Platformeventbrite.comSelf-service ticketing in many countries; owned by Bending Spoons since 2026Reviewed October 2026
Visit site

Eventbrite lets organisers publish events and sell tickets themselves. Free events can be published at no cost; paid tickets carry a per-ticket service fee and a payment processing fee, and a Pro subscription adds email marketing. Bending Spoons agreed to buy Eventbrite in December 2025 and reports completing the acquisition on 10 March 2026.

Where it shines

  • Free events have no ticketing fees for organisers or attendees.
  • Publishes its ticket fees.
  • Documents a public API with webhooks.

Check before signing

  • Ownership changed in 2026 (Bending Spoons); check current terms and plans.
  • Fees vary by country; the figures above are from the US pricing page.
