What is Event Tickets Center?

Event Tickets Center is an online resale marketplace for tickets to concerts, sporting events, Broadway shows and other events. You can shop by city, artist, date and popular events and venues. The website sells MLB, NHL, NBA, NFL, NASCAR, PGA, college sports, tennis, boxing and WWE tickets and tickets for Broadway shows, concerts in all genres and special events like Coachella and awards shows.

For an additional fee, ETC offers ticket insurance, which covers 100% of your ticket price if you are unable to attend an event and provides concierge service to assist with parking and hotel searches. The company also offers a 100% guarantee on all its tickets, which ensures a refund (minus shipping) in any of the following cases:

  • Your order was accepted but not delivered
  • Your order was accepted but not delivered in time
  • Your tickets were not valid
  • Your event is canceled

How does Event Tickets Center work?

Event Tickets Center gets most tickets from the secondary market, so many are listed below face value. Its sellers must be registered; some have special deals with teams, band managers or event promoters. Many ETC listings feature eTickets, which can be delivered directly by email or text. Delivery methods vary by seller and event, but you’re guaranteed on-time receipt of any tickets you buy on the site. Often, ETC offers some last-minute and same-day tickets.

The site doesn’t list seat numbers, but for group sales the seller must indicate if the seats are split; otherwise, all seats purchased at once are guaranteed to be together. Sellers are responsible for processing payments and refunds.

Event Tickets Center fees

Event Tickets Center charges a service fee for all transactions. This amount depends on the sale price, number of tickets and other factors. The average service fee from ETC is 31.5%. Delivery charges also apply. ETC ticket prices are set by sellers and can vary greatly.

Event Tickets Center FAQ

Is Event Tickets Center reliable?

ETC is a marketplace, so every seller is different. Sellers must register with ETC to conduct sales through the site. The company guarantees receipt of its tickets before the event — or your money is refunded (note that refunds are issued by the seller, not ETC).

Does Event Tickets Center have a ticket guarantee?

Event Tickets Center backs every ticket purchase with a 100% guarantee, which covers purchase price and service fees (minus shipping) in case of order issues, including:

  • Your order was accepted but not delivered
  • Your order was accepted but not delivered in time
  • Your tickets were not valid
  • Your event is canceled
Does Event Tickets Center sell electronic tickets?

Event Tickets Center offers many tickets in electronic form. These eTickets are available to download and print.

Can I list tickets on Event Tickets Center?

You must be registered to list tickets on ETC’s site.

Still have questions?

Is Event Tickets Center legit?

Event Tickets Center makes ticket shopping convenient with its thousands of searchable events. If you want last-minute tickets, tickets to sold-out shows or tickets cheaper than face value, you might find what you need through ETC. The company backs all purchases with a 100% guarantee; however, the sellers are responsible for processing refunds.

    The whole ticket-purchasing process was quick, easy, and seamless. I was able to find the show I wanted right away, and choosing my seats was very simple. The seat-map visualization was especially helpful because I could clearly see where the seats were located before making my selection. The entire process was straightforward, and I was able to get exactly the tickets I wanted. Overall, it was a very smooth and convenient experience.

      Do not use this company. Unfortunately you'll be left at the box office paying for more tickets out of pocket due to the odd ways this 3rd party company wants to give you event tickets. I had never used a 3rd party retailer as I've been going to concerts for YEARS. Save yourself the trouble of having to call your bank and request they help review and resolve a dispute off your account. I paid 330 dollars for Wu Tang Clan. Got to the concert. Was not able to get my tickets at the box office after emailing, calling the Event Tickets hotline. They were no help in helping me get my tickets off the ticket master website. It was a stressful situation that Thankfully my bank account was able to resolve the issue because I was not able to get my tickets I paid for. Plus the pricing is astronomically higher than if you just go to the box office and purchase. Save yourself the trouble and just do that instead.

      Beware of look alike sites! Or even when you go to the Events Ticket....There are phishing sites that steal your login to an official site. It happened to me. Price was high but I didn’t know otherwise, but when I print out the tickets they changed my seating completely, gave nothing that showed what I paid. It showed nothing on the actual site I purchased from but showed only “event tickets”. I called them and I didn’t not purchase from them. I paid $145 for their cheapest tickets in which the official site had nothing at that price. They explained to me it was a 2nd party ticket!! That is fraud. I’m going through my bank to reverse charges. BEWARE when buying tickets.

      This is more a friendly warning for others and a good reminder to myself. This was the first time I realized I wasn't buying from the actual event page in my area (after the fact). I had Googled the event and thought the link I was navigated to was the correct page. I realized after the fact that I had purchased a ticket that was $29 higher than the actual event's page was selling them for! So, I paid $88.80 here instead of the $56.80 from the Event. I realized my mistake and take accountability. I still tried to write and explain in hopes they would refund me so I could purchase directly from the Event page. Was told this is a marketplace for other ticket resellers. So in other words, there's no checks and balances and just know any ticket on here is probably NOT the same price as the event's page.

      It saddens me to know that tickets can be re-sold at way higher prices for profit. It's shady and we all know it. I'm responsible because I should have double checked the page I was on. It saddens to think how many others have fallen for this though. This is definitely marketplace for scalpers to take advantage. What I'm really dissatisfied about is not having the ticket once I paid the money. Why hold this ticket until the day of? I want this ticket now so I can print it off and be assured I have it. What if the day of the event, which is this Fri for me, doesn't give me the ticket? When will I see it released? In the AM, in the afternoon? Right before the event? I have to have time to print and travel so the event itself. I'm so nervous I am not going to get my ticket. Why is this being held after I already paid for it????

      Hi, Tara. Delayed delivery dates are estimates, and tickets can release earlier. For security, many venues/primary platforms restrict access until 24-48 hours before the event - this is set by organizers, not us, and it's standard for time-sensitive orders. Your tickets are guaranteed to arrive in time for Friday's event, with instructions sent by email (check spam too).

      Event Tickets Center's marketing tactic to make people think tickets are already on sale and are almost sold out is just awful. They are very misleading. I bought tickets from them because they were advertising that inventory for tickets was almost sold out when in fact the opposite was true. I ended up paying triple the cost of a ticket before it even went on sale when I could've easily bought a ticket the day they went on sale for way less. I will never buy from this site again.

These excuses don’t hide the fact that this is a ticket scalping rip off con Company. And be claim on their website oh yes, tickets are refundable but when you realize you’ve been called and asked for a refund, they say oh no, we don’t give refunds, except if something extreme has happened, like the venue burned down and therefore no show going on. DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!

      ORIGINAL REVIEW: We googled our local theater to buy tickets. The theater popped up and we clicked on it, inadvertently clicking on Event Ticket Center. We had thought the prices were about $70 - $80, But suddenly we saw the tickets were $120-$180. We couldn't figure what was going on but we really wanted to see this show so we sprung for these very expensive tickets. Shortly after we looked back at the website and managed to find the actual website for our local theater where the tickets were less than half what Event Ticket Center charged us. What a rip off outfit! We are currently trying to get our money back and return those crazily expensive tickets. It seems like a con.

      The most complicated effort to retrieve tickets imaginable. I attend dozens of events each year and while I'm not in love with the whole "use phones for Every-**-Thing" the process usually works. In those cases where there's a glitch, "the help" helps...and then it works. Worst case, they move the tickets to will-call. This time, "help" was just an hour of uselessness, partial instructions, links that didn't work and absolutely no options for other delivery methods. Links that sent me to nowhere useful. Links that didn't even work, instructions to look for options that weren't there, etc.

      One huge issue with this purchase... they added $49.60 service fee. Taxes always expected... a 20% service fee... not expected. Plus this was not disclosed at the start of the ticket process... Be upfront with ALL fees and cost. Also the ticket process would only give the row the seats were in. Not what the actual seat number and location. Not a big deal with such a small theater... would be a big deal if this was stadium size. But in the end, this was the only way to get tickets to this event... so we were stuck with paying the extra fee with no idea where we are sitting.

      Hi, Roy. As a secondary ticket marketplace, we use all-in pricing: the total price, including all required fees, appears before you ever reach checkout, with a full breakdown at checkout too. For seating, sellers list section/row at time of purchase; exact seat numbers are typically issued with the tickets themselves. If you have questions about a specific order, reach out to customersupport@eventticketscenter.com and our team can take a closer look.

      Great to hear things have been fixed! While we do not support currencies outside of USD please know that's on the roadmap to add in the future, so we will support CAD pricing.

      Original Review: Sept. 12, 2026

      I was totally disgusted that I ordered tickets for a show in Canada and was charged in American funds. This was not clear anywhere on the site until you received your receipt. It is in small print under the dollar amount! I called back and had no satisfaction other than a refund of some service fee. This site is misleading! I am a senior on a pension and more importantly I am a Canadian citizen!

      I ended up paying 3x the face value of the tickets. I thought the price looked high, so I googled the venue, found what looked like the official site and the link also went to Event Tickets so I thought it was legit. When I found the real venue site a day later on a different ad, that linked to Ticketmaster with plenty of available seats at a much cheaper price. I learned my lesson and hope you all don't get burned too.

      Event Tickets Center is a secondary ticket resale marketplace, and prices are set by our verified seller partners based on demand, so they can land above face value. Our marketplace status and full pricing are disclosed on every page and throughout checkout. We don't control search placements, so we can't speak to any links you clicked while googling for tickets.

      Such a ridiculous scam. I cannot believe this business is allowed to operate. They will scam you for 4X the real ticket price and do not notify you until after purchase that your tickets aren't available until the day before the event. How are you reselling tickets for a show that is not even close to being sold out, for 400% of the price? I called and demanded proof of my ticket, which they couldn't provide. I threatened to file for a chargeback with my CC company because I paid for something which I did not receive.

      My CC company said this is a common scam practice and encouraged me to file the dispute, but I called Event Tickets Center again and asked for a full refund. After arguing for my refund again, they agreed and sent it to me. They say they will not provide refunds, but they know they are using scam practices and don't want to be caught/reported. If you've also been scammed by them, keep calling and asking for your deserved refund!

      First, I want an explanation of why you are charging me $62 for a $39 concert. What are you doing other than sending an email and charging my card, because those 2 things don't cost $62? Second, if you are charging over 61% of the cover ticket price, why can't I transfer my tickets to my Google wallet for safekeeping and easy access. Third, when I searched for the Petaluma show, it didn't exist. I bought nonrefundable tickets for Berkeley and can't exchange them for the show I wanted.

      I think you're ripping people off. I went to a concert 6 days ago, bought $35 tickets for a show at Concord Pavilion from Ticketmaster 3 days before the show with killer seats, and I can't fathom them charging more than $5 or maybe $10 in fees for that show. Plus TM is hooked up to Google and I can store my tickets in my Google Wallet.

      I'm absolutely disturbed with your business practices and run a monopoly on ticket prices. TM learned their lesson on over changing people with their fees by having a class action lawsuit against them. Maybe it's time you have to repay your customers. Back before phones, tickets were bought at the local record store for face value.

      Tickets today are mostly seats with different prices, way more than tickets years ago that were cardboard without fees. You add fees for charging my card and sending an email to me, probably everything is a program run automatically. I want an explanation of how fees are even added when you do less than no fee tickets from a record store, costing more for the record company to issue tickets then an internet purchase. I don't see other online businesses charging a 61% surplus fee to make their online purchases. Why be worse than scalpers when they were popular? I am thoroughly 100% disappointed and disgusted with this company and hope to never have to do business with you again.

      Bought the wrong ticket. Tried to resell the ticket. Due to it pending for review it got within the 24 hours of the event and the post to sell the tickets was removed. I lost out on $207. Review should happen in a faster manner to ensure money is not lost. I will not use this site again.

      Not Great! Tickets were listed as $22, the tickets themselves say $22, but I was charged $202 for 3 tickets. The math is not correct, even with the service fee, it's still 3x too much that was charged. Can someone fix this?

      Hi, Christina. As a live secondary ticket marketplace, listings on Event Tickets Center are provided by licensed/registered sellers who set prices based on real-time market demand. As a result, listing prices frequently differ from the original face value printed on the ticket itself. To ensure complete clarity, our checkout process shows the all-in price upfront - including fees - so you can review and approve the final total before completing your order.

      I’m very disappointed that I did not receive my tickets on the day that I ordered and paid for them., And the decision has been made to send the tickets a day before the event but the money has been taken out of my account. Which means that you’re already paid and I don’t have what I ordered which is so unfair, and it is also overpriced. I want to make sure that I have my tickets beforehand (as I have before when I purchased tickets from Zanies,) and I really hope this is not fraud or scam. I sure hope this is Legal. Because something just does not seem right. I’ve never use this app before and how decisions can be made about the consumer's money to this end will not do use this app again.

      As I stated before I paid for my tickets and have not received them which is very unfair to me as the consumer. Whoever set this kind of service up needs to change the arrangements. It appears to be all about them not the consumer. For future tickets for Zanies. I would never purchase tickets again using this website due to the poor service, it provides.

      Hi Cynthia. We appreciate you reaching out about your experience. Unfortunately, sometimes due to venue/artist/promoter restrictions we cannot transfer tickets until closer to the event date. We don't have any say or influence in these decisions. We do our best to alert customers by posting an estimated delivery date in the seller's notes on every ticket listing and on the first page of checkout.

      If you have any questions or concerns please reach out at customersupport@eventticketscenter.com
