Today, we're pleased to announce the all-new Ents24 Backstage
an essential, free tool for anyone that organises live events.
What Is It?
Simply, it's a platform that enables event organisers of all kinds to list, promote, and sell tickets to their events to an existing audience of millions of live entertainment fans - at no cost.
Why Use It?
- It puts your event on Ents24 - the UK's biggest live entertainment guide, visited by 1.8 million users every month.
- It enables Ents24 to promote your event to millions of event-goers, via the site itself, our newsletters, tour alerts, social media and more!
- You can sell tickets to your event directly, at no extra cost to you, thanks to our partnership with See Tickets.
- You can combine it with our widgets to add events to our site and yours at the same time.
- It's completely free.
Whether you're planning a music, comedy, sport, theatre or family event, whether you're a promoter, band, manager, label or work at a venue, planning a weekly clubnight that runs for months, a one-off event or a UK tour, Ents24 Backstage works for you.
How It Works
All you need to do is register here – and take the tour showing you how to start adding your events.
If you represent a venue or artist, you can also claim your existing profile page to maintain, as well as adding a profile if one doesn't already exist.
If you get stuck, or have any queries that aren't answered in our 'Help' section, feel free to contact Graham on backstage@ents24.com
With this faster and easier way to add your events - along with new promotional features - Ents24 Backstage remains the industry's favourite way to reach new fans.
Adding A Widget
Search for any artist or venue at Ents24.com and scroll down, and you'll find a 'Widget' button. You can use this to add any artist or venue's listings onto your/their own website.
Once you do, if you've claimed that artist or venue in Backstage, then any existing or future events that you add will appear (once checked) on Ents24 and on your own site - with valid reliable ticket links.
Exclusive Deals
From time to time, we'll team up with all kinds of suppliers to the live entertainment industry to offer exclusive deals to Backstage users.
For example, until December, Backstage users can get 20% off their first hire of a Luxury class 9 seat splitter van hire from our pals at Vans For Bands!
Offers like this will start appearing on Backstage soon - keep an eye out.
A select group of venues and other event organisers had early access to Backstage - here's what they had to say:
"Great - listing events is incredibly easy, and the Ents24 team is very professional and really fast should you need any help at all." - KOKO
"A great platform for promoting our events online. Adding events is quick and easy, plus we're able to promote them to their wide audience of live music fans at no cost at all." - The Windmill, Brixton
"I've been using Ents24 as an artist and manager for around 4 years. Ents24 is doing a brilliant job. I find that it (Backstage) is easy to use without any specialist knowledge, listing events and announcing the concerts/tours is made so much easier for me. Thanks for being here." - Les McKeown (Bay City Rollers starring Les McKeown)
