Instructions
Step 1
To organize a concert, try doing a little research on local bands and venues. Use the internet and specialized sites such as myspace and last.fm where you can find tons of interesting groups and get in touch with them freely.
Step 2
Try to think over in what genre you would like to make a concert, and what venues are suitable for holding an event of this kind.
Step 3
Decide on the groups that will be performing at your event. You can do this with myspace. Find local bands that work in the genre you are interested in, make a list of suitable bands, and write a letter to each of the selected bands inviting them to perform.
Step 4
Once you have agreed groups and several venues in your head, it's time to decide on a date for the event. The best time for any concert is the weekend. You can easily knock out a weekend for yourself if you represent yourself professionally, inviting the art directors of the selected sites to familiarize themselves with your marketing plan, etc.
Step 5
To organize a concert, you will need promotional materials. For example, flyers and posters. The best way to make them is to ask your designer friend. Perhaps he will even undertake to make layouts for free or for a few entrance tickets to the concert. Make sure to provide the designer with correct and complete information about the date, place and name of the event.
Step 6
You can give pre-sale tickets to bands participating in the concert. Offer them interest on tickets sold. This way, you are guaranteed to attract more people to your concert.
Step 7
Promote your event. Distribute posters and flyers to the musicians. Let them distribute promotional materials to their fans. Also make sure you put up a poster at the club where the concert will take place.
