What is Parties?

SeatGeek Parties lets you share access to your tickets with friends or family without sending each ticket individually. As a Party Host, you can invite Guests to join your Party using a Party invite link, allowing them to access shared tickets and enter the event without everyone needing to arrive together.

Note:

SeatGeek Parties is not available on every ticket, so check your tickets for more information. A Party invite link is not a ticket transfer.

How SeatGeek Parties works

One person - the Party Host - purchases the tickets for their party and invites their Party Guests with a shared link (URL). That one link will give each Guest access to their own ticket.

The Party Host taps "Share Tickets" to start a Party
The Host selects the number of ticket's they'd like to share with guests and then taps "Share invite link."
The Host will be given their choice of how to share the Party link with Guests.

Do I need a SeatGeek account to join a Party?

Yes - you will need to have a SeatGeek account in order to claim a ticket to a party. We recommend downloading the SeatGeek app on your mobile device, but you can also claim and access a ticket using the SeatGeek mobile website.

In order to accept your tickets through a party, your account will need to your first and last name saved. This can be done in your account under "Personal Info"

What if one of my guests can't go to the event?

As the Party Host, you will have the ability to remove Guests from the invite if they can't attend or if plans change. Doing so will revert their ticket back to your SeatGeek account so you can sell the ticket, use it yourself, or invite another Guest! If everyone's plans change, you can cancel the party completely - at which point all tickets will be returned to your SeatGeek account. You as the Host can also manage the number of tickets your reserve for yourself and your guests at any point. That way, if you and a Party Guest arrive together, you can display both tickets from your account for quick entry.

Simply tap "Manage" to see your options:

What if we want to add a guest to our party?

As long as you have tickets still available, you can use your Party link (URL) to invite whoever you want! Following that link will allow your Guests to claim an available ticket in your Party. You as the host can also adjust the number of tickets reserved for yourself and your guests by tapping "Manage."

Can I sell tickets that are in the Party?

If you are the Party Host, then yes! You can sell any tickets in the party. If the tickets you sell are already claimed by a Guest in your party, that Guest will receive a notification to claim a new ticket (if there are any still available). Please note that all sales are irreversible and SeatGeek is unable to cancel any sale once it is made. Check out this article for step-by-step instructions on how to sell your tickets!

Guests cannot sell tickets from a Party.

What happens if my Party Host sells my ticket?

If your Party Host sells your ticket, you will receive a push notification and a chance to accept a new ticket if any are still available. Otherwise, you'll see a message letting you know that the host has recalled the tickets.
