Sound familiar?
- Bookings by message and names written on a sheet to take to the door.
- At free nights half the people who booked don't show up, and those who wanted to come are left out.
- Cash at the door to count at the end of the night.
- Every new date means starting all over again.
From idea to opening night, in four steps
Create your night
Photos, poster, date, places and price: your show's page is ready in a few minutes, with your logo and your colours. It's your shop window, not ours.
Set up the tickets
Free or paid, full price and concessions, each with its own places. Want to choose who gets on stage at the open mic? You approve each sign-up.
Fill the room
Share the link on social media, in your newsletter or on your website, and see which channel your audience comes from. And get help selling out: your most loyal regulars become your ambassadors and bring new people with their Ambassador code.
Get paid and welcome them
Your audience pays online, securely, and the money goes to your account. If someone drops out, the place goes to whoever was waiting. At the door, a phone is all you need.
