Gig Lab

Gig Lab is a venue management and booking software company based in Sunderland, UK, serving live music venues and promoters across the UK. The company provides digital solutions designed to streamline diary management, eliminate operational inefficiencies, and improve collaboration between venues, promoters, and booking agents. Built on decades of industry experience, Gig Lab addresses a critical pain point in the grassroots music sector: the fragmentation of booking workflows across emails, spreadsheets, and disconnected tools that lead to missed opportunities, double bookings, and lost revenue. The platform helps venue managers and booking teams gain visibility into availability, reduce administrative overhead, and build stronger relationships with talent partners. Gig Lab's innovations have been recognized with two awards from Innovate UK, including the Women in Innovation Award. Two team members serve as Trustees of LIVE Trust and Music Venue Trust, reinforcing the company's commitment to supporting the sustainability and growth of the UK's live music ecosystem.
