The Elated Advantage
A Marketplace With a Studio Behind It
Most booking sites stop at the listing. Elated is backed by a working Dallas studio that has produced photo, video and audio since the 90s, so talent can show buyers exactly what they are booking.
Talent gets headshots, 4K performance reels, demos and artist websites. Buyers get acts that look and sound professional before they ever hit your stage.
- Talent photography, video production and a 32-track recording studio.
- Stage, studio and space rental by the hour or day.
- Live sound and lighting for venues, galas and weddings.
Invitation-Only Marketplace
Get Your Act in Front of Texas Buyers
Elated connects Texas performers and creators with the people who book them: bar and nightclub owners, corporate planners, wedding coordinators, hotel groups and casting agencies across Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin, Houston and San Antonio.
- Gig alerts by text and email when a booking matches your act, location and rate.
- Live profile views and shortlist counts, so you know buyers are looking.
- After the trial, dues come out of booked gigs, not your card.
