Showlist is now charging a small fee for show submissions.
We realize this is going to ruffle some feathers. While we are largely powered by automated listings pulled directly from venues, we still receive a steady stream of manual submissions from artists, promoters, and venues who want to make sure their show is included. These submissions require a human to review, verify, and maintain in real time.
The small submission fee helps cover hosting, maintenance, and moderation costs, and allows us to keep the site running without relying entirely on ads. Paid submissions do not affect placement or visibility, they simply help support the infrastructure that keeps Showlist running.
Note:
If you will will be submitting shows regularly, consider becoming a
Showlist Supporter. All membership levels include one show submission credit per subscription dollar per month which is a slightly better deal than buying credits separately, and at the $20/month level, you get unlimited submissions.
Please authenticate below using your email address to submit a show. If you previously purchased show submission credits or are a Showlist Supporter, please use the email address that you either signed up as a Showlist Supporter with, or that you have previously purchased show submission credits with.
Note:
We are in the process of migrating off of Patreon in favor of our own custom solution due to Patreon's high fees. If you'd like your monthly Showlist Supporter subscription amount to be counted towards show submission credits, you'll need to cancel your subscription through Patreon and sign up for a new Showlist Supporter subscription

Be sure to fully read these instructions as well as the instructions on the individual fields. Submissions that don't follow the form guidelines will not be listed
Use this form to submit a show.
The show will not immediately go up on the site.
Using this form does not guarantee that the show will be listed, it merely makes sure the info gets to us in a form that makes it easier to add it to the site. Try to submit your shows
at least 1 week in advance
to ensure we have time to review your submission before the show date passes.
Our focus is live original music. We do not list comedy, theater, or cover bands shows. We also do not list open mic or open jam type events. Please do not submit these kinds of events. It just creates more work for us and we will not post them.
Before submitting a show, please check the list to make sure that it isn't listed yet.
If the show is at a venue that we regularly list and you don't see it on the site, check the venue site to make sure it's been listed there before submitting it to us. When it goes up on the venue site, it will show up here within 24 hours.
If you are submitting a show as an artist rather than a booker/promoter, make sure you include all of the bands on the bill in your listing.
If the bill isn't complete yet, please don't submit the show.
Please do not list set times with each band.
Set times should be listed at the link you provide for your show.
If your show is published, your will receive a confirmation email.
