## What matters for your events

What should a food festival look for in a ticketing platform?

Your visitors buy entry for one day or the whole weekend, often with extras such as tasting packs, masterclasses or parking, and many decide on the morning. You pay traders, power and site costs before the gates open, so you want a fee your visitors accept, your ticket money on time, checkout on your own website, a gate that sells as well as scans and a way to tell last year's visitors about this year.

1. You know what each ticket costs in fees, and who pays them.
2. You get paid in time to pay your traders and site costs.
3. Visitors buy on your own website, with extras in the same checkout.
4. Your gate team scans tickets and sells to walk-ups.
5. You can tell past visitors when tickets go on sale again.

## How we chose and ranked them

How did we choose and rank these platforms?

Ticket Fairy publishes this list and features its own platform first. You can run your whole festival on it, from ticket sales and extras to trader contracts, crew and the gates. Other platforms rank by how many of these five capabilities they include: fees, payouts, your event website or checkout on your site, door scanning and marketing tools. Ties are decided by fit for a food festival, where sales at the gate and money in time to pay traders matter most. Ticket Tailor, TicketSpice, SimpleTix, Eventbrite, Events.com, Skiddle, Humanitix and Billetto include all five. We describe every platform from its own published pages, and every fact links to its source, so you can check it before you choose.
