Entertainers

This is a don't miss event for entertainers looking for performance opportunities state-wide. The Entertainment Showcase gives performers the chance to showcase their skills for over 150 industry professionals looking to book for their events.

  • Small Stage: Our small stage offers 18 performance time slots and highlights children's acts, individual performers, and musical duos.
  • Large Stage: Our large stage offers 24 performance slots, including 6 primetime slots during lunch, and highlights large bands booked for concert series and festivals.
  • Exhibit: All small stage and large stage performance times include a tabletop exhibit from 9:30 to 3:30 so that performers can network with potential clients and provide further information on fees and availability. We sell out FAST! If you missed your chance at a performance time, be sure to grab a tabletop anyway! 
  • Advertising: Looking for additional exposure?  Be sure to take an ad in our playbill which is handed out to every attendee who registers for the show.  There are pricing and sizes to fit every budget!

Performance times and tabletops are awarded on a first-come, first-served basis, and we cannot accept applications once all of the performance time slots have been filled.
