FESTIVAL SEASON IS HERE— YOUR CHECKLIST BEFORE DOORS OPEN

At Sellout, we know summer festivals move fast. From early bird announcements to opening gates, you’ve got a lot to juggle—and your ticketing platform shouldn’t slow you down. That’s why we’re sharing a quick checklist of what to confirm before doors open.

Whether you’re hosting a one-night event or a multi-day experience, this is the moment to get your system dialed and your team aligned. We’re here to help you move through launch day with clarity, confidence, and zero chaos.

WHAT TO CONFIRM BEFORE LAUNCH

✅ TICKET TIERS & PRICING

Are all of your tiers live, labeled correctly, and priced as expected? Think: GA, VIP, Early Bird, or Day Passes. Double-check purchase limits and make sure the buyer experience is clear and easy.
