Just like the rest of our industry, Evenbrite got rocked pretty hard by the pandemic. You can read up on it here if you need to catch up.

If you’re working in the event industry already, I assume you are well aware of Eventbrite’s position in the market. I’ll spare you the background details on how Eventbrite became so dominate. When there’s a sentiment change against Eventbrite, it’s noticeable.īecause this kept popping up, I decided to dive into our own data from the 23,800+ events we promoted over the past 3 years to see if there is a trend of event organizers (at least the ones we work with) moving away from Eventbrite. We even work with a few significantly sized event companies that use Eventbrite for ticketing. Meanwhile, Eventbrite essentially owns the small and medium sized events. Most large entertainment companies tend to use Ticketmaster and AXS for ticketing. It’s hard to ignore this trend of event organizers openly looking for alternatives to Eventbrite.

Most of our team organizes events personally too. We talk with hundreds of event organizers and promoters every month through our demos, current customers, and our friends in the industry.
