Live entertainment in Coventry

Coventry, packed out.

Coventry has a young crowd thanks to its two universities, a growing food scene around Fargo Village and plenty of locals’ pubs in Earlsdon and the city centre. That means demand for everything from student DJ nights to Sunday acoustic sessions.

How booking works

Post a night and choose from the acts who offer, or ask an act you like directly. Every act is checked before they can be booked. You pay when the booking is confirmed, we hold the money until the night has gone ahead, then the act is paid. If an act drops out, we find you a replacement.

Joining is free. Venues pay a booking fee of 15% on top of the act’s price, never more than £50.
