How much do major touring acts get paid to pay a concert? This "price list" has been making the rounds for more than a month. As the founder of national booking agency Skyline Music, I know that these prices don;t tell the whole story. While Degy, the middlemen that put together the list, is a totally reputable company, the prices shared are just starting points.
What a college pays to get a particular act on the specific Saturday night of their homecoming weekend can be very different than what a promoter pays to grab the same act on a Tuesday night in Des Moines while they are on tour. Nevertheless, the price lists below do provide an interesting and instructive look at the broadspectrum of what artists are paid.
$100,000 – $1 Million+
$50,000+
$30,000 – $50,000+
$20,000 – $30,000
$10,000 – $20,000
