Hey up. I am an anarchist and software developer of 20+ years and I really hate predatory ticket sales platforms that add junk fees and take money away from artists and spy on their users, so I built Chobble Tickets which is a fully free and open source (no open core / premium features / corporate licenses) ticket sales app.

It's built on Bunny CDN's "Edge Scripts" (which themselves run on Deno) which gives it cool scaling features out of the box - and it also means the running cost is very low because there's no servers and it scales down to zero

It includes features like:

  • QR code check-ins
  • Encrypted attendee information
  • Stripe & Square payments
  • Public and admin APIs
  • Tiered tickets
  • Custom questions
  • CSV exports
  • Webhook support
  • Custom domains
  • Custom email providers
  • More I'm forgetting

You can get it up and running yourself very quickly, or I'm also offering paid hosting at £50 per year, £25 for artists, musicians, charities and co-operatives. Or some other nerd can host it for you, because it's easy.

(AI warning - I use Claude to help with my coding. This is nowhere near vibe-coded - the code is quite good actually because I have two decades of experience. But if you're super anti-AI, be warned that I used AI when building this)

Nice but doesn't sound self hosted.

You could self-host it easy peasy via Docker, and it'll work with local databases and files

It just won't have the cool scaling stuff that you get from hosting on the edge - and it'd be a bit fiddlier to update
