How to sell early bird tickets for an event

Whether you want to offer a lower price on pre-sale tickets, higher priced but VIP access, or include a gift for attendees that purchase early, we've got you covered.

Setting up your early bird tickets

Early bird tickets can be sold with Evey by setting up your event before you're ready for the main sale; you'd set it up with just the early bird ticket type. Head on over to your Event Settings -> Tickets and create a ticket type to represent the early bird ticket:

Make sure to set the available inventory to your limit for early bird tickets, so you don't oversell and dip into the main-sale capacity.

On your storefront event page, your customers will now be able to purchase only this ticket type and only the amount you set for the available inventory.

Ending the early bird sale period

When your early bird sale period is over, you'll want to ensure the ticket type isn't available for sale. Go back to Event Settings -> Tickets hit the Edit button on the early bird ticket type, and then hit the delete button. Don't worry; deleting the ticket type will not adversely affect tickets already issued with that ticket type or the events' reports.

When you're ready for your main sale, add your ticket types for purchase and publish the product.
