Booking Agreement with Nightclub

Whether you're a booking agent or a band leader who books your own gigs, you can use this downloadable Booking Agreement to book a club engagement for a band or musical artist.

  • The nightclub contracts for the services of a band, singing act, or musician for a specific period of time (a week, a month, etc) or for a specified number of performances. Provisions of the Agreement include:
    • what happens if the nightclub defaults in its obligations;
    • time and length of the band's breaks or intermissions;
    • rules applying to the performance, such as dress, behavior, general conduct;
    • commission payable to the booking agent (if applicable);
    • a blank contract rider form, which can be used to add additional terms for either the club or the band.
  • You can personalize the agreement for each club or venue and tailor it especially for your agency (or for your band, if you don't use an agent).
  • Available in MS Word format.
