Dance ticketing, done for you.
Families pick their own seats in your real auditorium. A ticketing specialist draws the chart and sets up every performance, and the studio never pays a thing.
What everyone sees
You see sales, check-ins, and the money for every recital.
Recital weekend, handled.
Before tickets go on sale
- Your auditorium, drawn for you
Send a photo or the venue's diagram. We build the chart, free.
- Every performance in one place
Saturday matinee, Saturday night, Sunday. One show, a chart for each.
- A presale for your families
Send your families the presale link. Only they can buy early, then sales open to everyone on the date you pick.
While families buy
- Ticket limits
Cap how many tickets each buyer can get, so every family gets seats.
- Tickets in the phone's wallet
Apple and Google Wallet, so nobody hunts through email in the lobby.
- Email everyone who bought
Call times, parking, a schedule change. One announcement reaches every family.
Recital day
- Scan at the door
Volunteers scan tickets in with their own phones.
- Sell walk-ups
Card or cash at the door, from the same seating chart. We can send card readers.
- Get paid
Direct deposit as tickets sell, or a check after the show.
One of the best business decisions we have ever made.
Our experience with Hometown Tickets was phenomenal. It was one of the best business decisions we have ever made. The team is exceptional and provides a service that saves event organizers an incredible amount of time and money.
Our dance recital ticketing was flawless, and our customers appreciated the ease of the ticket purchasing process, as well as the transparency of pricing. The additional tools available to event organizers on the back end were a game-changer. We loved everything about our experience and will never go back to our old way of ticketing!

Your ticketing specialist
Every organization on Hometown Tickets has a named ticketing specialist who sets up your events, draws your seating charts, and answers the phone. It's how we've always done it, and it's included for everyone.
- 01
Your dates, your prices, and a photo or diagram of the room. An email is enough.
- 02
Your specialist draws the seating chart, sets up every performance, and puts your presale on a schedule. You look it over and say go.
- 03
The box office app, the scanner, and payouts come with it. When you call, the same person picks up.
What studios ask us.
How much does it cost the studio?
Nothing. Studios pay no setup, monthly, or per-event fees, and every feature is included. Ticket buyers pay a small service fee at checkout, which you can show as a line item or fold into the ticket price.
Can you build our seating chart?
Yes. Send a photo, a PDF from the venue, or a rough sketch and your ticketing specialist draws it for you at no charge.
Can our families buy before the public?
Yes. Every show comes with a presale link you can send to your families if you'd like. Only the people who get the link can buy early, and sales open to everyone on the date and time you choose.
We have several shows in one weekend. Is that one event?
Yes. Each performance has its own seats and can have its own prices, and families choose the performance when they buy.
How do we get paid?
Direct deposit as ticket money comes in, or a check after the show. You pick.
