## Pricing

from $3.50 / 1,000 event results

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## 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`).

**Eventbrite scraper** for Apify — an **Eventbrite events scraper** for **city search**, **category / date filters**, **event URLs**, and **organizer pages**. Built for **event aggregation**, **local-market research**, and **organizer lead lists**. Export dates, venues, GPS, ticket prices, sold-out flags, and organizer profiles as JSON. A practical **Eventbrite API alternative** for Python, Node.js, Sheets, and **MCP** / AI assistants. HTTP-only (no browser).

> **Crawloop Events suite** — ticketed nightlife, editorial club calendars, and general catalogs.

| Eventbrite Scraper ◄── you are here | [Shotgun Scraper](https://apify.com/crawloop/shotgun-scraper) | [Resident Advisor Scraper](https://apify.com/crawloop/resident-advisor-scraper) |
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
| Conferences, gigs, ticket prices, organizers | Ticketed club nights, prices, SKUs | Club nights, lineups, RA clubs & DJs |

### When to use this Actor

- **Eventbrite search scraper** — city slug + keyword, category, date bucket, free/paid, online
- **Eventbrite event scraper** — paste `/e/…-tickets-{id}` URLs for venue GPS, offer price range, and organizer stats
- **Organizer scraper** — upcoming events listed on a public `/o/` profile
- **Change monitor** — scheduled runs that emit only new or changed events (price, sold-out, dates)
- **Eventbrite API alternative** — public-page dataset when you do not have an organizer OAuth token

### When not to use this Actor

- **Attendee names, emails, or guest lists** — not on public pages; organizer OAuth only
- **Your own Eventbrite inventory / orders** — use Eventbrite’s official API with your token
- **Unlimited “all events worldwide” dumps** — search is capped at about **10,000 events per query**; slice by city and date
- **Private or unlisted events** — public listings only
- **Club nights, DJ lineups, or RA venue/DJ profiles** — use [Resident Advisor Scraper](https://apify.com/crawloop/resident-advisor-scraper)
- **Ticketed nightlife SKUs on Shotgun** — use [Shotgun Scraper](https://apify.com/crawloop/shotgun-scraper)

### Key features

- **HTTP-first** — destination search JSON + event `__NEXT_DATA__`. No headless browser
- **Same public fields as the listing page** — id, title, dates, tags, venue, GPS, ticket min/max, sold-out, organizer
- **Optional details pass** — description HTML/text, offer schema fallback, organizer attendee **counts**
- **Filters** — location slug, keyword, category, date bucket or custom dates, free/paid, online
- **Monitor mode** — remember events between runs; emit only `new` or `changed`
- **Caps that save budget** — `maxItems`, `maxPages` (20 events per search page)
- **Proxy optional** — public catalog usually works from datacenter HTTP

  "maxItems": 50,
  "scrapeDetails": false
}
```

#### Input example — keyword + category

  ],
  "scrapeDetails": true,
  "maxItems": 10
}
```

### Output Format

| Field | Description |
| :--- | :--- |
| `recordType` | `event` |
| `id` / `name` / `url` | Eventbrite id, title, canonical page |
| `startDate` / `endDate` / `startTime` / `endTime` / `timezone` | Local schedule |
| `venueName` / `venueCity` / `latitude` / `longitude` | Venue (expand or details) |
| `minPrice` / `maxPrice` / `currency` / `isFree` / `isSoldOut` | Ticket availability |
| `organizerName` / `organizerUrl` / `organizerVerified` | Organizer |
| `organizerTotalAttendees` | Public **count** on the event page (not a guest list) |

- Collect organizer profiles for local outreach (public pages only)
- Monitor sold-out / price changes with `monitorMode`
- Feed MCP / AI assistants a structured Eventbrite dataset instead of HTML

### Integration examples

#### Node.js

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });

const run = await client.actor('crawloop/eventbrite-scraper').call({
  location: 'ny--new-york',
  maxItems: 50,
  scrapeDetails: false,
});

const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items.slice(0, 5));
```

#### Python

```python
import os
from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient(os.environ["APIFY_TOKEN"])
run = client.actor("crawloop/eventbrite-scraper").call(
    run_input={
        "location": "ny--new-york",
        "maxItems": 50,
        "scrapeDetails": False,
    }
)
items = client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).list_items().items
print(items[:5])
```

  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"location":"ny--new-york","maxItems":20}'
```

### MCP and AI assistants

Use this Actor from AI tools via [Apify MCP](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp).
Connect your Apify account, then call this Actor by its Store ID `crawloop/eventbrite-scraper`.

Example prompts:

- "Run Eventbrite Scraper for location ny--new-york, this weekend, max 30 events, and return name, date, venue, and URL as JSON"
- "Scrape Eventbrite events matching fintech conference in united-states and summarize categories and price range"
- "Chain Eventbrite Scraper then Shotgun Scraper for Paris this weekend — general catalog plus nightlife SKUs"

### FAQ

**Does this use the official Eventbrite API?**
No. Public search on `eventbriteapi.com` is gone. This Actor reads the same destination-search JSON and event pages a guest browser gets. Organizer OAuth is for **your** events, not the public catalog.

**Why do I only get ~10k events for a city?**
Eventbrite search reports `object_count` 10000 per query. Slice by neighbourhood slug, category, or date window for more.

**Are attendees included?**
No. Public pages expose organizer `totalAttendees` as a count. Names and emails are not listed.

**Do I need a proxy?**
Usually not. Turn on Apify Proxy only if search returns 401/403/429.

**What is a location slug?**
The path segment in Eventbrite discovery URLs: `/d/ny--new-york/all-events/` → `ny--new-york`.

**Can I scrape Eventbrite with Python or Node.js?**
Yes. Call `crawloop/eventbrite-scraper` from the Apify client (examples above) or via **MCP**. The dataset is JSON.

**Does monitor mode charge for unchanged events?**
No. Unchanged rows are skipped and not written to the dataset.

### What to run next

After an Eventbrite city dump, run [Shotgun Scraper](https://apify.com/crawloop/shotgun-scraper) when you need ticketed nightlife SKUs, or [Resident Advisor Scraper](https://apify.com/crawloop/resident-advisor-scraper) for club calendars, DJ lineups, and public booking blurbs.
