Interested in Performing

University Union UNIQUE Programs produces a wide variety of entertainment and educational programs, including concerts, lectures, cultural programs, films, comedy, and performing arts. If you are interested in performing at Sacramento State, we hope the following information helps guide you through the process.

We typically schedule events between 2 months and a year or more in advance, so please keep in mind that bookings for events in the very near furture are unlikely. We are also out of session most of December and January and rarely produce events June through August.

While there is no set formula for how we choose performers, the following factors are considered:

  • Does the artist have a record of performing professionally?
  • Are the materials presented to us of high quality?
  • How much of a draw/following/name recognition does the artist have?
  • Is the type/style of performance something that we have been looking for or that most people don't frequently get a chance to see/hear?
  • What financial expenses and security risks are involved?

The best way to show interest in performing for us is to fill out the form below.

Please be aware that we receive a high volume of requests, and while we would love to meet with everyone, our main focus is on producing programs for the campus. We cannot meet with or respond to everyone individually. We will contact you if we are interested, and we encourage you to include any important updates in your materials. Multiple follow-up calls or visits are not necessary and may delay the process. 

Additionally, we do not co-promote shows, provide funding, or handle event services like securing venues or marketing materials for outside organizations. Our mission is to offer affordable entertainment to the Sac State community. 

Thank you for your interest! 

Ajamu Lamumba,
UNIQUE Programs Advisor
