Open-source ticket sales and event registration platform for any scale

5.2k Python Apache-2.0 1 month ago

Overview

pretix is a comprehensive event ticketing and registration system written in Python/Django, used by conferences, concerts, and workshops worldwide. It handles ticket sales, seating plans, check-in apps, invoicing, and attendee management with a plugin architecture for extensibility. The hosted service and self-hosted paths are both well-documented and production-grade.

Where it falls short of Calendly

  • Steeper setup curve than simple booking tools
  • No built-in one-on-one appointment scheduling workflow
  • Mobile app for organizers is Android/iOS only, not PWA

We list the gaps honestly so you can decide if the trade-off is worth owning your data.
