RIDES or is attached to the contract so it is called a rider. This rider includes everything from the number of flights to the sound requirements to the type of food and beverages that they require.

 

What do you mean by a TURN-KEY event?

When we say we can provide you with a turn-key event, this means that we will handle all of the necessary requirements mentioned above including providing a producer to fly in to the city where the engagement is being held to handle the show from A-Z. How much we handle depends on how much you feel comfortable dealing with (hotels, ground transportation, etc.).
