Bon appétit! We’re cooking up exclusive access to unique events celebrating cuisine, cocktails, craft brews, and more with a modern approach to ticketing.
The demands of today’s food and beverage events have become increasingly diverse, spanning multi-day festivals and unique venues. Whether it’s a large-scale beer and spirits festival, a luxurious culinary getaway, or an intimate tasting session with renowned sommeliers and chefs, top event promoters in the F&B scene are turning to Tixr to enhance revenue and create a more enjoyable ticket-buying experience. Our unified e-commerce platform serves as the perfect solution, allowing fans to purchase not only traditional admission tickets but also add-ons, hospitality packages, merchandise, and other offerings available at the festival — all presented in a seamless and branded manner.
Driving interest and sales with Payment Plans, Waitlist, and Rewards.
New food and beverage partners are fully embracing the growth innovations in their Tixr toolkit. Whether it’s a chili cook-off or a Michelin-star-studded event, the inclusion of built-in payment plans, waitlists, and Rewards is yielding significant results in the F&B world.
Payment Plans: Tixr’s automated, interest-free payment plans prove to be a win-win for both fans and event producers. Carmen Pauna, Tixr Partnerships Executive, quotes that “simply providing a payment plan captures the attention of new audiences and reduces barriers for entry, especially among younger and more diverse crowds.” On average, 20% of overall food and beverage event sales transact with a payment plan attached, defying assumptions that layway wouldn’t be utilized by premier food and wine festivals worldwide.
Waitlist: Waitlist is becoming an invaluable tool for insights gathering, forecasting, and data-driven decision-making for future F&B events. “In addition to wielding Waitlist as a risk-free way to gauge true demand after sellout, I’m seeing certain events use Waitlist to assess demand before they expand or offer something new. I love seeing my clients feel empowered to move forward or hit pause with confidence because they are able to make data driven decisions using Tixr.” adds Pauna.
Rewards: Food and Beverage event creators are generating organic buzz, saving on marketing expenses, and redefining the fan experience through Tixr Rewards. The built-in peer-to-peer incentive layer leverages fans as micro-influencers, encouraging attendees to share their personal link to sell tickets and unlock prize tiers. By utilizing Tixr Rewards, event creators, along with sports and festival partners, can fully customize the incentives offered to fans who sell tickets on their behalf. Whether through automated fulfillment or on-site delivery, Tixr Rewards offers unparalleled versatility and customization to give back to fans who’ve become influential advocates through modern word-of-mouth.
