Pride and community events
Recognisable drag and cabaret talent, hosts who can hold a crowd outdoors, and acts with genuine relevance to the community you're programming for.
For event bookers
Built for the events you actually run.
One brief, whatever the room. ShowSelect adjusts what 'a good fit' means depending on who's in the audience and what the night has to deliver.
Where ShowSelect works hardest
Corporate and conference
Hosts, awards compères, after-dinner speakers and entertainment that lands with a mixed professional audience without going off-message.
Festivals and outdoor
Stage-ready acts with festival experience, realistic technical requirements and the draw to justify a slot on the bill.
Universities and student events
Names students actually recognise, priced for a students' union budget, with the social reach to help you sell tickets.
Private parties and weddings
Bands, DJs and performers matched to the guest list, the venue's limits and the moment you want people to remember.
Brand activations
Talent whose audience overlaps with yours, with clear evidence behind any claim about their reach or recognition.
What you get on every option
- Why we've selected them — the reasoning against your brief, not generic marketing copy.
- Budget fit — likely within, possible stretch, or unknown. Never a fabricated quote.
- Source evidence — the claims behind the recommendation, with where they came from.
- Availability status — honest until the booking desk has actually checked your date.
Already know who you want?
Plenty of bookers arrive with a name already agreed internally. You don't need to be sold options you didn't ask for — send the name straight to the booking desk and we'll go and make it happen, with alternates ready in case the date doesn't work.
What else you'll be able to source
Entertainment is live now. Food and bars, traders and stalls, and production and crew are being built into the same one-brief model — for now these pages only capture interest, and nothing there can be enquired about or booked.
