Open the Live Music MapGigsHQ monitors multiple sources daily - but local knowledge is irreplaceable. If you know a bar, restaurant, patio, or venue that regularly hosts live music and isn't on our map yet, let us know.
We review every submission and typically add verified venues within 48 hours.
Most destination websites show a fraction of what's actually happening - Festivals & Ticketed events. The rest is invisible to visitors.
Most platforms only index ticketed events — missing the bar guitarist, the restaurant jazz brunch, the brewery acoustic session.
Facebook posts, Instagram stories, and venue websites are scattered and hard to find - impossible to aggregate manually.

GigsHQ is North America's most complete live music database - built to solve a problem that has existed for decades:
the music is happening, but most of it goes undiscovered.
Every night, thousands of live music events take place in bars, restaurants, patios, breweries, and community spaces across North America. Most of them are not ticketed. Most of them never appear in search results. They're announced on Facebook pages, Instagram posts, or on websites of unknown venues that nobody visits.
Visitors arrive in a city and ask: "What's on tonight?" Their DMO's website shows major happenings and ticketed events. GigsHQ shows the whole live music scene. The difference is not the music, it's the infrastructure behind the discovery.
GigsHQ was built to close that gap. We monitor multiple sources - venue websites, Facebook, Instagram, local event calendars, and more, and aggregate them into a single, clean, continuously updated database. The result is the most complete picture of live music in any city we cover.
We capture ticketed and non-ticketed events alike. The patio guitarist, the jazz brunch, the brewery acoustic session - the 80% of live music that every other platform misses. That's our core differentiator.
Our data engine monitors multiple sources per city - social media, venue websites, ticketing platforms, and local calendars - updated continuously so the database is always current.
Ticketed events are the tip of the iceberg. The other 80% - non-ticketed events - never appear on any platform. GigsHQ captures all of it.
Whether you're a destination organization, an artist or a venue owner - we'd love to hear from you.
