Fireworks night ticketing that survives the 6pm rush.
One evening, one gate, two thousand people in forty minutes. Capacity caps, entry windows and offline scanning. 25p a ticket, flat.
The 6pm rush
One night. No second chances.
One night a year, and the same risks turn up every time.
Everyone arrives in the same forty minutes, in the dark, in a field, holding phones with dead screens.
Capacity is a licensing condition, not a suggestion. Cash on the gate makes it a guess.
It's the club's biggest fundraiser of the year, run entirely by volunteers who'd rather be watching the fireworks.
Every one of them has an answer. Here's what handles the rush.

The fee

Flat, including VAT. The lowest published standard fee of any UK ticketing platform. No contracts, no monthly fees, no credit packs. You see the maths before you list a single ticket.
Running it for charity? Same 25p, and free events are free, up to 500 tickets per event.
Run the numbers →A
Absorb it.
Take the 25p out of every ticket. Buyer pays face value, full stop.

Buyer-side fees to cover the 25p, Stripe processing and anything else you want to bake in.

Cheaper than the cheap ones.
Better than the good ones.
Best platform. The lowest published standard fee of any UK ticketing platform. We know how it sounds.

Before the big night.
How much does fireworks display ticketing cost?
25p per ticket, flat, including VAT. Absorb it, pass it on, or set a custom fee. Free events are free, up to 500 tickets per event, 2,500 a year. That's the self-serve rate. If you'd rather we ran it for you, Managed is a custom quote.
How do we stop overselling capacity?
Hard caps on the event and every ticket type. The system stops selling when you're full.
Can we stagger arrival times?
Yes. Entry windows control when tickets can scan in.
Can people still pay on the gate?
Yes, issue tickets manually on the day from any device. Advance sales keep the queue short, though.
What if the display is cancelled for weather?
Refunds are your call: full, partial, or refund while keeping tickets valid for a rearranged date.
When does the club get the money?
As you sell, directly into your own Stripe account. We never hold your funds.
More event types
Running something else too?
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.
