What are the best platforms for jugglers to find gigs?

GigSalad and The Bash are the highest-volume platforms for variety acts in the US. Festival-circuit listings (buskers, renaissance fairs, fringe festivals) cover a different audience and often pay better per day.

Do I need an agent as a juggler?

Not for most variety work — direct platforms and repeat corporate clients usually outperform an agent's cut. Agents matter more when you're targeting cruise ships, theme parks, or recurring corporate tours.

How much should a juggler charge for a corporate event?

Solo variety acts at corporate events typically book between $750 and $3,500 for a 30–60 minute set, depending on city, audience size, and travel.

How do I get on a festival lineup?

Most festivals open submissions 6–12 months in advance. A clean 90-second reel, a short bio, and high-resolution photos of you performing for a real crowd are the minimum.
