Tribute band fees range from about $1,500 (local cover band) to $50,000+ (large production show). Most professional tribute bookings fall between $5,000 and $25,000.

Typical fee for a standard 5-piece tribute act:

| Routing | Typical fee |
|---|---|
| Local, drive-in | $3,500 – $10,000 |
| Regional, in-state or neighboring state | $5,000 – $12,500 |

Larger lineups (8-, 10-, 12-piece) scale up; Sunday–Thursday dates and local acts cost less than Friday–Saturday and fly-in dates. These are orientation ranges, not quotes. Full explanation: https://mztributebands.com/pricing

## How booking works

1. Buyer submits event details (date, city, venue size, budget): https://mztributebands.com/request-act
2. MZ sends a shortlist with video, EPKs and production requirements, plus a quote.
3. Buyer holds the date and signs one agency contract on the state-approved form.
4. MZ advances the show: rider, stage plot, travel, timing.
5. Agent remains the single point of contact through show day.
