Organisation Guides

How ticketing requirements differ for ticketing businesses, venue groups, theatres, stadiums, festivals, attractions, conferences and agencies.

Different organisations use the same ticketing building blocks in different ways. A theatre sells subscriptions and accessible seats, a stadium manages season tickets, an attraction manages timed entry, and a venue group needs consistency across very different buildings. These guides explain the workflows that matter to each type of organisation and link to the subject articles that explain the underlying technology.

How to use these guides

Start with your organisation type

Each guide describes the capabilities and workflows that type of organisation typically needs, and where its requirements differ.

Follow the links to the subject explanations

Guides point to the subject article that explains each concept in depth, such as reserved seating, allocations or customer data.

Treat the guides as starting points

Organisations of the same type differ in size, markets and operating model, so confirm requirements against your own workflows.

Compare across organisation types

Requirements overlap. Festivals and multi-venue groups, for example, both coordinate inventory and reporting across promoters and partners.
