Apple offers concert discovery features on Apple Maps exclusively to venues using Bandsintown. Fans can discover concerts using Apple Music Guides and Set Lists — two new ways to connect artists with audiences. On Apple Maps, users can find over 40 Apple Music Guides showcasing top venues for live music. Concerts are also discoverable on Apple Music through Set Lists that spotlight major upcoming tours. Learn more from Apple.

First, claim your venue on Bandsintown Pro.

Once your venue is claimed, visit the Events section and be sure all of your upcoming shows are listed—this is the data Apple Maps uses to retrieve your events. Apple Maps pulls all published events associated with your Bandsintown venue page and displays them each time a user discovers your music events on Apple Maps. There is no limit or restriction to the number of events that can be displayed.

If you add or remove an event or update an existing one, your changes will appear on Apple Maps within 24-48 hours. To submit an urgent modification request, email [email protected].

If you do not see your events on Apple Maps, or if you do not see your changes reflected, double check that your venue shows up on Apple Maps and wait 48 hours for the changes to be reflected. If you still do not see your events after 48 hours, email [email protected].

In the Apple Maps app, search for your venue. Beneath the venue name and location, click on Tickets. This will take you to the Shazam module, which automatically displays listed music events from your Venue Bandsintown page.

Apple Music features curated Guides in 40 major cities highlighting the best venues to experience live music in some of the world’s leading culture hubs. Through these Guides, fans can browse venues’ upcoming shows directly from Maps through Shazam’s concert discovery module.

To make sure your events are eligible to appear in Apple Music Guides, follow the instructions above for claiming your Bandsintown venue page and adding your events. By ensuring that your information is up-to-date on Bandsintown, Apple may choose to feature your venue in an upcoming Guide. Guides are curated exclusively by Apple Music editors, with no curatorial input from Bandsintown.

Events listed on Apple Maps include a link that may point either straight to the ticket provider’s website or to the corresponding Bandsintown event page, at the sole discretion of Apple Music.

On the Bandsintown event page, fans can find ticketing information and purchase options as well as subscribe to ticket inventory alerts and reminders.

We encourage venue owners to create an Apple Business Connect account which allows you to manage your information including business location, business hours, contact info, photos, and reviews on Apple Maps. Apple Maps is used by millions of people for navigation and local search. Ensuring your information is up-to-date and consistent across platforms is a great way to help fans find your tour dates.
