How Long Does It Take to Hear Back From Performers?

1 min read Updated June 1, 2026Last reviewed June 1, 2026

After you request a quote or send a booking request, you usually hear back from performers within a day or two — though it depends on their availability and how far off your event is.

What affects response time

  • Your request is reviewed by ARRIVE before it reaches performers — usually quick.
  • Performers respond when they see a request that fits their availability and style.
  • Specific, complete requests (clear date, location, and budget) tend to get faster, better responses.

If you don't hear back

  • Give it a little time, especially for dates further out.
  • If you requested a specific performer, try requesting a quote from a few others as well.
  • Make sure your request has enough detail for performers to say yes.
  • Still stuck? Contact ARRIVE Support and we will help.
