Unified Events Scraper: Eventbrite, Meetup & Luma

Scrape Eventbrite, Meetup, and Luma events into one deduplicated JSON/CSV schema: dates, venue, geo coordinates, organizer, price, and RSVPs.

What it does

One run pulls public event listings from Eventbrite, Meetup and Luma for your cities and keyword, normalizes them to one schema and removes cross-posted duplicates (same title + same day). Export clean, deduplicated data as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, or RSS, or connect directly via the Apify REST API, Python/JavaScript SDKs, CLI, MCP Server, n8n, Make, or Zapier — with no login, cookies, or browser overhead.

Use cases

• City & Industry Event Aggregators: Pull tech, startup, AI, or local events from Eventbrite, Meetup, and Luma in a single run with automatic cross-platform deduplication.
• Event Sponsorship & Organizer Lead Gen: Identify active event organizers, venues, ticket pricing, and RSVP traction across target cities.
• Automated Community Newsletters: Schedule weekly runs with onlyNew: true to feed curated local or niche event digests.
• Sales & Conference Intelligence: Track side events, meetups, and workshops happening around major industry conferences.

Pricing (Pay-Per-Result)

This Actor uses transparent Pay-Per-Event pricing with a $0.00 actor-start fee:

Event	What is charged	Price
event-result	Event scraped (One unique event in the unified schema)	$0.004 / result ($4.00 / 1,000 results)
apify-actor-start	Actor start fee	$0.00

Concrete pricing math

• event-result (Event scraped): 1,000 results = $4.00 (50 results = $0.20, 10,000 results = $40.00). Apify's $5.00/month Free Tier covers up to 1,250 results/month at $0.00 out-of-pocket.
• Empty runs (0 results) & skipped duplicates (onlyNew / onlyChanged): $0.00.

Data and compliance

Public event pages only. No attendee or guest lists, no personal data about attendees. Requests are rate-limited and routed through Apify Proxy. Per-input errors are recorded in the run's ERRORS key-value record and are never charged.

FAQ

Do I need an account, login, or API key?
No. This Actor queries public endpoints directly and requires zero credentials.

What happens if I start a run with empty {} input via API or CLI?
Every required input defines both prefill and default values in .actor/input_schema.json, so an empty {} run automatically returns 50+ live records out of the box.
