Concert Log App — keep a log of every show
Gigvault is the concert log app for serious live music fans. Keep a comprehensive log of every show you've attended — dates, venues, setlists, photos, notes, and stats. Native iOS app, Android app, and full web access. Free forever, ad-free, privacy-first.
How to keep a concert log that actually survives
The number-one reason concert logs fail is friction. If logging a show takes more than 60 seconds, you stop doing it. Gigvault's log is designed around 30-second entries: search artist, tap "I was there." Venue, support acts, and setlist auto-fill. The reason concert logs in Apple Notes, Google Sheets, or paper journals always die is because there's no auto-fill — every log takes 5-10 minutes of manual data entry.
What goes in your concert log
Each log entry captures: date, venue, city, country, headliner, every support act (each separately tracked), full setlist in play order, photos and videos, 1-5 star rating, personal notes, and tagged friends. Festival weekends get logged set-by-set — Glastonbury with 22 sets becomes 22 log entries, not 1. This matters for stats, top-artist rankings, and Concert Wrapped accuracy.
The best concert log apps compared
The dedicated concert log space has narrowed dramatically: Songkick killed its standalone app, Bandsintown focuses on discovery (not logging), Last.fm tracks streaming not attendance. Gigvault is a modern app built specifically for concert logging with native iOS, native Android, and a polished web experience — all free.
Concert log vs concert diary vs setlist tracker
These three things sound similar but serve different jobs. A concert log is a structured list of shows (date, artist, venue). A concert diary adds emotional context: photos, ratings, notes about how the night felt. A setlist tracker focuses on which songs were played. Gigvault combines all three — you don't have to choose.

How do I log every concert I've been to?
Use Gigvault: search the artist, pick the date (often only one show matches), tap "I was there." Venue and setlist auto-fill. Each log takes about 30 seconds. Backfill old shows in batches by decade.
Is there a free app to log concerts?
Yes — the core concert log is free forever, with no ads; optional Pro ($2.99/month) adds extras like longer video uploads. Native apps on iOS and Android, full web at gigvault.app.
What's the best way to keep a concert log?
