Jocky for venues: frequently asked questions
What is a booking system for live entertainment?
A booking system for live entertainment brings every part of booking artists together in one place: finding artists, sending requests, scheduling gigs and handling invoicing. Jocky is built specifically for hotels, restaurants and bars - where table booking systems look after your guests, Jocky looks after the stage.
When is a DJ the right choice?
A DJ is perfect when the hotel bar, the lounge or a club night needs energy that lasts all night. Many venues book a DJ for regular Friday and Saturday nights, but also for launch parties, after-work drinks that turn into parties and private events at the venue.
When is a live band the right choice?
A live band lifts everything from weddings and company parties to a restaurant's weekend programme. A cover band gets the dance floor going, while a jazz trio sets the mood for a dinner service - book a live band when the night should feel like a proper event.
When is a troubadour the right choice?
A troubadour - an acoustic singer-guitarist - is a venue's most flexible booking: perfect for after-work drinks, pub nights and dinners where the music carries the atmosphere without drowning out conversation. Many places book a troubadour as a regular fixture every Wednesday or Sunday.
When is stand-up the right choice?
Stand-up comedians turn Tuesday into the busiest night of the week. Comedy nights work brilliantly in bars, on hotel stages and at company kick-offs - a format that fills the room on nights that would otherwise be quiet.
When is a quiz host the right choice?
A quiz host is perfect for pub quizzes, music quizzes and team nights that keep guests engaged - and staying for one more round. A weekly quiz builds a crowd of regulars and fills the room on weeknights.
How much does Jocky cost for venues?
A single venue pays SEK 899 per month. Groups and chains with several sites get a tailored package, and Jocky is always free for artists. There are no hidden fees - book a demo and we'll walk you through the full pricing for your business.
How can a restaurant handle recurring bookings easily?
In Jocky you schedule whole months ahead and send availability requests to several artists at once. Your favourite artists are saved in their own list, so Friday's DJ or Sunday's troubadour can be rebooked in a few clicks instead of through long email threads.
Does Jocky work for hotel chains with several sites?
Yes. Jocky has a team system where multiple users and sites sit under one account, each with their own roles and permissions. Chains can book locally per hotel while still getting a central overview and centralised invoicing.
What's included in the personal service?
With our personal service you get a dedicated contact who gets to know your venue, hand-picked artist suggestions based on your concept and budget, and help planning entire events - from one-off nights to a full season's programme. You approve, we handle the rest.
How do we get started?
Book a demo and we'll show you the platform in 20 minutes, tailored to your business. Then we set up your account, invite your team and help you add your first bookings - most venues are up and running the same week.
