A full house at a community venue

Venue Family

Everything a venue runs on, in one place.

Bookings, events, tickets, staff and volunteer shifts, and the door — one system, built for the people who run venues and put on events.

Who it is for

Venues

Rent out your spaces, run a season of events, staff every night and sell the tickets — without five tools that never agree.

Producers and teachers

No venue of your own? Start on the free plan: publish your events, sell tickets with the money paid to your own Stripe account, and check people in at the door.

Audiences and renters

Find something on tonight, buy a ticket, or find a room for your rehearsal, class or celebration.

The four things you are juggling

A room to rent, a crew to find, tickets to sell and a door to run. Here is how each one works, with a small demo of each to try.

Spaces and rentals

Rent a room without chasing paperwork

Price each room by the hour with a day rate as the ceiling, and send the agreement with the quote. Renters sign on screen and pay their deposit straight to your Stripe account.

  • Rates per room, with discounts you set worked out on the quote
  • Agreements signed on screen, with the Signatures & Waivers add-on at $25/month: no charge per signature

Staff and volunteers

Fill the roster without the group chat

Say what a night needs, let people offer their availability, and fill the gaps without a spreadsheet. Your crew claims shifts from their phones, and a manager gets an email when a claim needs their yes.

  • Staffing needs set once for the venue and applied to every date
  • Invitations and assignments sent by email
  • Tonight's roster is who can open the door console

Sell tickets from your own website

Sliding scale, promo codes, passes for a whole run and reserved seats. Buyers pay through Stripe, the money goes to your Stripe account, and our fee is printed up front: 1–3% per ticket, and nothing on pay-what-you-can.

  • Ticket types per date, with sliding scale and promo codes
  • Checkout that sits on your own website
  • Guarantees, splits and house costs worked out before the show

Run the door from a phone

Scan tickets, find people by name, check members in with a tap and sell at the door. By the time the curtain goes up, the counts are already done.

  • Ticket scanning and name search in any web browser
  • Walk-up sales by card or cash, checked in as they pay
  • Live counts of who is in, who is still coming and what the door took

We are young, and we say so

Venue Family is a small team, building alongside a working community venue. What our venues ask for is what gets built first.

Extras are named honestly too: the add-ons page says which ones you can buy today and which ones are still being built. See the add-ons

People gathered at our founding partner venue

Add-ons you can buy today

Each one adds to any plan. Prices are per month.

Custom organization branding

$5/month

Your logo and brand color on every email we send for you and every page we host for you: receipts, ticket checkout, embeds and dashboards.

Ticketing channels

$20/month

Keep selling where your audience already is. Connect an outside ticketing platform and its buyers land on your door list with everyone else.

Supported today: Eventbrite, Ticket Tailor and pretix.

Venue Family is not owned, developed, or controlled by Eventbrite, and we are not an Eventbrite partner.

Signatures & Waivers

$25/month

Signatures on your own forms with no charge per signature, plus unlimited certified envelopes for contracts and agreements that need a third-party audit trail — no per-envelope charge, no monthly allowance to run out of.

API and developer access

$50/month

Connect your own website, apps or CRM through a documented REST API, with TypeScript and Python clients and API tokens you scope yourself.

Neon One

$25/month

Two-way sync connecting constituent profiles, donations, campaigns, membership tiers, and door attendance telemetry with Neon CRM.

News from Venue Family

A short email when something ships: a new add-on, an integration that is ready, a change at the door. No more than once a month.

Unsubscribe any time. We do not share your address, and this list is separate from anything your organization sends to its own audience.
