Mission
Our mission is to connect people with local live music while supporting the artists, venues, and spaces that make scenes thrive.
Our core values
Community Care
We believe live music brings people together. Gigpit supports local artists, venues, DIY spaces, and fans—fostering safer, inclusive spaces where everyone can participate.
Equal Visibility
We prioritize fairness and honesty, giving every artist and show equal visibility, without paid promotion or unethical algorithms.
Accessibility
Live music should be open to everyone. We want to remove barriers—financial, physical and social—so anyone can discover, attend, and enjoy local music.
Diversity
We believe better live music scenes are built through diverse voices, perspectives, backgrounds and experiences.
Meet Our Team
Gigpit is run by a small but mighty team of five who care deeply about this community. We’re always listening for ways to make it better together.
