booking agent
Schedules performer appearances
A booking agent arranges engagements for performers, speakers, or athletes—negotiating fees, scheduling appearances, and handling logistics with venues or event organizers.
The agent typically earns a percentage of the client's fee: Her booking agent got her three stadium dates in Europe.
In travel contexts, a booking agent may also refer to someone who arranges reservations for flights, hotels, or tours.
