Which one fits you

The artist's management or agency

Best for: Promoters with an existing relationship with the artist's team and their own production.

  • It is the official channel, with no intermediary.
  • Ideal if you already know the artist's team.

Keep in mind:

  • Finding the right contact takes time, and agencies expect a serious offer from the start.
  • You handle the contract, deposits, flights, hotels and rider.

SkyArtist

Best for: Promoters, festivals, venues, brands and private clients who want to book a specific Latin artist with contract, payments and logistics in one place.

Keep in mind:

  • It is not the artists' exclusive agent: it takes your offer to their team, who decide each date.
  • The roster is Latin-focused; other artists can be requested, but that is not its specialty.
