TodayTix is a digital ticketing platform that builds a mobile-first marketplace for discovering and purchasing tickets to theater, live performances, and cultural events, serving audiences worldwide while partnering with theaters and producers.[1][2][6] It solves the problem of cumbersome, exclusionary ticket buying by offering seamless apps for iOS and Android, exclusive deals, reviews, and paperless tickets, making arts accessible to millennials and newcomers alike.[1][2][5] With strong growth momentum, TodayTix Group (its parent) connects over 20 million users to 20,000+ partners, has sold hundreds of millions in tickets, and expanded globally, fueled by a market projected to hit $68.3 billion by 2030.[1][6][7]
TodayTix was founded in March 2013 in New York City by Broadway producers Brian M. Fenty (CEO & Co-Founder) and Merritt Baer (President & Co-Founder), who spotted an opportunity as mobile ticket sales for Broadway were under 0.1% despite rising smartphone use.[2][4] The idea emerged from their industry experience, aiming to streamline access in a fragmented market; a beta iPhone app launched in September 2013 saw 50,000 ticket purchases in three months, leading to a full December launch.[2] Early traction included $1 million seed funding in 2014 from Rubicon Venture Capital and others, followed by $5 million Series A, and a pivotal $73 million growth equity round in 2019 from Great Hill Partners, enabling international expansion to London (2015), Australia (2019), and beyond.[2][7]
TodayTix rides the digital transformation of live entertainment, capitalizing on 98% US adult mobile penetration and a booming online ticketing market amid post-pandemic demand for cultural experiences.[1][2] Timing aligns with e-commerce growth in arts, where tech bridges physical events and digital convenience, countering legacy systems' barriers.[1][3] Market forces like rising global audiences and venue digitization favor it, as seen in expansions and acquisitions like Encore in Europe.[6][7] It influences the ecosystem by enabling theaters/producers with revenue tools, fostering inclusivity, and blending entertainment with tech to draw younger demographics.[4][6]
TodayTix Group is poised to dominate cultural e-commerce, potentially deepening AI-driven personalization and virtual experiences while expanding into emerging markets and hybrid events.[3][6] Trends like immersive tech (e.g., competitors' 3D platforms) and sustained live-event recovery will shape its path, amplifying its 20M+ user base.[1][3] Its influence may evolve from ticketing disruptor to full ecosystem enabler, securing "a seat for everyone" in a $68B+ market.[1][6] This builds on its founding mission to make theater effortless and inclusive for a global audience.[2][5]
TodayTix has raised $15.6M across 3 funding rounds. Most recently, it raised $9.0M Series B in February 2016.
