Relying on admission tickets and drinks is no longer enough to keep up.

From hotels to transportation, Tixr bundles event experiences for increased revenue, simplified management, and lasting fan loyalty.

For large-scale festivals and destination events, fans expect more than just an entry ticket — they’re looking for a fully integrated event experience. Complex events often require additional elements like accommodations and exclusive perks, which legacy systems struggle to manage in a cohesive way.

Tixr’s sleek, modern tech lets fans effortlessly personalize their entire journey, from booking hotels and transportation to securing parking, meals, and activities — all in one place, providing a distinct competitive edge.

Tixr-Powered Hospitality Packages Transform the Event Journey

Tixr turns logistical headaches into a positive part of the experience, helping your event thrive. Here’s how:

1. Drive Fan Loyalty Through Convenience

Fans are more likely to return to events that offer a seamless, stress-free experience. With our multidimensional commerce offerings, fans can customize their trip in one place, eliminating the need to juggle bookings across different platforms. This simplicity builds long-term loyalty, keeping your event relevant and ensuring fans come back year after year.

2. Boost Sales with Bundled Offerings

Ticket sales alone aren’t enough to remain profitable today. When fans can easily book extras like hotel stays, parking, and more, they’re more likely to increase their spend. Add integrated payment plans into the mix and you have a recipe for maximized sales. Without bundled packages, you risk losing valuable revenue to competitors who offer a complete experience.

3. Flexibility to Scale Alongside Your Event

Tixr’s platform is built to handle complex, multi-layered packages, making it easy for organizers to expand their offerings as their event scales. Whether you’re adding more hotel options, afterparty passes, merch or pre-ordered food and beverage, Tixr grows with you.

3. Easier Management for Organizers

By centralizing travel, hospitality, and ticketing, our solutions reduce the load on your customer support team. Through partnerships with hospitality groups like 100x, Tixr offers a turnkey accommodations solution, taking the burden off your team while ensuring fans have a smooth booking experience. 

How Top Festivals Combine Tickets and Travel with Ease

Leading festivals offering thousands of fans the chance to curate their entire event journey from accommodations to activities in one go.

Splash House

Set across three iconic Palm Springs hotels (Renaissance, Margaritaville, and Saguaro), Splash House uses Tixr to bundle hotel stays, shuttle passes, exclusive parties, and more. Tixr’s interface makes it easy for fans to create a personalized weekend of music and poolside fun.

Lightning in a Bottle

Hosted at Buena Vista Lake in Central California, Lightning in a Bottle offers everything from camping to luxury boutique accommodations. Whether fans prefer to sleep under the stars or enjoy VIP comfort, Tixr ensures smooth, efficient transactions for thousands of attendees.

Honcho Campout

Held in the serene setting of Four Quarters in Artemas, Pennsylvania, Honcho Campout offers a unique gathering in nature, celebrating self-expression and inclusivity. Fans can choose between glamping, camping, and meal plans, along with roundtrip transportation options from New York City and Pittsburgh. Plus, a campout accommodations map on the event page allows fans to visualize the glamping setup as they choose their tickets.
