Who Can Participate?

Musicians & Venues

Hosting can be as simple as providing space on your porch or as complex as renting a stage and sound equipment. Hosts control the location, performance times, and list available equipment. Sites must:

1. Be within the City of Mobile
2. Be free and accessible to the public
3. Maintain space on the sidewalk for pedestrians

What is the Matchmaking System?

The Matchmaking System connects venues and musicians. After creating an account, venues and musicians can browse each other’s profiles to request a booking. If you already have your event planned and do not need the matchmaking tool, you can list your event using the system as well! Please watch this video tutorial for more information on registering.
