Resident Advisor Events Scraper
Scrape electronic music events from Resident Advisor by city, artist, or venue, up to a million per run. Every event comes with its lineup, venue, date, and ticket link. No login or API key. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
Resident Advisor's official API is restricted and requires partnership approval. This Actor reads the public event listings directly, filtered by city ID or keyword search, and returns each match in one fixed schema. It is built for promoters, agents, and researchers who need structured RA data without manual copying.
| Who uses it | What they scrape Resident Advisor for |
|---|---|
| Talent buyers | Discovering which DJs are touring specific cities this month. |
| Event promoters | Monitoring competitor lineups and ticket availability in their region. |
| Music journalists | Tracking genre trends and emerging artists across global club scenes. |
| Artist managers | Finding venues that book similar acts for tour routing. |
What it does

- 📍 City area ID: Target a specific city using its RA area code, like 13 for London or 34 for New York.
- 🔍 Keyword search: Filter events by artist name, venue, or event title to narrow the feed.
- 📊 Structured output: Every event returns as a flat row with lineup, venue, date, and ticket link, ready for analysis.

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results?
Check that your area ID is correct. Try a well-known ID like 13 for London. Also, ensure your keyword query is not too restrictive. A typo in an artist name will return zero matches.
The run is taking a long time.
Lower the maxItems value. Collecting thousands of events requires fetching many pages, which takes time. Start with a small number to test your input.
Some events are missing the lineup.
Not every RA event listing includes a full lineup. The Actor returns whatever is publicly displayed on the event page.
I get an error about the area ID.
The area ID must be an integer. Do not include letters or the city name. Use the numeric code from the RA city page URL.
The output has duplicate events.
RA listings can sometimes show the same event across multiple queries. Use a deduplication tool or filter by event ID in your post-processing step.
FAQ
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is a Resident Advisor area ID? | It is the numeric code RA uses for each city. For example, 13 is London and 34 is New York. You can find other IDs by browsing ra.co and looking at the URL for the city page. |
| Can I scrape multiple cities in one run? | The Actor accepts one area ID per run. To collect events from several cities, run the Actor multiple times with different area IDs, or use a keyword query that spans locations. |
| Does this scraper need a Resident Advisor login? | No. It reads the public event pages that anyone can view without an account. |
| What data fields does each event row include? | Each row includes the event title, date, venue name, lineup artists, ticket link, and genre tags. The exact field list is visible in a sample output on the Actor's page. |
| Can I filter by date range? | The Actor collects events from the default listing order on RA. It does not have a built-in date-range filter, but you can set a maxItems limit and sort the results afterward. |
| How do I search for a specific artist? | Enter the artist name in the keyword query field. The Actor will return events where that name appears in the title or lineup. |
| Is this an official Resident Advisor API? | No, this is an unofficial scraper that reads the public website. It is not affiliated with Resident Advisor Ltd. |
| Can I get the promoter or organizer contact info? | The Actor returns the data visible on the public event page. Promoter contact details are not always present and are not a guaranteed field. |
| What export formats are supported? | You can export your dataset in CSV, JSON, Excel, XML, and several other formats from the Apify platform. |
| How many events can I scrape? | You set the maximum with the maxItems field, up to one million events per run. |
