You can also set a time limit for each performer, so that everyone gets a chance to shine.

Marketing

The next step is to market your event. This can be done by hanging up flyers around town, or by taking out an ad in the local paper. You can also promote your event on social media. Make sure to use hashtags so that people can easily find your event.

Equipment
