pretix is an open-source ticket sales and event management application built with Python and Django, providing a customizable online ticket shop, payment handling, check-in, and box office tools. It is used by thousands of events and can be self-hosted or used via the vendor's hosted offerings.

Use cases

  • sell tickets online for a conference
  • set up a self-hosted ticketing shop for a festival
  • manage event check-in and badge scanning
  • run a box office point of sale at an event
  • handle payments and quotas for ticket presales
  • create a multilingual ticket shop for a museum or exhibition
  • track ticket sales and generate event reports

When to choose

  • you need a full-featured, self-hosted ticketing system you control
  • you run conferences, festivals, concerts, or workshops and need shop, payment, and check-in in one tool
  • you want GDPR-compliant, accessible ticketing software
  • you need flexible product structures, quotas, and multiple payment providers
  • you want to extend ticketing via a plugin system

When to avoid

  • you only need a simple payment link or donation button rather than full ticketing
  • you want a zero-maintenance SaaS without running your own server (though hosted pretix exists)
  • you plan to offer pretix itself as a ticketing service to third parties, which the AGPL additional terms restrict
  • your event needs are trivial and a lightweight form-based registration would suffice
