Rich event management

Every booking, with its whole story attached

An event in Sonic EMS is far more than a diary entry. Dates, sub-events, venues and spaces, contacts, technical needs, contract status, notes and files all live on the record itself - so the answer to “what is happening with this booking?” is always one click away, never a hunt through inboxes.

A Sonic EMS event detail page bringing dates, spaces, contacts and status together
The difference

From scattered and stressful to joined-up and calm

Without a system like this

  • Key details buried in email threads no one can find
  • A spreadsheet for dates, a folder for files, a mailbox for the rest
  • No single answer to “what is the latest on this booking?”
  • Changes that never reach the people who need them

With Sonic EMS

  • One record that holds the whole booking end to end
  • Sub-events for get-ins, rehearsals, performances and get-outs
  • Contacts, notes, files and contract status attached in place
  • Update once - the right people see it instantly
What you get

Built to do the job properly

Sub-events

Break a booking into get-in, rehearsal, show and get-out, each with its own times, spaces and staff.

Status at a glance

Enquiry, pencilled, confirmed, cancelled - colour-coded everywhere so the pipeline is obvious.

Contacts in place

Promoters, clients and suppliers attached to the event, typed by role, never re-keyed.

Custom fields

Capture the things unique to your venue - and report on them later.

Events

Find any booking in seconds

A fast, filterable list of every event - search by name, filter by status, venue, space, tag or date, and switch between event and sub-event views. The answer to “what have we got on?” is always a click away.

  • Search and filter by status, venue, space, tag or date
  • Colour-coded statuses at a glance
  • Switch between event and sub-event views

Every booking, searchable and filterable in one list.

Events

  • Global-event and sub-event custom fields
  • Per-field access control

Custom field management for events

Tailor every event record to your operation.

Events

Less retyping, more doing

Copy last season’s show as the starting point for the next, choosing exactly which details come across. Shift a whole run of dates by an hour, change their status or delete them in one go with bulk edit. Mark a date as all day, link related events together, and pull bookings in from an iCal feed instead of keying them by hand.

  • Copy an event, choosing what to bring across
  • Bulk edit times, status and options across many dates
  • All-day dates, linked events and iCal import
Events

Files and artwork where they belong

Riders, floor plans and risk assessments live on the event in folders, with folder-level permissions so sensitive paperwork stays private. Add marketing images to an event and they can appear on your foyer wallboards automatically.

  • Event folders with their own permissions
  • Thumbnails and a full file history
  • Marketing images that feed your wallboards
