Talent buying
We buy for our own promotions, so we know what a fee should be before we ask. That is the difference between a quote and a negotiation.
- Real market fees, not list prices
- Holds and first refusals
- Counter-offer handling
One team, offer sheet to encore
The right act, the right room, the right night.
Elvoro matches artists to audiences and then makes the show happen. Availability and fees come back fast, contracts are ours to chase, and on the day our production team is in the building — not on the phone.

Services
Everything between the brief and the encore
Take the whole service or just the part you are missing. Both are normal here.
Festival programming
Line-ups built as a curve, not a list — headline weight where the money is, discovery where the room can take it, and a budget that still balances.
- Stage-by-stage curation
- Budget modelling per slot
- Clash and curfew planning
Show production
Technical delivery under one manager. Riders read line by line, suppliers tendered, and a schedule the crew can actually work to.
- Rider reconciliation
- Site and stage planning
- Crew and supplier management
Sponsor activation
Sponsorship that survives contact with the artist. Rights, usage and on-site presence agreed at contract stage, not on the day.
- Rights packages
- Artist approvals
- On-site brand delivery
International routing
Dates that make geographic and financial sense, with the visas, carnets and freight booked around them rather than after them.
- Route and cost modelling
- Immigration paperwork
- Freight and backline
Contracting & settlement
Deal memos, riders, insurance and the night's settlement, all in writing. No handshake deals, no surprises at the end of the show.
- Deal memos and contracts
- Insurance and permits
- Same-week settlement

Working with us
What actually happens after you email
No portals, no ticket numbers. A person reads it and replies.
-
01
Same-day reply
Every enquiry gets a human answer inside the working day, even if the answer is that we are not right for it.
-
02
Availability check
We go to the artists directly and come back with who is free, at what fee, and what the room would need to make it work.
-
03
Agreement
One deal memo covering fee, terms, cancellation, rider and payment dates. Read it once and it is done.
-
04
On the night
We are in the building. Changeovers, curfews, guest lists and the awkward conversations are ours, not yours.
Our side of it
Thirty years of show nights between us
The people behind Elvoro have promoted, toured and produced. Between them, more than 2,187 shows and enough cancelled headliners to have a plan for it rather than a panic.
We work from Stockholm and travel to the shows. An agency that never leaves the office learns nothing about the rooms it is selling.
- We attend the shows we book
- Contracts in plain language, not boilerplate
- Settlement within the same week, always

FAQ
Before you brief us
Still unsure? Email [email protected] — we answer every enquiry, including the ones we cannot take.
How quickly will I get a quote?
Availability and an indicative fee normally come back within 24 hours on working days. If an artist's management is slow, we will tell you that rather than leave you waiting.
Do you charge the client or the artist?
Both models exist in this industry. We tell you which one applies to your booking in the first written offer, so the fee you see is the fee you pay.
What is the minimum budget?
There is no fixed floor, but below roughly €5,000 the economics rarely work for a full-service booking. We will say so early rather than waste your time.
Can you work with an act we found ourselves?
Yes. Plenty of clients arrive with a name and want the contracting, advance and production handled. We are happy to be the middle of the job rather than all of it.
What happens if the artist cancels?
Every contract we write carries a cancellation and replacement clause. In practice we start looking for a replacement the hour we hear, and we have never had to open a refund window.
Do you cover events outside Stockholm?
Most of our work is outside it. We hold the visas, carnets and freight relationships to run dates internationally, and we travel to the shows we book.
Enquiries
Start with the basics
City, date, capacity and a budget range are enough to get real names and real fees back.
A person reads every message. If we are not the right agency for your night, we will say so and point you somewhere better.
