How shows are sequenced geographically across a tour. Good routing minimizes drive time between cities (a 600-mile overnight drive after a sold-out show is brutal); bad routing has the band crossing the country zig-zag. Routing is the agent's responsibility at booking time and a constant tension with buyer availability and artist day-off preferences. Tools like Mapbox / Google Maps integrations help visualize routing during booking. A tight, well-routed run reduces tour costs and crew fatigue.
