About Songkick

We believe that an amazing concert can change your life. We want to give you a way to share that experience, so the concert can live on for everyone. And then we want to help you find your next gig.

We’ve spent over a year painstakingly gathering tour dates from around the web to accumulate over 1 million concerts. That’s not every concert in existence, but it’s a start! We hope that, with your help, we will create the definitive live music resource. Before we started, there wasn’t a single place where you could see an artist’s entire tour history and see all the gigs a legendary venue has hosted. We thought, wouldn’t it be cool if we made that? Every concert and festival deserves a home online, where you can share your experience with posters, photos, videos, setlists, reviews, and more.

But we want this to be more than just a live music database. We want it to be a place for you to share your personal gigography of all the gigs you’ve ever been to, and see who else was there—a place for you to put that box of ticket stubs online. All those concerts and festivals have shaped who we are, and we want to share those memories.

We’re not living in the past though! We’re still going to great gigs every week. To make it easy to find your next gig, you can track your favorite artists, venues, festivals, and even your concert buddies, and we’ll let you know when they have new upcoming events. For our upcoming listings, we index 29 different ticket vendors across the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, in addition to 9 local newspapers. If we’re missing any upcoming shows, please add them! Each concert or festival page aggregates all the ticket options, so you can compare prices, and buy the cheapest ticket.

We hope we’ll be your live music hangout on the web.

Songkick was founded in 2007 by Ian Hogarth, Pete Smith, and Michelle You: three friends who thought it was way too hard to find out when their favorite bands were coming to town.
