Why most "free" ticketing platforms aren't actually free
When you search for free event ticketing, you'll find platforms that call themselves free but charge 3–10% per ticket in service fees, platform fees, or payment processing fees. These costs add up fast.
The hidden cost of "free" platforms
A 1,000-ticket event at £25 per ticket could cost you £750–£2,500 in hidden fees on platforms like Eventbrite or Skiddle. On TicketLocation, that same event costs you £0 — and you'd actually earn an extra £1,250 in profit share.
TicketLocation works differently. We charge zero fees to event organisers. A small service fee (12% + £0.40) is charged to the ticket buyer, not you. And you can choose to absorb this fee if you prefer a clean ticket price for your attendees.

Who uses TicketLocation?
Event organisers across the UK use TicketLocation for club nights, concerts, festivals, university events, community gatherings, theatre shows, workshops, and conferences. Whether you're running a 50-person workshop or a 5,000-capacity festival, the platform scales with you — and you never pay a penny.
How the 5% profit share works
For every ticket sold on your event, TicketLocation pays you an extra 5% on top of the ticket price.
Real example
Sell a £20 ticket? You get £20 + £1 = £21. Sell 1,000 tickets at £30? That's £30,000 in ticket revenue plus £1,500 in profit share. There's no cap — the more you sell, the more you earn.
This isn't a promotional offer. It's how TicketLocation works. We share our revenue with the organisers who make the platform valuable.
