Community Guidelines

Tourbook is a professional network and marketplace, open to anyone who has a role in touring live cultural events across the UK and Ireland. The primary aim of the platform is to help people working in this sector to make connections and find opportunities in and around performing and programming.

Tourbook’s responsibility as host to this community is to ensure that everyone who uses the platform is treated and treats others with professionalism, courtesy and honesty at all times. As a Tourbook user and contributor to this community, you agree to abide by the following guidelines:

Be Professional

The Tourbook community is a place to share your insights and knowledge about touring live performance with others. You should act professionally and courteously in how you represent yourself and any information you share on the platform at all times.

Be Yourself

Tourbook uses real names. You must represent your account, your pages, and yourself truthfully and accurately to how these are presented. No impersonations, no nicknames, no fake accounts. No exceptions.

Be Active

The more complete, accurate and up-to-date the content you provide is on Tourbook, the more easily others can find you and know if what you have to offer is right for them.

Be Constructive

You must be happy to put your name, and that of any organisation you are connected to, against anything you post publicly on Tourbook. Whilst itโ€™s ok for people to express different and critical opinions, your contributions must be on topic, fair to the subject and expressed with good manners.

Be Safe

Hopefully it goes without saying, but – please don’t use Tourbook for anything illegal or inappropriate. You must operate within the law in how you use the platform and you must not post anything threatening, obscene or defamatory.

A note on AI Usage

We recognise that AI is changing ways of working – and that this can impact on how visual content is presented. However, we also understand that AI visuals can confuse between real or artificial and that this can be misleading.

If you use AI generated or manipulated images on Tourbook which could reasonably be mistaken for actual photographic documentation (of a production, venue or person) you must indicate (using an image caption or description in any related text) that this is a mockup, artist impression, AI visualisation or similar appropriate term. This ensures that anyone viewing your content understands the difference between real photographic documentation or AI generated visual proposals.


If you come across anything that doesn’t comply with these guidelines,ย please contact us. Tourbookย will review every report received and will take necessary actions where appropriate.
