Introducing GigBridge: Go and do something new!
Bridging the gap between Talent and Opportunity!
Built for you, from the heart, by the minds at Ozstream, GigBridge has been created to facilitate direct relationships between musicians and live music venues.
Currently available in pre-release, GigBridge access is being offered by way of special invitation onto the platform.
Once we’re certain everything is right to go, GigBridge will be launched across Australia in February 2025.
As we navigate our pre-release and official launch, we’ll be asking for lots of feedback to understand how everyone is using GigBridge and to see where opportunities exist to introduce new features and functionality.
If our timelines hold true, our aim is to see GigBridge made available for all types of performing artists, businesses and opportunity creators in late 2025.
No matter whether you’re a musician or a venue putting on live music, GigBridge fosters connection, communication and collaboration, helping venues discover performers, and for performers to discover opportunities for work.
Get ready to join the GigBridge revolution, go and do something new, and help let the spotlight find out about you!
