Your Event Entertainment Options Are Stale

DJs. Photo booths. Magicians. Caricature artists. If you're planning an event in Austin and these are still your top entertainment options, you're leaving the best part of your event on the table.

Austin is a city built on creative entertainment. Your event should reflect that. For the full picture of what SideHustle LIVE offers, see our complete guide to SideHustle LIVE.

SideHustle LIVE: The Entertainment Upgrade Austin Events Need

SideHustle LIVE is a live comedy game show where real entrepreneurs pitch their side hustles to professional comedians. It's interactive, unpredictable, genuinely funny, and nothing like anything your attendees have seen at an event before.

Why event planners are switching to SideHustle LIVE:

  • It commands attention. Unlike background entertainment, SideHustle LIVE is a show that draws everyone in.
  • It's customizable. We tailor shows for corporate events, private parties, fundraisers, and conferences.
  • It's turnkey. We bring the host, comedians, entrepreneurs, and production. You just provide the audience.
  • It creates content. Attendees naturally take videos and share moments from the show, extending your event's reach.
