TryBooking is a community-orientated ticketing platform that does more than just ticketing. You can use our system for various functions, like registrations, merchandise, taking donations and running a box office.
Whether you are wanting to create tabled seated dinners or more standard seated events, we have you covered.
As part of our commitment to giving back, our platform is free to use for free events. So, if you’re hosting a free event for your community to give back or raise awareness for a cause, we provide full access to our event ticketing platform at absolutely no cost.
In this blog, we’ll discuss TryBooking's features and how they make music venue ticketing easy for you.
Powerful Features Perfect For Your Music Venue or Event
Lowest Fees in Industry
Our mission is to build great features and provide excellent customer service while keeping pricing as low as possible for you and your attendees. With TryBooking, music venues and band organisers enjoy a low 2.5% processing fee (*including credit card fees) with only 50c per ticket for ticket buyers. Plus, we only charge fees when you process a paid transaction and there is no minimum spend.

Custom Event Page Branding
Custom brand your music event page and confirmations with your logos and sponsors. Use our standard ticket format or adjust. Create interactive seating plans or detailed registration forms to suit your needs.

Multiple Ticket and Session Options
Add multiple ticket options, early birds, promotions, merchandise, gift certificates and ask for donations. Multiple Sessions can easily be added to new and existing events, while creating ad editing, all from one single page.

Customise How Your Ticket Buyers’ Book
Change the way your audience views your music event sessions. Showcase multiple session times for gigs, concerts or other music events in a more accessible way for your audience to find the exact date & time that suits them. No longer lose ticket buyers because they're tired of scrolling to find an available session, now it's all right there, on one screen!

Seating Plans
Create interactive seating plans to suit any venue. Perfect for music events at seated venues for concerts or music gigs. Best used as interactive seating plans for venues where the seats are static in one location and are already numbered.

Scanning App
Speed up entry to your music event with our great mobile scanning app which scans QR codes on tickets as well as manual check-ins via your door lists - at no additional cost!

Online Events
Is your event running online without a physical address? TryBooking gives you the ability to sell tickets to your online events, allowing you to input the link to your event and share it with attendees on your event homepage and through emails.

Reporting
With an extended range of reports, covering events, attendees, marketing and accounting data, analysing your events and/or fundraising pages allows you to make the right decisions to create successful events.
