Seasonal events
Seasonal event tickets that come back every year
byTicks is ticketing for events that return every year, such as Christmas, New Year, carnival and King's Day. Duplicate last year's event, build your list early and email last year's buyers first.
Same event, new year
Next year starts from this year's event
Duplicate Event makes a new draft with your tickets, prices, ticket designs, seating plan and page look. You pick the new name, link and dates. Nothing goes on sale until you switch the tickets on and publish.
- Email texts and notification rules can come along too
- Time zone, currency and languages stay as they were
Months before the sale
Build your list before anyone can buy
Switch on the interest list and your page collects sign-ups until the sale opens. With Notify at sale start, everyone on the list gets an email when tickets go on sale.
- Pre-registration lets you write the announcement yourself
- Extra questions: which evening, how many tickets
- Sign-ups can tick a box for WhatsApp and SMS
A short sale
A short sale with a countdown on your page
Seasonal sales are short, so set a Sale Start and a Sale End. Before the sale your page shows a live countdown, then it switches to the tickets by itself, in the event's time zone.
- Choose Countdown, Date only or Hide
- Price tiers can open the next one by themselves
- A Countdown block puts the days to go in your email
Last year's buyers
Email last year's buyers first
In Marketing, choose Ticket buyers and pick last year's event. Send them a portal link with early access, so they can buy before the public sale.
- Send now, or schedule it for the moment you choose
- Add a discount code for people who came last year
- Other visitors keep seeing the normal countdown
