Food and drink
Food and drink event tickets, sitting by sitting
byTicks sells tickets for tastings, dinners and food festivals. Each sitting or tier is its own ticket with its own stock, tables can have a fixed price and add-ons go in the same order.
Dinners and sittings
Every sitting is its own ticket
Make one ticket per sitting and set how many places it has. When the first sitting is full it shows Sold Out and guests take the next one. Places are held from cart to payment, so you never seat 25 at a table for 24.
- Valid from and Valid until set when each sitting gets in at the door
- An activation rule can open the late sitting when the first sells out
- The ticket description holds the menu of that sitting
Tastings and festivals
Tastings sell in tiers, each with its own stock
Sell a small flight, a bigger one and the full tasting as separate tickets, each with its own price and number. Ticket options add sold bars and badges, so guests see what is running out.
- Early Bird sold out? The next tier opens by itself
- A food festival gets a tab per day and one for extras
Seated dinners
Guests can book a whole table at a fixed price
Draw your room as a seating plan with round or rectangular tables. Give a table a fixed price and guests book it whole, or sell it per seat.
- Text and markers on the map show the kitchen, the bar and the WC
- One venue can hold a plan for the tasting and one for the dinner
Add-ons
Add-ons go in the same order as the ticket
Wine pairing, a cheese board, parking: put them under a heading such as Add-ons, next to your tickets. Guests pay once, and every item has its own QR code, so your team can scan it when they serve it.
- A price and a stock per add-on
- On a Multi-Shop Event, extras get their own tab, with photos
