# Ticketing for renaissance festivals

Multi-day themed festivals with recurring attendance.

Equaticket is flat-subscription event ticketing with no per-ticket platform fees. Card processing (Stripe, 2.9% + $0.30) applies on every platform, including Equaticket.

## Example scenario

4,000 tickets for one event at an average of $35, which is about 1,333 a month averaged over a year.

## What it costs on each platform

| Platform | Annual cost, card processing included |
| --- | --- |
| Eventbrite | $67,015 |
| Luma | $49,028 |
| TicketSpice | $36,871 |
| Ticket Tailor | $34,631 |
| CrowdWork | $37,031 |
| Equaticket Pro (pay monthly) | $23,303 |

Annual cost over twelve months at that volume. Rates verified October 2026; sources and method: https://equaticket.com/compare/fees.json

## Equaticket plan for this scenario

This volume lands on the Pro plan: $189/mo pay monthly (3-month minimum), $567 every 3 months, or $1,701 a year. It includes 10,500 paid tickets every 3 months.

Paid plans have a 3-month minimum, then cancel at the end of any month.

## Where Equaticket is not the fit

Equaticket has no reserved or assigned seating, no public event marketplace, and takes cards only through Stripe. See https://equaticket.com/llms.txt for the full list.
