Talent buying
We buy for our own promotions, so we know what a fee should be before we ask. That is the difference between a quote and a negotiation.
- Real market fees, not list prices
- Holds and first refusals
- Counter-offer handling
One team, offer sheet to encore
Kingroyspin matches artists to audiences and then makes the show happen. Availability and fees come back fast, contracts are ours to chase, and on the day our production team is in the building — not on the phone.
Services
Take the whole service or just the part you are missing. Both are normal here.
We buy for our own promotions, so we know what a fee should be before we ask. That is the difference between a quote and a negotiation.
Line-ups built as a curve, not a list — headline weight where the money is, discovery where the room can take it, and a budget that still balances.
Technical delivery under one manager. Riders read line by line, suppliers tendered, and a schedule the crew can actually work to.
Sponsorship that survives contact with the artist. Rights, usage and on-site presence agreed at contract stage, not on the day.
Dates that make geographic and financial sense, with the visas, carnets and freight booked around them rather than after them.
Deal memos, riders, insurance and the night's settlement, all in writing. No handshake deals, no surprises at the end of the show.
The roster
Exclusive representation plus a vetted network we book from every week. Filter by category, or tell us the room and we will shortlist it for you.
Festival-main-stage names through to tastemaker openers. Full technical rider handled.
Touring acts, showcase sets and function bands with a repertoire you actually choose.
Scored ensembles, film-in-concert and licensed tribute productions with staging included.
Short-form spectacle for the gaps between the main moments, rigged to your venue.
Award nights, launches and galas, in English plus a working second language.
Names an audience recognises, briefed properly so the talk lands on your theme.
Selected work
Three nights that show the range: an outdoor festival, a routed tour and a black-tie room.
Festival · two stages
Programmed both stages, booked the headliner eleven weeks out after the first choice pulled, and rebuilt the running order without moving the curfew.
Tour · nine cities
Routed nine dates across five countries, carried the carnet and the freight, and settled every venue inside the same week the tour ended.
Private · black tie
Orchestra, a headline vocalist and three speciality acts across one evening, under NDA, with a stage change that took four minutes.
Process
The same four steps whether it is one DJ or a three-day festival.
Date, room, capacity, audience and the number you can actually spend. Fifteen minutes on a call saves three weeks of quoting the wrong acts.
Three to five names with real fees and real availability, and a hold on the ones you like so nobody else takes the date while you decide.
Deal memo, rider, insurance and the advance schedule. Everything the artist needs is agreed in writing weeks before anyone loads in.
Our production manager is on site from truck call to strike, and the settlement lands in your inbox the same week.
Who we are
Kingroyspin was founded in 2016 by promoters and production managers, which is why our shortlists come with a technical note attached. We have loaded in at four in the morning often enough to know which riders are real and which are a wish list.
The team is intentionally under twenty people. Every client is handled by someone senior, because handing a booking to a junior is how dates get lost.

FAQ
Still unsure? Email [email protected] — we answer every enquiry, including the ones we cannot take.
Availability and an indicative fee normally come back within 48 hours on working days. If an artist's management is slow, we will tell you that rather than leave you waiting.
Both models exist in this industry. We tell you which one applies to your booking in the first written offer, so the fee you see is the fee you pay.
There is no fixed floor, but below roughly €5,000 the economics rarely work for a full-service booking. We will say so early rather than waste your time.
Yes. Plenty of clients arrive with a name and want the contracting, advance and production handled. We are happy to be the middle of the job rather than all of it.
Every contract we write carries a cancellation and replacement clause. In practice we start looking for a replacement the hour we hear, and we have never had to open a refund window.
Most of our work is outside it. We hold the visas, carnets and freight relationships to run dates internationally, and we travel to the shows we book.
Enquiries
City, date, capacity and a budget range are enough to get real names and real fees back.
A person reads every message. If we are not the right agency for your night, we will say so and point you somewhere better.
