How to create your first event
A step-by-step guide to creating, setting up and publishing your first event on Ticket Brew.
You can go from idea to a live, shareable event page in a few minutes.
1. Start creating
Go to ticketbrew.co.za/create and work through the event steps: your event name, date and time, venue, artwork and tickets.
2. Sign in
If you're not signed in yet, you'll be asked to sign in with a one-time code sent to your email (or with Google). No password needed.
3. Choose your organiser profile
Pick the profile the event should be saved under, or create a new one. Your profile is your public organiser page where all your events are listed, so use your brand or business name.
4. Add your payout details
Add the South African bank account you'd like to be paid into. You can start selling before your account is verified, but payouts are only sent once it is. See Adding your payout bank account.
5. Review your event
Check your event details, ticket prices and fee settings. You can choose whether buyers pay the service fee, you absorb it, or you split it — see How ticket fees work.
6. Publish
Publish your event to go live. You'll get a shareable event link to post on Instagram, WhatsApp groups, your bio and anywhere else your audience is.
