Pay artist, venue and production deposits up front

Artist and venue deposits are due months before your ticket money arrives. The headliner's agent wants a deposit now, and the venue wants one to hold your date. Production companies will not hold kit without a commitment. With Ticket Fairy Capital, you book the talent and pay those costs before your ticket revenue starts to arrive. Use it for artist deposits, booking fees and venue deposits. It also covers stages, sound and lighting, and the marketing that starts your on-sale early.

  • Artist deposits: secure the acts that sell your event
  • Venue deposits: hold the date and the room you want
  • Marketing budget: promote your event before sales peak

Apply with your sales history from any ticketing platform

Your track record counts wherever you sold your tickets. Bring your ticket sales history from Ticket Fairy or another platform. A funding partner looks at that history, your event track record and your projected sales. You do not need to sell tickets with Ticket Fairy to apply. You can apply for funding and move your ticketing at the same time.
