We have the coolest, most functional and easiest to use ticket text interface, no contest.
This new feature allows you to set custom ticket text in the event form and preview what they will look like when they come out of the ticket printer. You get four lines of custom text and you are in control of the font sizes. Once saved, you can get an instant preview of what your tickets will look like, with the options to print a proof or order printed hard tickets.
Check it out:
When creating or editing an event scroll down to the ‘Tickets’ panel. Click on the checkbox next to ‘Ticket Text’ to activate the ticket text editor.

We are now offering our clients low-cost high-quality paper tickets. All tickets have valid bar codes that will tie into your event and can be validated with our barcode scanning equipment. All tickets are numbered and have a hologram.
Its been a week since we returned from Lake Powell, and the first annual POWELLAPALOOZA. Set amongst the red rock desert landscapes and on the lake’s marinas, this festival was the beginning of something legendary.
From the Solar Saucer DJ booth to the Page Shores stage built into a natural rock amphitheater, to the waterfront stage at Antelope Marina and the dune-like setting of the camping area, this experience was without compare. Have you ever seen a 40 foot giant praying mantis with flaming antennae?
We’ve created a way to track comps for your events! Now you can add named comp types for your venues that will be tracked and viewed in your event reports.
First you need to create the new comp type. Login to the venue app and click on the ‘Venues’ tab, then from the menu that loads below the tabs click on ‘Manage Comp Types’.
We’ve always had a place for you to enter your event’s internal-use-only notes, but now we’ve made it easier than ever!
To view and/or edit your notes for an event simply click on your event to get the event overview window.
On the lower left of the event overview click on the ‘Event Notes’ button.
On the day after HoldMyTicket’s staff climbed to the top of Wheeler Peak (the highest mountain in New Mexico) we managed to pull ourselves together, ignore the sunburn, sore legs and go scan a few thousand tickets for fans anxiously arriving at the Taos Mountain Music Festival at Taos Ski Valley, NM.
The dodgy mountain internet had some people involved worried, but it did not affect our ability to quickly scan and validate attendees with our nifty mobile box office devices. In fact, our free-standing box office validation solution just became faster, even if there is no internet available. Even the fact that many people “forgot” to print or bring their print at home tickets with them did not slow us down. Our mobile devices allowed us to quickly check IDs and get people through the gates. I can’t even remember a time through out the day that we even had a line of people waiting!
This year was a pleasure handling ticketing for the Taos Mountain Music Festival 2010. We want to thank everyone for their help and support!
See you next year in Taos!
