One API, three jobs
Discover, match, then capture
One /v1/events call finds events or resolves a marketplace URL to one unified event. The same mappings feed live inventory on /v1/capture.

The unified event
One event. Every marketplace.
Ticketmaster, StubHub, SeatGeek, TickPick, Vivid Seats, Gametime, GoTickets, and Paciolan can represent the same real-world show differently. Tickets.dev resolves them into one unified event automatically.

Overview
Ticket event matching API
Need to find the same ticket event across marketplaces? Send a Ticketmaster, StubHub, SeatGeek, Vivid Seats, or other supported marketplace URL to the Events API. Tickets.dev resolves it to one unified event and returns the matched marketplace event IDs and URLs.
Ticket event discovery API
A ticket event discovery API is the other half of the same call. Search a unified catalog of upcoming ticket events by performer, venue, date, name, marketplace URL, or native marketplace ID, one GET /v1/events does both discovery and matching.
The matching is already done. Duplicate listings of the same real-world show are grouped into one unified event, so you never build that layer yourself. The catalog is free with an API key. Prices and listing counts stay on the live capture API.
Structured JSON
What the ticket events API returns
Each event includes name, venue, date, performers, and a sources array of marketplace, native eventId, and URL. No prices, listing counts, or ticket counts.
Unified event
One catalog id per real-world event: name, performers, and the date in venue-local and UTC time.

The path to capture
From event discovery to live prices
Search or match to a unified event, take its marketplace URLs, and capture live listings. Event catalogs tell you what is on sale where. Capture tells you what it costs right now.
One unified event, every marketplace mapped
One catalog id already carries the native event id and event page URL on every marketplace currently indexed for the show, with no fuzzy matching or manual reconciliation on your side.
Look up from a URL you already have
Send a marketplace event link, a venue or performer page, a slug, or a native id and receive the rest of the mappings without scraping search.
Up-to-date catalog
The index of upcoming events and their marketplace URLs refreshes on a scheduled pass. Listings and prices stay live on /v1/capture.
Free with an API key
Catalog reads are never billed. The same key runs captures when you need inventory.

FAQ
Ticket events API questions
Is this a ticket event matching API?
Yes. Pass a marketplace event URL or native ID to GET /v1/events. The response is one unified event plus a sources array of every matched marketplace event ID and URL. The same endpoint is a ticket event discovery API: search by performer, venue, date, or name. Ticketmaster, StubHub, SeatGeek, TickPick, Vivid Seats, Gametime, GoTickets, and Paciolan are mapped today; Viagogo, ATG Tickets, ProVenue, and GoFevo are rolling out next.
Is the ticket events API free?
Yes. Catalog reads require an API key and are never billed. Live inventory and prices remain on the capture API and spend a credit when they succeed.
Does the events API return ticket prices?
No. It returns event metadata and marketplace links only. Prices, fees, quantities, and seat maps come from a capture.
How do I get from a Vivid Seats URL to the Ticketmaster page?
GET /v1/events?query= with the Vivid Seats link. The response includes a sources array with every catalog marketplace that carries the event. The catalog covers Ticketmaster, StubHub, SeatGeek, TickPick, Vivid Seats, Gametime, GoTickets, and Paciolan today, with Viagogo, ATG Tickets, ProVenue, and GoFevo rolling out next. A link from a marketplace still being added answers source_not_indexed, so you can tell "coming soon" apart from "no such event".
Can I search by venue or performer pages?
Yes, through the one ?query= parameter. It accepts a venue or performer listing URL, an event page URL, a slug, a name, or a marketplace-native id, and works out which it is. Event pages return that event; venue and performer pages return the upcoming dates.
How current is the catalog?
Upcoming events and their marketplace URLs refresh on a scheduled pass, on the order of hours, not on each request. Inventory is captured live.
Which marketplaces are mapped?
Ticketmaster, StubHub, SeatGeek, TickPick, Vivid Seats, Gametime, GoTickets, and Paciolan are mapped today. Viagogo, ATG Tickets, ProVenue, and GoFevo are being added next, and already work on the capture API, so the catalog is catching up to a set of marketplaces Tickets.dev supports in full. Until one lands, /v1/events answers source_not_indexed for it rather than an empty result.
