How Long is a Typical Show - What Does the Format Look Like?

Describes a typical format and timing of a show

Updated this week

A typical CouchConcert lasts 60-90 minutes, but the exact timing should be agreed upon between the artist and host beforehand. Below is an example timeline for a show scheduled to start at 7:00 PM:

  • 6:00 PM: The artist arrives to set up their equipment and merchandise (if applicable). This is also a good time to review the flow of the show with the host.

  • 7:00 PM: Guests begin arriving. This is a casual time for mingling and getting settled.

  • 7:30 PM: The host gathers everyone's attention, asks guests to take their seats, and introduces the artist. The performance begins.

  • 8:30 PM: The artist wraps up the performance, heads to the merchandise table, and mingles with the guests.

  • 9:00 PM: The artist packs up their equipment, and guests start to leave.

This structure ensures a smooth and enjoyable experience for both the artist and the guests, while providing flexibility for individual preferences or unique show circumstances.
