Scrape Gametime — a US/Canada ticket resale marketplace for concerts, sports, and theater. Browse events by performer, team, or venue name, by metro area, or by category, with date-range filtering and live "from $X" pricing. No login, no API key, no residential proxy required.

Data Source / Limitations

Data comes from Gametime's public mobile-app API (gametime.co) — no login or account is required to view listings. search resolves a free-text name to the single best-matching performer, team, or venue on Gametime; if a query has no match, the actor returns 0 records with a clear status message instead of guessing. byCity uses Gametime's own curated list of 78 US/Canada metro areas — smaller markets not on that list aren't individually addressable. Gametime only lists upcoming events — a dateTo in the past will always return 0 records, since past events are never listed.

FAQ

Is this affiliated with Gametime? No. This is an independent, third-party actor that reads Gametime's public API. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Gametime.

Why does search sometimes return 0 records for a name I know is on Gametime? Two reasons: (1) the performer/team/venue has no upcoming events listed right now — ticket marketplaces only carry future events, so an artist between tours will show 0; (2) the name didn't resolve to a match on Gametime. Try the exact name as it appears on gametime.co.

Why is my city not in the city dropdown? Gametime organizes browsing around 78 curated metro areas (major US and Canadian markets) rather than every individual city. Pick the nearest metro area from the dropdown, or use search with a specific team/venue name instead.

Do I need a proxy? No. The actor works reliably without any proxy configuration. An optional Apify AUTO (datacenter) proxy can be enabled for extra IP diversity, but it is not required and no paid/residential proxy is ever needed.

How fresh is the pricing data? Prices reflect live resale marketplace listings at the time the actor runs — they change frequently as tickets are bought and sold.

Are prices in USD? Yes, all price fields are in US dollars.

Can I filter by date range and category/performer/city at the same time? Yes — dateFrom/dateTo apply on top of whichever mode you choose.

What happens if I request more items than exist? The actor returns as many real records as exist (up to maxItems) and stops — it never fabricates placeholder records.
