Print venue directions and entry details on your tickets Checkout and orders # Print venue directions and entry details on your tickets Venues, festivals and club promoters get the same questions at the door every night: where is the entrance, when do doors open, what ID do I need. When the answers are on the ticket itself, every buyer brings them to the venue. You set the text once for the event and can give a camping, VIP or parking ticket words of its own. Takes: 4 minutes [Watch the video: Print venue directions and entry details on your tickets](https://d3lcdr963b5ubl.cloudfront.net/uploads/guides/video/print-venue-directions-and-entry-details-on-your-tickets/463f6c2c1b8b7bb4f91de472e3d8e4f61d697a1eddd54dda74b8ca2761e1eac9/12f3767dd6253ae5/guide.mp4) · [English](https://www.ticketfairy.com/resources/captions/guides/guide-print-venue-directions-and-entry-details-on-your-tickets-12f3767dd625.vtt) ***Watch how it's done** 2 min 27 s, with captions.* - [Open the ticket settings](#step-1) - [Enter the text for your tickets](#step-2) - [Save the ticket settings](#step-3) - [Tickets already sent](#step-4) - [Download a ticket to check it](#step-5) ## Before you start - You're the owner or an admin on the event. If you can't open **Tickets**, ask the owner to change your role. - You have the words ready: directions, the entrance, door times, ID and anything buyers should bring. 1. ## Open the ticket settings [Play from here](#guide-video) Open your event, select **Tickets**, then the **Settings** tab. The text box is at the foot of the **Ticket Settings** card. ![Ticket Settings card with directions and door times in the additional ticket PDF text box, above Save Ticket Settings](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-tickets--event-ticket-pdf-text.png) *Event, Tickets, Settings, Ticket Settings.* 2. ## Enter the text for your tickets [Play from here](#guide-video) Enter your directions and entry details in **Additional text to display on ticket PDF (such as venue directions)**. You can add bold text, headings and links with the toolbar. **Tip:** Keep it to what buyers need at the door, such as the entrance, door times, ID and what to bring, because the text prints on every ticket. 3. ## Save the ticket settings [Play from here](#guide-video) Select **Save Ticket Settings**. Every ticket PDF for this event now shows your text. **Note:** Tickets from **Download for Ticket Printer** print without it. ## Tickets already sent [Play from here](#guide-video) Ticket Fairy makes a ticket PDF from your current text each time a buyer or your team downloads it, so a download after you save shows the new words. A PDF already delivered in an email keeps the words it was sent with. 4. ## Download a ticket to check it [Play from here](#guide-video) Open **Orders**, open an order and select the download button beside a ticket's code. The ticket PDF downloads with your text on it. ![Order window with two tickets, each with its code and a download button beside it](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-orders--order-details.png) *Event, Orders, order.* ## Or have it done for you Fai, your AI teammate, can check sales, update your event or change a ticket when you ask. Fai can set the words printed on every ticket for your event, or on one ticket type's tickets, and hide the date on a ticket type. She shows you the change and asks you to approve it before saving. MCP has no tool for ticket text. ### In your dashboard, with Fai ``` On , print this on every ticket PDF: . Show me the text before you save it ``` ## From your terminal Install the CLI from [our CLI page](https://www.ticketfairy.com/cli), sign in with `ticketfairy auth login`, and choose the brand you are working on with `ticketfairy brand use `. `ticketfairy brand list` and `ticketfairy event list` show the IDs the other commands use. Use the same login with the command line that you use in the dashboard, as the owner or an admin on the event. The event's ticket text is the ticketText attribute, sent in the body of an event update; it takes the same HTML the text box saves. ### Sets the text printed on every ticket PDF for the event, replacing the event's current ticket text ``` ticketfairy event update --body '{"ticketText":""}' ``` ## Give one ticket type its own text [Play from here](#guide-video) 1. ### Open the ticket type Open **Tickets**, then select **Edit** on the ticket type under **Ticket Types**. 2. ### Enter the ticket type's text and save Enter the words in **Additional text to display on ticket PDF**, then select **Save**. **Note:** This text replaces the event's text on that ticket type's tickets rather than adding to it, so repeat anything from the event text that those buyers still need. ![Ticket type form with camping wristband collection text for the ticket PDF and Hide the date on this ticket type turned on](https://www.ticketfairy.com/embeds/posters/marketing-tickets--ticket-type-pdf-text.png) *Event, Tickets, ticket type, Edit.* Fai can set one ticket type's text for you once you approve it. She asks before saving the change. ### In your dashboard, with Fai ``` On , print this on the tickets only: ``` ## Hide the date on one ticket type's tickets [Play from here](#guide-video) On the same ticket type form, turn on **Hide the date on this ticket type**, then select **Save**. Its tickets then print without the event date, which suits a ticket that covers several dates. Fai can hide the date on one ticket type's tickets once you approve it. ### In your dashboard, with Fai ``` On , hide the date on the ticket PDFs ``` ## Questions you might have **Can I set the ticket text while I create the event?** Yes. In the event setup, **Advanced options** has **Additional text on ticket PDF**, and it saves to the same text box you change later under **Ticket Settings**. **I set text for the event and for a ticket type. Which one prints?** The ticket type's own text. A ticket type with text of its own prints only that, and every other ticket type prints the event's text. **Does the text appear on the event page?** No. It prints on the ticket PDF that buyers download or receive. Use the ticket type's **Description** for words buyers should read before they choose a ticket. **How do I remove the text?** Clear the text box and save again. Tickets made after that have no extra text, or the event's text where you cleared a ticket type's own words. **Can I change the design of the ticket, such as its colors or logo?** Yes. Design your own ticket with your logo, colors, fonts, artwork and sponsor logos, and choose which events and ticket types use it.
