What is Matchmaking?
Matchmaking is our system of connecting musicians with venues. After creating an account, venues can browse musician profiles and vice versa and participants request a booking. A few tips:

• Don’t be shy! Feel free to send requests. It helps to put yourself out there and you can book as many shows as you want.
• Respond to requests in a timely manner. No one likes to wait to hear back. If it’s not a good fit, let the other party know so they can move on.
• Follow up! You can send direct messages through the system or reach out via phone or email.
• In the end, just about everyone who wants to participate will match up. If you need assistance, send a message to beloit@makemusicday.org.

Who can host?

• Is your venue located in Beloit?
• Is it free and accessible to the public?
