Is it possible to create discount codes for student groups or early ticket buyers?

Yes, our platform lets you create a variety of promo codes. You can offer public discounts for early birds or create private, coded discounts for specific groups like schools, theater clubs, or corporate partners.

How do I handle ticket sales at the box office on the day of the show?

The Eventbrite Organizer app allows you to sell tickets on-site. Using our Tap to Pay feature, you can securely accept credit card and mobile payments right at your venue, with all sales syncing instantly with your online reports.

What are the fees for using this musical event platform?
