How to Sell Early Bird Tickets for an Event

Updated today

You can offer early bird tickets in the Evey Events & Tickets (Evey) app by setting up a separate ticket type ahead of your main sale. This is useful if you want to offer discounted pricing, VIP access, or special gifts to early buyers.

Set Up Early Bird Tickets

To create an early bird ticket type:

  1. Go to your event’s “Event settings.”

  2. Click on the “Tickets” tab.

  3. Create a ticket type to represent the early bird ticket.

Make sure to set the available inventory to your early bird ticket limit so you don’t oversell and cut into the main ticket quantity.

Your storefront event page will now show only this early bird ticket type, and customers can purchase only the quantity you’ve made available.

Ending the early bird sale period

When the early bird period ends:

  1. Go back to “Event settings” and open the “Tickets” tab.

  2. Click “Edit” on the early bird ticket type.

  3. Click “Delete.”

Note: Deleting the early bird ticket type will not affect issued tickets or your event reports.

Launch the Main Sale

Once early bird sales are closed, you can create and publish your main ticket types for general purchase.
