StubHub Scraper

Export StubHub events, ticket prices, venues and performers as structured rows for event research and price monitoring.

• Event dates, venues, prices and availability information.
• Individual ticket listings with section, row, quantity and currency when available.
• Performer and venue profiles, category IDs and city filters.
• Public catalog URLs for discovering events.
• Rows cost $3.00 per 1,000 on the Free plan, plus a start fee.

What does StubHub Scraper do?

StubHub Scraper collects public event and ticket information for concerts, sports, theater, comedy and festivals. It is an unofficial Actor, not affiliated with StubHub, and does not buy or reserve tickets.

• Find events: search by keyword, performer, venue, tour, category or location.
• Inspect tickets: collect event details or individual listing rows.
• Find IDs: use autocomplete, categories and performer city presets.
• Discover URLs: read the public sitemap; discovery rows are not price quotes.
• Optional rows: performer profiles, venue profiles and ticket listings are off by default. Each delivered row is billed at the same rate and shares its input's row limit.

The default host is stubhub.com. Other selectable hosts are stubhub.co.uk, stubhub.ie, stubhub.de, stubhub.fr, stubhub.es, stubhub.nl and stubhub.com.au. Their coverage is not guaranteed across modes. Keep regional event URLs on their original host; event IDs are not interchangeable between storefronts.

How to scrape StubHub

1. Open StubHub Scraper in Apify Console.
2. Fill a target, such as query or eventUrl.
3. Set maxResults to 3 for a small first run.
4. Click Start and wait for completion.
5. Download the dataset or read it through the API.

Empty input starts an example search for weeknd, limited to 1 row. It is still a billed run. With mode set to auto, one target selects the mode. Explicit explore, categories and sitemap inputs need no target and do not become example searches.

Search

Fill query with an artist, team or event name. Prefer English search terms; automatic translation is not documented for this Actor.

Performer

Use performerId or performerSlug. Add citySlug and cityId from cities to restrict the events. includePerformerProfile adds a billed profile row.

Event

Paste the canonical eventUrl, or use eventId, detailUrls or listingIds. Despite its name, listingIds accepts event IDs, not ticket-listing IDs. Enable includeListings for individual ticket rows instead of an embedded listing array.

Venue

Copy the ID after /venue/ into venueId, or supply venueSlug. includeVenueProfile adds a billed profile row. venueComplete expands the search but does not guarantee all events.

Grouping

Use groupingId or groupingSlug for a tour or show grouping.

Category

Use categoryId from categories. A categorySlug without an ID falls back to keyword search.

Explore

Set city to a preset such as london, or supply both lat and lon. Without a recognized location, the location defaults to New York City.

Suggest

Choose suggest explicitly and supply query to find entity IDs rather than event rows.

Categories

Choose categories explicitly for category rows and their parent categories.

Cities

Choose cities with a performer ID or slug to obtain that performer's city filters.

Sitemap

Choose sitemap for discovery URLs. Use sitemapChildLimit and sitemapKinds to narrow discovery, then pass selected event URLs to detailUrls in another run.

maxItems and limit are aliases for maxResults; keyword maps to query, and urls maps to startUrls. Close misspellings can be corrected; other unknown fields are ignored with a note. Invalid host or collection-option values are dropped with a warning.

When targets conflict in automatic selection, priority is start URLs, detail URLs, event URL, event IDs, performer, venue, grouping, category, query, then city. Non-event startUrls select list collection. Use one target type to avoid ambiguity.

Input validation errors begin with INVALID_INPUT: and explain the expected field format before rows are charged; the start fee can still apply. The INPUT_REPORT record in the default key-value store records corrections, ignored fields and mode selection.

Output example

Illustrative listing row, not a current ticket offer:

{
  "rowType": "listing",
  "id": "3328712939",
  "listingId": "3328712939",
  "eventId": "159358883",
  "eventTitle": "Example concert",
  "datetimeLocal": "2026-11-20T19:30:00",
  "venueName": "Example Arena",

  "row": "7",
  "quantity": 2,
  "price": 109.0,
  "priceCurrency": "USD",
  "inventoryStatus": "partial",
  "inventoryComplete": false
}

Export the dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, RSS or an HTML table. RUN_SUMMARY contains counts, warnings and whether results were partial.

Why use this StubHub scraper?

• Pay for delivered rows: event, listing and helper rows use the same pricing.
• Keep usable partial results: when collection returns valid partial rows, the Actor delivers them and records incompleteness; a forced stop before delivery can still leave no rows.
• Understand input errors: validation messages explain the expected format.
• Batch URLs or IDs: use the supported array fields for several inputs.
• No proxy setup: you do not need to set up proxies.

How much does it cost to scrape StubHub?

Pay-per-event pricing includes platform usage. The start event is $0.005 per GB of Actor memory, with a minimum of one event. At the default 256 MB, the start fee is $0.005, plus delivered rows:

Apify plan	Price per row	Price per 1,000 rows
Free	$0.003	$3.00
Starter	$0.003	$3.00
Scale	$0.0026	$2.60
Business	$0.0022	$2.20
Platinum	$0.002	$2.00
Diamond	$0.0016	$1.60

maxResults applies to each input, defaults to 70 and accepts up to 500; larger requests are collected in parts of up to 70. Profiles and listings share that input's limit. Free Apify plans are limited to 200 rows per run and 10 runs of this Actor, a limit set by the publisher.

The whole run stops at Maximum cost per run (maxTotalChargeUsd in the API). Example: three event URLs returning five listing rows each give 15 rows. On the Free plan at 256 MB, that is 15 × $0.003 + $0.005 = $0.050.

What happens when the run timeout is too short

A run can pause with the status message "Queued on the collection backend; this run will resume automatically when results are ready (about N s)." It temporarily shows ABORTED. When results are ready, the same run resumes, reports "Resumed: delivering N rows.", writes to the same dataset and finishes as SUCCEEDED. Previously delivered rows are not delivered or charged twice.

This can happen at most three times per run. Keep the default timeout of 3600 seconds to reduce interruptions. The synchronous endpoints run-sync and run-sync-get-dataset-items wait at most 300 seconds and may return an empty dataset while the run is paused. For longer requests, start asynchronously and read the dataset after SUCCEEDED, or use a succeeded-event webhook.

Use with AI agents and the API

Apify MCP server

Add this remote server in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code or another compatible MCP client:

https://mcp.apify.com?tools=lentic_clockss/stubhub-scraper

Sign in with Apify through OAuth, or send Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>. The tool starts a run and returns run and dataset IDs; read the rows with get-dataset-items.

Without remote MCP support, run npx @apify/actors-mcp-server --tools lentic_clockss/stubhub-scraper with APIFY_TOKEN set. Example prompt: "Find three Lakers events on StubHub and return their dates, venues and lowest prices."

Apify API

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("lentic_clockss/stubhub-scraper").call(
    run_input={"query": "lakers", "maxResults": 3}
)
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>' });
const run = await client.actor('lentic_clockss/stubhub-scraper').call({
  query: 'lakers', maxResults: 3,
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

For asynchronous HTTP, send the input as JSON to POST https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/lentic_clockss~stubhub-scraper/runs with an Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN> header. After completion, read GET https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<datasetId>/items?format=json.

FAQ

Is it legal to scrape StubHub?

This Actor collects public data. You are responsible for checking applicable terms and data-protection law; processing personal data requires a lawful basis. Public availability is not permission for every use.

Why did my run end as ABORTED?

The automatic pause described above can show ABORTED temporarily. Check the status message: a manually aborted run or another failure is not necessarily scheduled to resume.

How many results can I get?

Request up to 500 rows per input, subject to available data, page limits, your maximum charge and the Free-plan limits above. Increasing maxResults does not guarantee that many rows exist.

Why are some fields empty?

StubHub does not expose every field on every page. Venue capacity, precise seats and performer details may be missing. Venue phone numbers and email addresses should not be expected.

Can I track price changes?

Use trackChanges with event listings. Only complete inventory observations update snapshots; partial observations are skipped. alertWebhookUrl receives change alerts after the first snapshot. Removed listings do not prove completed sales.

Can I use a UK event ID on stubhub.com?

No. Keep regional URLs on their original host. Matching numbers can refer to different events across storefronts; a selectable host does not guarantee every mode works there.

Are individual seats and maps guaranteed?

No. Seat numbers and ranges depend on the listing. includeSeatMap returns available section/row geometry, not individual-seat coordinates or ticket availability.

Why do currencies differ?

Prices depend on the storefront and displayed offer. Read priceCurrency on each row; do not compare amounts in different currencies as though they were equivalent.

Limitations

• Missing inventory is not sold-out evidence. Check inventoryStatus and inventoryComplete; hasActiveListings alone is unreliable.
• Small row limits can make inventory incomplete and prevent tracking updates.
• Some listings lack authoritative IDs; fallback identities can change with displayed labels.
• Sitemap rows can describe old URLs and do not confirm current prices or availability.
• Regional coverage, complete tours and complete venue calendars are not guaranteed.
• Examples show input shapes, not verified current availability. Replace event links with current targets.
