What Is

The Live List?

The National Independent Venue Association presents the fourth annual The Live List in partnership with SARA powered by Tour Tech and SPIN Magazine. The Live List was compiled from the suggestions of more than 1,000 National Independent Venue Association (NIVA) member venues and promoters, each contributing up to 10 favorite up-and-coming live touring artists. Entirely curated by popular vote of the NIVA community, The Live List capitalizes on the expertise of entertainment professionals who dedicate hundreds of nights a year to seeing live shows and building artists’ careers.
