Comedy shows

Comedy ticketing, from the back room to the big tour.

25p a ticket, flat. Guest lists, door scanning, and a direct line to the regulars who fill the room every month.

The club

Every comedy night, the same bits.

Run a comedy night for a while and it's the same few gremlins every time.

The booking fee costs your crowd more than their first drink, and they notice it before the compere's even on.
The guest list is scattered between the promoter, the acts, their plus-ones, and a few DMs you half-remember agreeing to.
You've built a monthly night with loyal regulars, and no clean way to tell them the next one's on sale.

Sound familiar? Every one of these has a fix. Here's the kit.

Comedy ticketing FAQs

From the green room.

How much does comedy show ticketing cost?

25p per ticket, flat, including VAT. Absorb it, pass it on, or set a custom fee. That's the self-serve rate. If you'd rather we ran it for you, Managed is a custom quote.

Can I run a guest list for the acts?

Yes. Comps for the acts, their plus-ones and the promoter, all in one place. On Pro, categories with caps so no single list runs away with itself.

What do fans pay in booking fees?

Your call. Absorb the 25p and they pay face value, or pass it on and they pay 25p. Either way it's the lowest published standard fee of any UK ticketing platform.

Can I tell people who came to the last show about the next one?

Yes. Tickets live in the customer app, and push notifications reach your past audience directly. No ad spend.

Can I set up a run of tour dates?

Yes. On Pro, duplicate an existing show to spin up the next date fast, each with its own on-sale and capacity.

Can we do reserved seating?

Yes. Pick-your-seat maps are built in on Pro: buyers choose their exact seat on a plan of your room. Bespoke layouts are part of Managed.

When do I get paid?

As you sell, directly into your own Stripe account. We never hold your funds.

Ready when
you are.

Three minutes to set up. Five minutes to your first ticket on sale. No card required to start. No contract to sign. If we're not the right fit, close the tab and we'll never know.
