Choose your starting point
Spotify Live Events or a playlist concert finder?
Use Spotify for listening-based recommendations. Use ShowFindr when you want to check one specific playlist. Both can help you plan a night out.

Start in Spotify for recommendations
The Live Events feed suggests shows based on your listening. Change the city and narrow the dates when planning a trip.
Start with a playlist for a focused search
ShowFindr checks the artists from the playlist you choose in one metro area. Use a shared playlist for friends, a genre playlist for a scene, or a travel playlist for your destination.
Know what you're getting
ShowFindr Free includes one successful scan per UTC day and up to three visible matches; Pro unlocks full results and unlimited scans. Spotify Premium and ShowFindr Pro are separate. Neither a recommendation nor a match guarantees ticket availability.
