### How to scrape The Vendry with The Vendry Scraper
1. [Create a free Apify account](https://console.apify.com/sign-up) - it comes with monthly free credit.
2. Open **The Vendry Scraper** and pick **Event venues** or **Event vendors**.
3. Type one or more cities (`Austin, TX`, `New York, NY`, `London, United Kingdom`) or paste thevendry.com search links.
4. Optionally narrow it down: venue types, space types, guest count, keyword, price level - and set **Max rows**.
5. Click **Start**.
6. Download the rows as JSON, CSV or Excel, or open the **Contacts** and **Capacity & rooms** views in the dataset.
### β¬οΈ Input
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `searchType` | select | `venues` (default) or `vendors`. A pasted link decides this for itself. |
| `cities` | list | One city per line: `"Austin, TX"`, `"London, United Kingdom"`, `"Toronto, ON, Canada"`. |
| `startUrls` | list | thevendry.com search links (with any filters in them) or profile links (`/venue/287`, `/pro/3941`). |
| `venueTypes` | multi-select | Hotel, Restaurant, Event Space, Bar / Club, Museum / Gallery, Brewery / Distillery... (31 types). |
| `spaceTypes` | multi-select | Rooftop, Outdoor Space, Private Dining Room, Meeting Room, Auditorium, Restaurant Full Buyout, Event Space. |
| `vendorTypes` | multi-select | Caterer, Planning & Production, AV Rental & Production, Photography, Florals & Design, DJ... (65 categories). |
| `keyword` | text | The site's own keyword search, e.g. `rooftop`. |
| `radiusMiles` | number | Venues within N miles of each city's centre instead of the site's city area. |
| `minCapacity` / `maxCapacity` | number | Guest count range. |
| `minSquareFeet` | number | Minimum total event space. |
| `minGuestRooms` | number | Hotels with at least N guest rooms. |
| `priceLevels` | multi-select | The site's price tier, 1-4. |
| `keywords` / `excludeKeywords` | list | Keep / drop rows that mention these words (name, description, rooms, amenities). |
| `withEmailOnly`, `withPhoneOnly` | boolean | Only rows with that contact. |
| `claimedOnly`, `acceptingInquiriesOnly` | boolean | Only claimed profiles / profiles that take inquiries. |
| `ownership` | multi-select | Women-, veteran-, LGBTQ+-, Black-, Asian- or Latino-owned. |
| `includeDetails` | boolean | Default **on**: reads each profile for email, booking link, ownership, claimed status, press, brochures. |
| `includeSpaces` | boolean | Default **on**: one entry per room. |
| `monitorMode`, `monitorKey` | boolean, text | Only businesses not delivered by an earlier run of the same search. |
| `maxItems` | number | Rows for the whole run (default 100; 0 = no limit). |
| `maxItemsPerSearch` | number | Rows per city / link (0 = no limit). |
| `compact` | boolean | Core fields only. |
| `proxyConfiguration`, `maxConcurrency` | advanced | Not needed - the site answers without a proxy. |
Nothing is required: an empty input runs the demo search (`Austin, TX`, 100 rows).
#### Input JSON
```json
{
"cities": ["Austin, TX", "New York, NY"],
"venueTypes": ["restaurants", "event-spaces"],
"spaceTypes": ["rooftop"],
"minCapacity": 50,
"withEmailOnly": true,
"maxItems": 500
}
```
#### Paste a search link to keep every filter you set on the site
Set the filters on thevendry.com (type, guests, neighbourhood, space type, price) and copy the address bar, e.g.
`https://thevendry.com/venues/search/usa/ny/new-york/hotels?v=25&c1=200`. Every filter in the link is passed to the same
search the page runs. Vendor links (`/vendors/search/usa/ca/los-angeles/catering`) work the same way.
#### Use the city name the site uses
US cities take the two-letter state (`Portland, OR`); other cities take the country (`London, United Kingdom`,
`Berlin, Germany`). A city search covers the site's own city area - 30 miles around the centre for New York, Austin,
London and most cities - so suburbs are included; add `radiusMiles` (e.g. 5) for the centre only.
### β¬οΈ Output

```
#### Fields and how often they are filled
Measured on full runs on 2026-10-16: **Austin venues** (1,080 rows), **New York venues** (6,306 rows), **Austin vendors** (508 rows).
| Field | Austin venues | New York venues | Austin vendors |

Hotels make the capacity numbers look low: most hotels are listed from a hotel database with no rooms, while restaurants,
event spaces and bars carry their rooms (Austin: 1,557 of 2,332 rooms have a seated capacity). Ratings and reviews are
not in the data: The Vendry does not publish any.
### Use cases
- π― **Event-planning and DMC sales teams**: a list of every venue in a city that seats 100+, with the events email.
- π¨ **Hotel and venue sales**: competitor sets by neighbourhood, capacity and price level.
- π§βπ³ **Caterers, AV and rental companies**: venues whose catering is "All catering welcome" or that use preferred vendors.
- π **CRM enrichment**: match on Google place id or Yelp id and fill in capacity, rooms and contacts.
- πΊοΈ **Venue directories and booking sites**: seed a city with coordinates, rooms and photos.
- π **Market monitoring**: a weekly monitor run that returns only newly listed venues or vendors.
### How much does it cost to scrape The Vendry?
**$0.0027 per row** (per venue or vendor delivered). No start fee: a run that matches nothing costs nothing. Rows removed by
your filters, outside the searched area, already delivered in monitor mode, or duplicated across searches are not charged.
| Rows | Price |
|---|---|
| 10 | $0.027 |
| 100 | $0.27 |
| 1,000 | $2.70 |
| All of Austin (1,080 venues) | $2.92 |
| All of New York (6,306 venues) | $17.03 |
Set **Max rows** or a maximum charge per run to cap any run.
### Integrations, API, scheduling & MCP
- **Schedule** a weekly run with **monitor mode** on to get only new venues or vendors, and send them to Google Sheets,
Slack, a webhook or your CRM.
- **Make, Zapier, n8n**: use the Apify app / node with this actor's id.
- **API**: start runs and read the dataset with the [Apify API](https://apify.com/scrapersdelight/thevendry-scraper/api)
or the `apify-client` package for [Python](https://apify.com/scrapersdelight/thevendry-scraper/api/python) and
[JavaScript](https://apify.com/scrapersdelight/thevendry-scraper/api/javascript).
- **MCP**: AI agents can call it through the [Apify MCP server](https://apify.com/scrapersdelight/thevendry-scraper/api/mcp);
turn on `compact` for lighter rows.

### Limits & empty runs
- The site shows 24 venues per search to a signed-out visitor; the actor splits each search by venue type and then by map
area. Austin took 222 searches for 1,080 venues (70 s); New York 953 searches for 6,306 venues (about 7 minutes).
- A **city** covers the site's city radius (30 miles for the cities measured). The site's own city count leaves some
hotels out (New York: 635 hotels in its count, 938 hotels inside the 30 miles); the actor delivers every venue inside
the radius, so New York returns 6,306 rows against the site's 6,007. `RUN_SUMMARY` shows both numbers.
- More than 24 venues at one identical address cannot be told apart by map; the summary counts them (`unsplittable`, 0 in
the runs above).
- Vendors are paged by the site (24 per page, every page readable: Austin 508 of 508).
- An empty run means the search matched nothing (or every match was filtered out); nothing is charged and `RUN_SUMMARY`
says what was read and why rows were dropped.
### FAQ
#### How many venues can The Vendry Scraper get from one city?
All of them. Austin returned 1,080 of the site's 1,080 venues and New York 6,306 venues inside its 30-mile city area.
Set `maxItems: 0` for no limit.
#### Does The Vendry Scraper get emails?
Yes - the email each business publishes on its profile, on 70-81% of venues and 89% of vendors in the runs above.
`withEmailOnly` keeps only those rows. Turning `includeDetails` off skips the profile read and the email.
#### Can The Vendry Scraper find venues by capacity, type or neighbourhood?
Yes. Use `venueTypes`, `spaceTypes`, `minCapacity` / `maxCapacity`, `minSquareFeet`, `minGuestRooms`, `priceLevels`,
`keyword` - or set any filter on thevendry.com (neighbourhoods included) and paste the link.
#### Can I scrape event vendors (caterers, planners, AV) with The Vendry Scraper?
Yes: set `searchType` to `vendors` and pick `vendorTypes`, or paste a `/vendors/search/...` link.
#### How do I get only new venues with The Vendry Scraper?
Turn on `monitorMode` and schedule the run. Each run delivers only businesses that earlier runs of the same search did
not deliver; give the memory a name with `monitorKey` to keep it when you change other inputs.
#### Can I use The Vendry Scraper with the Apify API or Python?
Yes - start it with `apify-client` (Python or JavaScript) or plain HTTP and read the dataset. See the API tab.
#### Can AI agents use The Vendry Scraper through MCP?
Yes, through the Apify MCP server. `compact: true` returns only the core fields.
#### Do I need a The Vendry account, login or proxy?
No. The actor reads the public directory without signing in and without a proxy.
#### Why did my The Vendry Scraper run return no results?
The search matched nothing - check the city spelling (`Austin, TX`, not `Austin`) and loosen filters. The status
message and `RUN_SUMMARY` show the site's own count and what each filter removed. Nothing is charged for an empty run.
#### Is The Vendry Scraper affiliated with The Vendry?
No. This Actor is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by The Vendry or Groupize.

# Actor input Schema
## `searchType` (type: `string`):
Event venues (hotels, restaurants, event spaces, rooftops...) or event vendors (planners, caterers, AV, florists, photographers...). A pasted link decides this for itself.
## `cities` (type: `array`):
One city per line, as the site names it: "Austin, TX", "New York, NY", "London, United Kingdom", "Toronto, ON, Canada". A city search covers the site's own city area (30 miles around the centre for most cities).
## `startUrls` (type: `array`):
Search pages with their filters (e.g. https://thevendry.com/venues/search/usa/ny/new-york/hotels?v=25 or https://thevendry.com/vendors/search/usa/ca/los-angeles) or profile pages (https://thevendry.com/venue/287). A link's own filters win over the form.
## `venueTypes` (type: `array`):
Only these venue types (the site's own filter). Empty = every type.
## `spaceTypes` (type: `array`):
Only venues with one of these kinds of space, e.g. Rooftop or Private Dining Room. Empty = any.
## `vendorTypes` (type: `array`):
Vendor searches only: these vendor categories, e.g. Caterer, Photography. Empty = every category.
## `keyword` (type: `string`):
The site's own keyword search, e.g. "rooftop", "loft", "wedding".
## `radiusMiles` (type: `integer`):
Venues within this many miles of each city's centre instead of the site's city area, e.g. 5 for downtown only. Empty = the site's city area.
## `minCapacity` (type: `integer`):
Venues whose spaces hold at least this many guests (the site's capacity filter).
## `maxCapacity` (type: `integer`):
Venues whose spaces hold at most this many guests.
## `minSquareFeet` (type: `integer`):
Venues with at least this much total event space.
## `minGuestRooms` (type: `integer`):
Hotels with at least this many guest rooms (group stays).
## `priceLevels` (type: `array`):
The site's price tier for a venue, 1 (lowest) to 4 (highest). Most venues have none set, so this narrows a search a lot.
## `keywords` (type: `array`):
Keep a row only if its name, description, type, rooms, event uses or amenities mention one of these words, e.g. "rooftop", "wedding". Empty = keep all.
## `excludeKeywords` (type: `array`):
Drop a row that mentions any of these words, e.g. "hostel".
## `withEmailOnly` (type: `boolean`):
Only rows with a published email.
## `withPhoneOnly` (type: `boolean`):
Only rows with a published phone number.
## `claimedOnly` (type: `boolean`):
Only profiles the business has claimed on the site (managed by the venue or vendor).
## `acceptingInquiriesOnly` (type: `boolean`):
Only profiles that take inquiries through the site.
## `ownership` (type: `array`):
Only businesses that list one of these ownership flags on the site. Empty = any.
## `includeDetails` (type: `boolean`):
Read each profile for its email, booking link, ownership flags, claimed status, press mentions and brochures (one small request per row). Off = search data only: no email.
## `includeSpaces` (type: `boolean`):
Venues: one entry per room with seated / standing / theater / banquet / reception capacities, square feet, price, event uses and amenities.
## `monitorMode` (type: `boolean`):
Deliver only businesses not delivered by an earlier run of the same search (memory kept in a named key-value store). Pairs with a daily or weekly schedule.
## `monitorKey` (type: `string`):
Optional name for the monitor memory, e.g. "austin-rooftops". Empty = derived from the search, so a changed search starts fresh.
## `maxItems` (type: `integer`):
Most rows for the whole run (and your cost). 0 = no limit: a big city holds thousands of venues (New York ~6,300, Austin ~1,080).
## `maxItemsPerSearch` (type: `integer`):
Most rows from each city or link. 0 = no per-search limit.
## `compact` (type: `boolean`):
Core fields only (name, type, contacts, address, capacity, price level) - lighter for spreadsheets and AI/MCP pipelines.
## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):
Not needed: the site answers without a proxy. If it refuses, the run moves to a residential proxy by itself (within a small budget).
## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):
How many profile requests run at once.
