Client Terms & Conditions 2025

These terms are entered into by and between booking clients (a/the “Client”), and FORTE Talent Group (“Agency,” “we,” or “us”). The following terms and conditions, together with any documents and/or booking confirmations expressly incorporated by reference (collectively, “Terms and Conditions”), govern a Client’s booking conditions for any FORTE represented Talent (a/the “Talent”).

We may revise and update these Terms and Conditions from time to time in our sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when we post them, and apply to all booking conditions thereafter.
