EVENTS

Shows, Fairs, Festivals

Future Ticketing makes selling tickets for agricultural shows, fairs, festivals, and air shows easier and more efficient—both in advance and on event days. Our platform addresses common challenges faced by outdoor events, including managing large amounts of cash on-site, wristband ticketing, exhibitors, camping, long queues, and protecting against the economic effects of bad weather. With our fast, smooth scanning technology, entry at your event’s gates is streamlined, reducing wait times and speeding up access. Encourage earlybird sales by setting up tickets in advance to attract “digital customers” and boost online sales. By promoting and selling tickets early, you can reduce cash-handling on event day and secure immediate revenue from ticket sales. Our intuitive “Copy and Paste” event feature lets you easily schedule tickets for next year’s events in just minutes.

What our customers say

“Our events are quite complex in that they run over multiple days, however the customer journey is easy to use and purchase tickets or our customers which is the most important thing for us as a company. Year on year we have seen our attendances grow along with our purchase rate online.”

Jane Sterck, Director of The Garden Shows

What our customers say

“We had been looking for a box office service that could cater for both an efficient online service and allow us to continue with telephone sales as we attract an audience of a wide age range, some of whom rely on being able to order tickets by phone. After our move to Future Ticketing, many clients commented on the ease of ticket purchase and we appreciated the customer support and the day to day cash flow and sales information available through the system.”

Daphne Parlour, Box Office Manager

What our customers say

“Working with Future Ticketing has brought enormous benefits to The Balmoral Show. The Future Ticketing system ensures a smooth entry for our customers on show day, the system tackles the issues we had previously such as hosting a large volume of cash on-site, long purchase queues, access control and how best to insulate from the economic impact of bad weather.”

Transforming outdoor shows

Future Ticketing is a leading software provider for outdoor shows, trusted by over 200 events globally, including major agricultural shows, air shows, and festivals.

Our platform offers transparency with features like volunteer permission policies, scanning reports for health and safety teams, and early access to revenue.

Our clients benefit from increased sales and streamlined operations. For example, one agricultural show saw a 33% increase in online sales in its first year with us. Another transitioned to online-only sales due to the ease for customers, while using customer data to optimise event planning. Future Ticketing helps simplify the shift from physical to digital ticketing, offering e-tickets, mobile wallet integration while also catering for the in-person experience and post event reconciliation
