Most ticketing platforms charge per-ticket fees and lock your data into their ecosystem. **Hi.Events is a modern, open-source alternative to Eventbrite, Tickettailor, Dice.fm, and other ticketing platforms** for organizers who want full control over branding, checkout, data, and infrastructure. Built for nightlife promoters, festival organizers, venues, community groups, and conference hosts. <br> <img alt="Hi.Events Dashboard" src="https://hievents-public.s3.us-west-1.amazonaws.com/website/github-screenshot.png"/> <br> ## Features <table> <tr> <td width="50%" valign="top"> ### 🎟️ Ticketing & Sales - Flexible ticket types (free, paid, donation, tiered) - Hidden and locked tickets behind promo codes - Promo codes and pre-sale access - Product add-ons (merch, upgrades, extras) - Product categories for organization - Full tax and fee support (VAT, service fees) - Capacity management and shared limits </td> <td width="50%" valign="top"> ### 🎨 Branding & Customization - Beautiful, conversion-optimized checkout - Customizable PDF ticket designs - Branded organizer homepage - Drag-and-drop event page builder - Embeddable ticket widget - SEO tools (meta tags, Open Graph) </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="50%" valign="top"> ### 👥 Attendee Management - Custom checkout questions - Advanced search, filtering, and export (CSV/XLSX) - Full and partial refunds - Bulk messaging by ticket type - QR code check-in with scan logs - Access-controlled check-in lists </td> <td width="50%" valign="top"> ### 📊 Analytics & Growth - Real-time sales dashboard - Affiliate and referral tracking - Advanced reporting (sales, tax, promos) - Webhooks (Zapier, Make, CRMs) </td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" valign="top"> ### ⚙️ Operations Multi-user roles and permissions · Stripe Connect instant payouts · Offline payment methods · Offline event support · Automatic invoicing · Event archive · Multi-language support · Full REST API </td> </tr> </table> <br> ## Compare | Feature | Hi.Events | Eventbrite | Tickettailor | Dice | |:---------------------------------|:----------|:-----------|:-------------|:--------| | Self-hosted option | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | | Open source | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | | No per-ticket fees (self-hosted) | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | | Full custom branding | ✅ | Limited | ✅ | Limited | | Affiliate tracking | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | | API access | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | Limited | | Own your data | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | ❌ | <br> ## Quick Start ### One-Click Deploy [](https://github.com/HiEventsDev/hi.events-digitalocean) [](https://github.com/HiEventsDev/hi.events-render.com) [](https://railway.app/template/8CGKmu?referralCode=KvSr11) [](https://zeabur.com/templates/8DIRY6) ### Docker ```bash git clone [email protected]:HiEventsDev/hi.events.git cd hi.events/docker/all-in-one # Generate keys (Linux/macOS) echo "APP_KEY=base64:$(openssl rand -base64 32)" >> .env echo "JWT_SECRET=$(openssl rand -base64 32)" >> .env docker compose up -d ``` > [!TIP] > **Windows users:** See `./docker/all-in-one/README.md` for key generation instructions.
