Magic Ticket is a next-generation ticketing and event ecosystem designed to replace legacy ticketing platforms by shifting power away from centralized intermediaries and back to artists, producers, venues, and communities. It is not just a ticketing tool—it is a full-stack event infrastructure that combines ticketing, payments, marketing, community engagement, secondary markets, and post-event value into a single regenerative platform.

It is not just a ticketing tool—it is a full-stack event infrastructure that combines ticketing, payments, marketing, community engagement, secondary markets, and post-event value into a single regenerative platform.
The existing ticketing industry is fundamentally broken due to high fees and predatory pricing, inequitable artist and venue support, scalping and fraud, outdated technology, and boring, static ticket experiences. Current platforms treat tickets as disposable access passes. Magic Ticket treats them as living digital assets with long-term value.
Magic Ticket is attempting to do for events what creator platforms did for media: remove extractive middlemen, restore ownership, and turn one-time transactions into lasting ecosystems. It treats ticketing as infrastructure, culture, community, and economic engine—not just access control.
I've been doing ticketing for seven years now at this point, and Magic Ticket is the evolution of all the lessons learned and the ideas and the trials and errors and all the things. At this point, I've done ticketing for six or so venues and sold more than 50,000 tickets through my platform.
It was a little bit rocky in the beginning, I'll be honest, but in the last four or five years, it's been pretty smooth sailing and it's just getting better and better and better.
I almost did a public release of Magic Ticket in 2023. I got the team together, was getting all the resources and everything together, but the team fell apart and I just had to put it on the back burner. I've been doing ticketing consistently behind the scenes, but there hasn't been a public-facing product which I'm hoping to launch in 2026.
One of Magic Ticket's defining ideas is the Living Ticket—a revolutionary approach that reframes tickets from disposable access passes into living digital assets with long-term value.
A Living Ticket evolves before, during, and after the event. It acts as a community access pass, not just entry. It enables upgrades, perks, merch access, tipping, resale controls, and memorabilia. Most importantly, it extends the relationship between fans and creators beyond a single night, transforming tickets from a commodity into an experience container.
Magic Ticket provides a comprehensive feature set organized into five core pillars that cover every aspect of event creation, management, and community engagement.
Artists and producers have direct control over ticket pricing and resale, eliminating predatory intermediaries. Built-in tipping, artist profiles, and reputation systems ("Karma") create sustainable revenue streams beyond ticket sales.
No scalpers. A transparent peer-to-peer secondary marketplace controlled by artists and producers ensures fair resale pricing and eliminates fraud while maintaining artist revenue.
Easy or advanced event creation with templates and best practices. Vendor management, volunteer coordination, liability waivers, photo releases, analytics, reporting, event insurance integration, and wristbands with access levels.
Pre-event merch sales, custom wristbands and merchandise, VIP memberships and subscriptions, premium feature subscriptions, advertising and sponsorships, digital media distribution, and custom development for partners.
VIP and members-only events, post-event engagement, continuous communication, multi-channel communication, contests and gamification, scholarship and philanthropy integrations, and affiliate and ambassador programs.
Commemorative NFTs, tokenization where useful, and ownership-aware resale logic. These are presented as tools, not ideology—practical applications that add value when appropriate.
Magic Ticket intentionally breaks dependence on dominant incumbents by enabling direct peer-to-peer resale controlled by artists and producers. The platform ensures transparent pricing and resale fees, eliminates uncontrolled scalping, and creates a regenerative model where everyone benefits.
The regenerative event ecosystem benefits fans, artists, venues, staff, sponsors, and partners. By removing extractive middlemen and restoring ownership, Magic Ticket turns one-time transactions into lasting ecosystems that treat ticketing as infrastructure, culture, community, and economic engine—not just access control.
