How to organize an online concert?

Organizing an online concert requires good planning, selecting the right tools, and coordinating several technical and

logistics. Here are the main steps to organize an online concert.

1-Planning the concert

-Define the concert: Decide if it will be an acoustic concert, a live session or an event with several artists

- Artist Selection: Invite the artists who will participate. Make sure they are familiar with the technology and have the equipment

necessary for good online performance.

-Choose date and time: Consider your audience's time zones if you have an international audience.

2- Choice of platform

-Streaming platforms: Select a platform suitable for live, such as YouTube live, Facebook live, Zoom, Twitch or dedicated platforms

like Stageet or Veeps. Choose a platform that allows interaction with the audience via chat or live questions.

-Streaming quality: Make sure the chosen platform offers good video and audio quality.

3- Technical equipment

-Audio: Invest in quality microphones and audio interfaces for the best sound experience

-Video: Use HD cameras or smartphones with good resolution.

-Internet Connection: Make sure you have a stable internet connection to avoid interruptions during the performance.

4- Promotion and ticketing

-Promotion: Use social media, email marketing, media partnerships or influencers to promote your concert.

- Ticketing: If you sell tickets, use platforms like Eventbrite, Ticketmaster or platforms specific to online concerts.

You can also offer free participation options with the possibility of online donations.

5- Rehearsals and technical tests

-Rehearsals: Organize rehearsals with the artists to make sure everything is working well (sound, image, connection).

-Technical tests: Perform a test of the streaming platform to check the quality of the audio and video and that the connection is stable.

6- Interaction with the public

-Live Chat: Engage audiences in real-time with questions or shout-outs

-Moderation: Have a moderator to manage the flow of comments and resolve any technical issues.

7- Monetization and donations

-Ticket sales: Offer different categories of tickets (standard, VIP with a private session, etc.)

-Donations: Use platforms like Patreon, Paypal, or Ko-fi to allow the audience to donate during or after the concert.

8- Recording and replay

-Recording: Consider recording the concert for later replay or sale.

-Rebroadcast: Offer the possibility to those who missed the concert to watch it later, either for free or by paying for access.

With good organization, your online concert can be a great success and reach a global audience!
