About Eventbrite
What is Eventbrite?
Eventbrite is a global event management and ticketing platform that helps organizers create, promote, and sell tickets for events of all sizes. Attendees use it to discover and register for local activities like music festivals, business conferences, food & drink tastings, and more.
What problem does it solve?
Eventbrite solves the complexity of event organization: from ticketing and secure payment processing to promotion and attendee engagement. It replaces manual systems, provides a discoverable marketplace, and automates reminders and check-ins.
Who is it for?
Ideal for event organizers—from small hobby groups and nonprofits to large-scale event producers. It’s best for those who want a built-in audience (80M+ monthly users) and simple pricing without monthly subscription fees for free events. It is not a dedicated CRM or email-only platform; for advanced marketing automation, consider specialized tools.
Real use cases
Indie musicians sell tickets to their album release show. Food bloggers host a pop-up dinner with add-on wine pairings. Companies run networking happy hours using promo codes. Festival organizers sell multilevel passes and track attendance with the mobile check-in app.
