## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

## TicketOffice.ae Scraper

![TicketOffice.ae Scraper](https://i.ibb.co/Df0YmWVv/ticketoffice-ae-banner.png)

**TicketOffice.ae Scraper** extracts events, attractions, concerts, and shows from [TicketOffice.ae](https://ticketoffice.ae/) into clean, structured data you can download as JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML. Paste a city, category, venue, performer, search, or event URL, or type a few keywords, and get every show date, the venue with its address, performers, category, age limit, images, and full description for each event. No account or login required.

### Introduction

[TicketOffice.ae](https://ticketoffice.ae/) is a UAE ticketing portal for attractions, theme parks, water parks, tours, concerts, sports, and theatre in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, plus selected concerts and sports events abroad. It is available in English, Russian, and Arabic.

This actor collects the same public information you see in your browser and turns it into a ready-to-use dataset. You can run it once, schedule it to run daily, or connect it to your own tools.

### What data can you extract from TicketOffice.ae?

- 🎤 Event title, short title, summary, and full description
- 🗂️ Category and subcategory (for example Kids & Family / Water park)
- 📅 First and last show date, number of shows, and every show date with its start and end time
- 📍 Venue name, address, venue type, hall, city, country, and region code
- 🎸 Performers with links to their pages
- 🔞 Age restriction
- 💲 Lowest price and currency, when the site shows a price
- 🖼️ Cover image and all event images
- 🔗 Direct URL to each event and venue page

### Use Cases

- 📈 **Market research**: see which attractions, tours, and shows are sold in Dubai and Abu Dhabi and how often they run.
- 🕵️ **Competitor monitoring**: follow the attractions and events listed by a UAE ticket reseller and spot new ones.
- 🗓️ **Events calendars**: build a what's-on guide for the UAE with dates, venues, and descriptions.
- 🗂️ **Database building**: create your own catalog of UAE venues, attractions, and performers.
- 🤖 **AI and automation**: feed clean, structured data into spreadsheets, dashboards, or AI workflows.

### How to scrape TicketOffice.ae step by step

1. Paste one or more TicketOffice.ae URLs into **Start URLs**, or type keywords into **Search queries**.
2. Optionally narrow your search queries with **Category**, **City**, **Date from**, and **Date to**.
3. Set **Maximum number of results** to how many events you want per URL or per query.
4. Click **Start** and wait for the run to finish.
5. Download your data in JSON, CSV, Excel, or HTML from the **Output** tab.

### Input

- **Start URLs**: TicketOffice.ae URLs to scrape. Supported pages: the home page, a city (`https://ticketoffice.ae/dubai`), a category or subcategory (`https://ticketoffice.ae/concerts`, `https://ticketoffice.ae/dubai/other/active-recreation`), the Today, Tomorrow, and On the weekend pages (`https://ticketoffice.ae/segodnya`), a venue (`https://ticketoffice.ae/dubai/playgrounds/the-dubai-mall`), a performer (`https://ticketoffice.ae/persons/oasis`), a search page, or a single event page. Russian (`/ru/`) and Arabic (`/ar/`) pages are supported too. The city, category, and date of the page are kept in the results.
- **Search queries**: keywords to search on TicketOffice.ae (event name, venue, or performer), one per line. Each query is scraped separately.
- **Maximum number of results**: how many events to collect for each start URL or search query. Set 0 for no limit.

```

You can download the dataset in JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or HTML, or access it through the Apify API.

### Notes

- TicketOffice.ae currently does not show ticket prices for its events, so `minPrice` and `currency` are `null`. They are filled in automatically when the site shows a price again.
- Dates and times are the local time of the venue, exactly as shown on the site.
- On the Today, Tomorrow, and On the weekend pages (and with the date filters), only the show dates inside that period are returned for each event.
- Text that is not translated on the site falls back to English on Russian and Arabic pages.
- Pages that do not list events (Contacts, Help, the list of all venues, and so on) are skipped. A city, venue, or performer that does not exist on the site is skipped with a warning.
- The site lists a few dozen events at a time, so even unlimited runs finish quickly.

### Why use the TicketOffice.ae Scraper?

- ✅ **No login needed**: works with public data only, so there is no account to manage.
- 🎯 **Keeps your filters**: paste any city, category, date, venue, or performer page and get exactly the events you see there.
- 📅 **Every show date**: get the full schedule of each attraction or event, not only the next date.
- 🧹 **Clean data**: numbers are real numbers, dates use one standard format, and text is free of HTML.
- 💸 **Pay for what you need**: set a result limit per URL or query and keep every run small and cheap.
- 🔄 **Ready for automation**: schedule runs, export to Google Sheets, or connect to Make, Zapier, and n8n.

### FAQ

#### How many results can I scrape?

You can set any number in **Maximum number of results**, or 0 for no limit. The actor keeps going until it reaches your limit or runs out of events on the page you gave it.

#### Do I need a TicketOffice.ae account?

No. The actor only collects publicly available data. You do not need to log in or provide any account details.

#### Can I scrape data on a schedule?

Yes. Use Apify Schedules to run the actor every hour, day, or week, and get fresh data automatically.

#### Why are some fields empty?

Some events simply do not show every piece of information, such as performers or a hall name. When a field is not available on the website, it is returned as `null` or an empty list.

#### Can I request a new feature or filter?

Yes. Right now the actor supports start URLs, search queries, and category, city, and date filters. If you need other filters or inputs, get in touch and they can be added.

#### Can I get a custom or private version?

Yes. The actor can be customized for your workflow, delivered as a private version, or a new scraper can be built for a different website. Use the contact details below.
