Green Bay-Fox Valley Entertainment Booking Agency
Finding the right headline act for a Green Bay event isn’t just about picking a name. It’s about knowing what the market will support, what artists are routing through the region, and how to negotiate from a position of information, not guesswork.
TSE Entertainment has spent more than 50 years booking nationally recognized touring artists for buyers across the country, including clients throughout Wisconsin. We work exclusively on behalf of event organizers, fair boards, casino entertainment directors, and corporate clients, never on behalf of artists. That means our only job is to get you the best act at the best price.
Green Bay is Wisconsin’s Northeast anchor and the home of the Green Bay Packers, the most community-embedded franchise in American professional sports and a cultural institution that shapes the corporate and entertainment market of the entire Fox Valley corridor. Oneida Casino Hotel (Oneida Nation of Wisconsin, five locations including Main-Airport and West Mason) is the official casino partner of the Green Bay Packers, a relationship that drives cross-promotion and headline entertainment demand beyond what the standalone Green Bay market would generate. Lambeau Field (81,000-plus capacity) hosts occasional concerts and events outside of football season that create routing leverage for Fox Valley entertainment buyers. Paper industry and manufacturing companies (Georgia-Pacific, Amcor’s Neenah packaging operations — formerly Bemis Company — and Bellin Health) anchor the region’s corporate event market with industrial Midwestern procurement standards. Fox Valley’s Appleton and Oshkosh metros add additional county fair and corporate event demand along the U.S. 10/41 corridor. TSE uses Green Bay’s position between Milwaukee and Upper Michigan to identify I-43 and U.S. 41 routing windows for acts building Wisconsin-to-Michigan tour legs.

What We Book in Green Bay
TSE sources and negotiates headline entertainment across the full range of event types active in the Green Bay market:
- Corporate events and conferences: Green Bay corporate clients typically book 6-18 months out. TSE books acts scaled to your guest profile and budget, from mid-tier touring acts to legend-status headliners. Earlier engagement produces better options at every tier.
- Private and gala events: High-end private events require discretion, flexible deal structures, and acts who travel well. TSE handles the full negotiation and contracting process.
- Fairs and festivals: Green Bay sits within driving distance of dozens of county and regional fairs annually. TSE’s Wisconsin routing relationships benefit Green Bay-area fair buyers directly, often producing fees unavailable to single-market buyers.
- Casino and gaming entertainment: The Green Bay region includes casino properties requiring regular headline programming. TSE books casino entertainment with the scheduling precision these buyers require.
- Concerts and public events: City festivals, outdoor concert series, and sponsored public events are a growing segment of the Green Bay market. TSE works with municipal clients, sponsors, and independent promoters.
The Green Bay Routing Advantage
Artists touring through Wisconsin frequently need dates in Green Bay to make their regional routing work financially. When an act has confirmed Milwaukee and Madison dates but needs a fill date in Green Bay, the buyer in that market has more leverage than they realize, yet most never use it.
TSE watches tour routing calendars as a core part of our buying process. We identify when an artist is actively building a Wisconsin or regional leg, and we use that visibility to negotiate fees that reflect what the date is worth to the tour, not merely what the artist’s agency lists as a floor.
For Green Bay clients, this can mean the difference between paying market rate and paying a rate no one else in the room knew was available.

What "Buyer-Side" Actually Means for You
Most talent agencies represent artists. Their job is to get those artists the highest possible fee. TSE Entertainment represents you: the event organizer, the fair board, the entertainment director. Our job is to get you the best possible artist at the lowest possible cost.
That means we have no incentive to push a particular act, no commission coming from the artist’s side, and no conflict of interest when we tell you an offer is strong, or that you should hold firm.
In a market as competitive as Green Bay, that independence is worth more than you might think.
Part of TSE's Wisconsin Coverage
Green Bay is one of several markets where TSE actively books entertainment across Wisconsin. Our statewide routing relationships, combined with 50 years of buyer-side experience, mean Green Bay clients benefit from deals negotiated with the full context of what’s on the road, not just what’s available to a single-market buyer.
