Welcome to the GigaTools API (v1.0).
Browse
214838 Gigs in
3423 Cities in
138 Countries.
You can apply for an API Key and then using that, query the entire database of public Gig listings.
You do not need an API Key to read the Gigs of one GigaTools User or Group. If you want to do this simply read that User's / Group's public Gigs feed URL which you can find on the Admin site.

Gig data is searchable via location, eg: City, Country, Venue and/or date range as well as via a User's Soundcloud or Twitter ID.
The API is still in development, and we will post full documentation shortly. Thanks for your patience :-)
