Testimonials

"In our most recent full-scale musical production, we placed our full trust in the services of TryBooking. What would normally have taken many painstaking hours of selling and issuing tickets, was handled with ease thanks to the professional and efficient ticket purchasing site that TryBooking offers. The staff at TryBooking were always readily available and helpful in assisting us to set up our event, and once the tickets went online, all we had to do was sit back and watch all 4 shows sell out in record time! Our patrons loved the accessibility of the website, especially the opportunity to select their own seats and print their own tickets. We will continue to use TryBooking for all future events; they come with my strongest recommendation!"

Steve Marshall
Theatre Manager
Prendiville Performing Arts Centre

"Our community really warmed to the experience of using an online booking system for this year's production. Not only could patrons choose their own seats, but the administration of the TryBooking system was simple, saved so much time and was cost effective. This was evidenced in the record sales achieved for the two week season of performances with over 90% of possible seats sold."

Michael Phillips
Principal
Ringwood Secondary College

"Trybooking was recommended by a friend and I was thrilled with the program itself. I used the service for a charity fundraiser. To set up the fundraising account itself was extremely easy and I loved the idea that our guests were able to receive their tickets instantly upon providing their email address. The program features were fantastic. During the 'set up stage' I was able to include a 'dietary requirement' feature where guests were able to include special dietary requirements. At a glance I was able to check how many event tickets were sold, revenue to date and list the names of all registered guests. Additionally, as the guests included their email addresses I was able to update them prior to the event with 'the event calender' raffle and auction prizes for the event. I loved the fact that I did not have to work out how many had paid and who had not....Overall a very effective ticketing service."

Jo-Anne Bates
Standing Ovation Event Management

"We have sold more tickets that any other concert. Previously we sold tickets manually on a specific day and then had no more sales until the show. Due to the ease of the system and that it is accessible all the time, people are sharing the how to book and just going to the website to book more seats. All the feedback has been positive and it's taken a lot of workload off us."

Kylie Drew
