Eventbrite Scraper (plus Meetup and Luma)

Upcoming events for any city from Eventbrite, Meetup and Luma in one table: name, date and time, venue and address, organiser, price, free flag, online flag, image and link. Pay only for events delivered. No login, no browser, no API key.

Tired of event scrapers that fail one run in ten (the two busiest Eventbrite actors on the Store fail 9% and 12% of their runs), or that cover one platform and stop at the first page? This one reads the three platforms' own data feeds, merges them, keeps an event listed twice only once, and ends every run with a plain status line that says what came back from each source and why.

What you get

One row per event:

Field	Example
source	eventbrite, meetup or luma
name, url	Django London Meetup October, the event page
start, end, timezone	2026-10-14T18:15:00+01:00, Europe/London
is_online	false
venue_name, address, city, country, lat, lon	Kraken, 182 Oxford Street, London, GB
organizer, organizer_url, organizer_followers	Django London, meetup.com/djangolondon, 3095 (Eventbrite)
price_min, price_max, currency, is_free	85.0, 85.0, GBP, false
sold_out, spots_remaining	false, 7 (Luma shows spots where the host does)
category_tags	["Health & Wellness", "Beauty"] (Eventbrite)
image, description	cover image, short summary
attendees	70 (Meetup RSVPs, Luma guest count)
search_city, search_keywords, scraped_at	what you asked for and when

Plus one free SUMMARY row per city: events delivered, requested, available, count per source, and a reason whenever a source returned nothing.

Use cases

• Event discovery apps and newsletters: every upcoming event in a city, refreshed daily.
• Venue and sponsor prospecting: organisers who run paid events, with follower counts.
• Market research: how many tech, music or fitness events a city hosts each month, and what they charge.
• Competitor tracking: keyword searches such as "startup" or "yoga" across three platforms at once.
• Travel content: "what's on this weekend in Lisbon" tables built from the this_weekend range.

How to use it

1. Type your cities, one per line ("London", or "London, CA" to pick the country per city), or paste an Eventbrite search link (eventbrite.com/d/
2. Optional: add keywords, pick a date range, turn off online events or keep only free ones. Keywords run each platform's own relevance search, so results relate to the keyword but do not all contain it; Luma has no keyword search and is filtered on the event name.
3. Set how many events you want per city.
4. Start the run. Download the dataset as JSON, CSV or Excel, or read it through the API.

What each source gives

Source	Per request	How far it goes	Filters honoured
Eventbrite	50 events	up to 1,000 per search (20 pages), paged	date range, keywords, free only
Meetup	20 to 50 events	one page per keyword (add keywords for more; the status line says when more exist)	keywords, date range (filtered by start date)
Luma	25 events	paged to the end of the city's list	keywords (matched on the name), date range (filtered by start date)

Cities without a Luma city page (smaller towns) show "Luma has no city page for it" in the summary. Online events are included unless you turn them off; the is_online column tells them apart.

Cost

Events delivered	Cost
100	about $0.30
1,000	about $3.00
10,000	about $30

A small fee per run plus a fee per event delivered (the table assumes $0.003 per event). An event listed on two platforms is counted once. A city or source that returns nothing adds nothing but the run fee.

Scheduling and API

Schedule it in the Apify console (Schedules > Create) or call it:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/oski~events-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"cities": ["London"], "keywords": ["jazz"], "dateRange": "this_month", "maxEventsPerCity": 200}'

If something looks wrong

Status line says	What it means	What to do
Input problem: Add at least one city	The cities field was empty	Add a city or paste a link
Input problem: "Date range" must be one of ...	A typed value is not one of the presets	Pick one from the list
Eventbrite refused the request	Eventbrite would not hand out a session from that exit	Run again; if it repeats, choose the RESIDENTIAL proxy group
Luma has no city page for it	Luma only has pages for about 90 cities	Nothing to do; Eventbrite and Meetup still cover the city
Meetup listed no events for it	Meetup found no events for that city or keyword	Check the country setting; try the city name Meetup uses
Fewer events than asked for: London (120 of 500, 179 found)	The sources ran out for that search	Add keywords to split a big city (Eventbrite answers 1,000 per search), or widen the date range
Eventbrite links of that kind cannot be fetched yet	A single-event or browse link was pasted	Paste a search link (eventbrite.com/d/...) or type the city
Luma listed events, but none matched your keywords	Luma is filtered on the event name	Drop the keyword for Luma, or run Luma without keywords in a second run

Frequently asked questions

Why is the same event in two rows? It is not, unless the names or start times differ between platforms. Exact name-and-start matches are kept once.

Can I filter by exact dates? The presets (today, tomorrow, this weekend, this week, next week, this month, next month) apply to all three sources: Eventbrite natively, Meetup and Luma by start date. For a custom window, run "All upcoming" and filter the start column.

Does it read ticket availability? Eventbrite rows carry min and max ticket price, the free flag and sold_out; Luma rows carry sold_out and spots_remaining where the host shows them.

Is it legal? It reads publicly listed events without logging in and stores no personal data about attendees.
