## Pricing

from $13.20 / 1,000 events

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?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

Extract every event on [District.in](https://www.district.in), Zomato's India ticketing platform, straight from District's own event index. Export to JSON, CSV or Excel, or connect straight into Google Sheets and your own pipeline via the API. Run it on demand or on a schedule. No coding required.

### ✨ Why use this Actor

**Built for anyone who needs India event data without the proxy bill.**

- 🎯 **Event and venue researchers**: pull every event nationwide in one run instead of picking a city and hoping the picker cooperates.
- 💰 **Pricing analysts**: get the real low-to-high price range and every ticket tier, not a single "starting from" string that hides the real spread.
- 📅 **Content and listings teams**: schedule a weekly run and always have current dates, venues and prices for "what's on" pages.

**Full pricing, not a placeholder.** Other District scrapers return one price string per event. This Actor returns the real price range, every individual ticket tier with its own price, and any active discount, because that data is what District itself publishes on every event page.

### 🛠️ Tips for better runs

- Leave `cities` empty for a nationwide sweep, or set it to a short list for a cheaper, faster run focused on your market.
- Combine `categories` with a price range to pull a very specific slice, like every music event under a set budget in one city.
- Raise `maxItems` gradually. District's event index runs to thousands of entries, so a first run with a modest limit is the fastest way to check the data shape before scaling up.
- Turn `includeEndedEvents` on only if you specifically need historical event records; most users want only live, bookable events.

### ❓ FAQ

**Why don't I need a residential proxy for this?**
District's event pages are public and unrestricted. The residential-proxy requirement some other scrapers describe applies only to driving District's own city-search interface, which this Actor doesn't use.

**Is it legal to scrape District.in?**
This Actor only collects data that is already publicly visible on District's own event pages. You are responsible for how you use the data and for complying with District's terms of service.

**Why do some events have no venue name?**
Not every event on District publishes a venue name at the time of listing. This Actor never invents one: if District doesn't publish it, the field is left out rather than filled with a placeholder.

**Can I get notified of new events automatically?**
Yes. Schedule this Actor to run daily or weekly from the Apify Console and pipe new results into Google Sheets, Slack, or your own database with no code.

# Actor input Schema

## `cities` (type: `array`):

Only keep events in these cities, matched against the event's own venue city. Leave empty for all cities.

## `categories` (type: `array`):

Only keep events in these categories, matched against District's own category name (e.g. "Art & Craft", "Music", "Comedy"). Leave empty for all categories.

## `minPrice` (type: `integer`):

Only keep events with a ticket priced at or above this amount. 0 means no minimum.

## `maxPrice` (type: `integer`):

Only keep events with at least one ticket priced at or below this amount. 0 means no maximum.

## `includeEndedEvents` (type: `boolean`):

Keep events District itself shows as ended (no live price or booking link). Off by default since these rows have no usable price/date.

## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):

Stop after collecting this many events. Keep this low for a quick, cheap run; raise it once you know how many you need.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):
