BOOKING | Underground

TOURING BANDS

We do some in-house booking but also rely on outside promoters to take some of the weight off of our shoulders. If you are in a touring band and do not have a booking agent we already work with, your best bet is to find a local promoter or band willing to book you a show in the DIY room.

Also, we don't book shows with phone calls. E-mail us (aka no social media DMs) at preservingconcerts@gmail.com with all of the requested information otherwise you may be ignored as we are simply flooded with requests.

LOCAL BANDS

Fill out the following form ONLY IF YOU'RE FROM THE PITTSBURGH AREA.

Alternatively, step up and book your own shows for yourself and for touring bands!

Rental information on all of our different rooms is detailed below.

Trading shows is definitely the best way for your own band to be able to go on your own tour!

PROMOTERS

Here is the basic information on our three different venue options.

It is best to call us and have a conversation about your plans and to have references of other venues or bands you've worked with for consideration.

Shows booked more than a month in advance are subject to cancellation if a show is booked in one of the two larger rooms on the same date. We have to prioritize a larger show over one happening in the DIY room. This is, however, an unlikely event for weekday shows but always a potential for weekend dates.

Shows booked less than a month in advance are concrete.

This venue has a 75 person capactiy and is all ages all the time.

A 50% deposit is required to hold the date for your show.
