Tickets for South African events
Discovery Events Tickets is where people find and buy tickets, and where organisers sell them, get them into the door and get paid, all in one place.
For people going to events
Find and buy in minutesBrowse events, see prices and what is sold out, and check out as a guest or with an account. You pay securely through PayFast.
Tickets in your inboxYour tickets arrive by email straight after payment, each with its own QR code. They are also saved under My Tickets.
Pass a ticket to a friendSend a ticket to someone else. They get a new QR code and yours stops working, so a ticket cannot be used twice.
Fair resaleCannot make it? Resell your ticket on the platform. Organisers can cap the resale price, so tickets are not sold on at inflated prices.
Clear refund rulesEach event shows its refund policy before you pay, and you can ask for a refund from your order page when the policy allows it.
In your languageThe site is available in English, Afrikaans, isiZulu and isiXhosa.
For event organisers
A page for your eventUpload your poster, add the line-up and FAQs, and pick your colours. Share one link and sell straight from it.
Ticket types that fit your eventGeneral and VIP tickets, price phases that step up as tickets sell, bundles, table packages, promo codes and sales-rep links with commission.
Access zonesSet which tickets can enter which areas, such as VIP or backstage, and check it at the door.
Door scanning on any phoneGive each door a login that can only scan. Scanning keeps working with no signal, finds people by name, and flags a ticket that has already been used. A dedicated Android and iPhone door app is on the way.
Sales, guests and payoutsLive sales numbers, attendee lists, free and complimentary tickets, messages to ticket holders, and payout statements for each event.
Reach your audienceSend email campaigns to people who agreed to hear from you, with a working unsubscribe link on every message.
Connect your own systemsA partner API and webhooks let developers connect your sales to other tools.
Trusted organisersEvery organiser is reviewed before they can sell, so buyers know who they are buying from.
