Moshtix Scraper

What does Moshtix Events Scraper do?

Moshtix Events Scraper extracts live music, festival, comedy and nightlife event listings from Moshtix, Australia's independent ticketing platform. Two operations live in one Actor: search events by keyword and/or state, or pull full detail for one or many specific events - no login, no Moshtix account, no API key.

Why use this Actor?

• Festival & lineup discovery - find every festival and gig matching a keyword or region, with the full artist lineup for each one.
• City/state event feeds - build a recurring feed of what's on in a given state, ready to filter down to a city or venue.
• Ticket monitoring - schedule eventDetails against a watch-list of event IDs and diff consecutive runs to catch price changes, new ticket tiers going on sale, or sell-outs.

What makes this different

Most general event scrapers only capture the headline name, date and a ticket link. This Actor pulls the full picture for every event: the complete artist lineup, every individual ticket tier with its own price and availability (not just a single "from" price), the venue's full street address, and the organizer - all from Australia's dedicated live-music and festival ticketing platform rather than a broad multi-country listings site.

How to use it

1. Pick an Operation: Event Search or Event Details.
2. Fill the matching field:
   • Event Search → a query keyword (artist, event, or venue name), an australian state, or both together for a city-style feed (e.g. keyword "Melbourne" + state VIC).
   • Event Details → eventId (e.g. 198093) or a full moshtix.com.au event URL, or eventIds for a batch.
3. Optionally set maxItems to cap how many events the search operation returns.
4. Click Start.

Batch fields (eventIds) win over their singular counterpart when filled; duplicates and blanks are dropped automatically.

Usage examples

• Festival discovery for a region: operation: search, query: "festival", state: "VIC" - every festival-tagged event in Victoria, with full lineups.
• City feed: operation: search, query: "Sydney" - events matching "Sydney" in name, venue, or address.
• Ticket watch-list: operation: eventDetails, eventIds: ["198093", "198208"] on a daily schedule - track ticket-tier availability over time.

Known Limitations

• Multi-city festival "hub" events (e.g. a national festival listing all its city dates on one page) don't carry ticket tiers themselves - scrape the individual city event listed on that hub page for pricing and lineup.
• Some long-running or free community listings carry minimal or no ticket-tier data (ticketStatus: "Unknown") because the event itself has no paid tiers configured.
• Coverage is limited to what Moshtix itself lists - events sold exclusively through other ticketing platforms won't appear here.
• postcode is frequently blank because Moshtix itself omits it from many venue listings.

FAQ

Does Moshtix have a public API? No general-purpose public API for event data. This Actor gets you event, lineup and ticket data anonymously, no approval process.

Do I need a Moshtix account or API key? No - it runs entirely against Moshtix's public, logged-out pages.

Why is ticketStatus sometimes "Unknown"? The event has no ticket tiers configured on Moshtix (common for informational/free listings) rather than a genuine sold-out or on-sale status.

Can I track price and availability changes over time? Yes - run eventDetails against the same eventIds on a schedule and diff the ticketTypes/ticketStatus fields between runs.
