Macbeth Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Is there any preference to booking a small venue that will sell out rather than a larger venue that will have vacant spaces? Is it purely financial? or are there any bonuses for performing to a sold out venue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sharkn20 Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 I asked the same question few weeks ago and didn't have any input about it... It would be useful to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePepsiPlunge Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 I enjoy have a sold out crowd better cause It sounds better than filling out only half a stadium, just a preference though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remianen Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Supposedly, a sold out venue has the crowd start at a higher level on the 'hot' scale than a venue that is not sold out. However, if you book a certain way (say, starting with good segments in the pre-show and/or to kick off the show), it may not be easily apparent. Depending on your promotion size and financial situation, it might be better to book the bigger venue for the additional fannies in seats rather than the smaller venue that's packed to capacity.
