A Master Tour alternative: GigSheets is simpler music tour management — guest lists, unified search, and push notifications — at a fraction of the cost.
Looking for a Master Tour alternative? GigSheets is a modern music tour management app that gives you the features you need without the complexity or cost of enterprise software.

GigSheets is designed for mobile editing, not a desktop tool with a companion app. When plans change at 2am, update the daysheet from the hotel room and push it to everyone. Offline editing is not available yet — Master Tour has that. GigSheets caches data so you can still read the tour when you are offline.
Master Tour is powerful but complex. It was built for arena tours with massive production teams. GigSheets gets you running in minutes, not hours. No training required.
Master Tour costs $65-75/month. GigSheets Standard is €29-34/month. For smaller artists that only go for short tours and don't require advanced features, it is completely free. For most touring acts, GigSheets has everything you need at a fraction of the price.
Collect guest requests from artists and crew, approve or adjust if needed, and share clean lists with venues. No spreadsheets, no back-and-forth.
Create a reminder for the entire tour or tie it to a specific day. Set a notification (or two) relative to the timezone of the show.
Need a promoter contact, a daysheet, or a PDF rider? One search finds contacts, sheets, and files. No folder archaeology. No 'which version is this?'
Master Tour is the industry standard for a reason. If you're running stadium tours with massive production teams, need the 150,000+ contact database, or require enterprise-level permissions and security, Master Tour is built for you.
If you need to edit daysheets with no signal, Master Tour has offline editing. GigSheets does not — yet.
GigSheets is for everyone else: club tours, theater tours, festival runs, and independent artists who need professional tour management without enterprise complexity.
Both platforms handle tour scheduling with daysheets, travel days, and show information. The difference is in complexity:
