Frequently asked questions

Funny Little Shows is ticketing, event management and website software built for the Australian live comedy industry. You add your artists, venues and gigs once, and Funny Little Shows publishes your website, sells the tickets and lets you scan them at the door with its iOS and Android apps. It’s made by Funny Little Enterprises in Canberra.

Comedy promoters of every size, from a monthly room in a pub to a multi-venue comedy festival, plus the venues they work with. It was built by people who have performed comedy and run gigs through to entire festivals, and it’s used by the Canberra Comedy Festival and Central West Comedy.

Yes. For any gig you can paste in a link to an external ticketing page instead, and punters buy there. You can mix Funny Little Shows ticketing and external ticketing across your gigs. Venues with their own box office also get a portal to action comp ticket requests.

Yes. Funny Little Shows publishes and hosts a fast, mobile-friendly website on your own domain, built from the same artist and gig details you use for ticketing. Gigs are listed and de-listed automatically. Hosting is $35 a month — see pricing.

Punters pay through a Stripe checkout, including Apple Pay, Google Pay and Link, and receive QR code tickets by email. At the door your staff scan the QR code from a phone or paper with the ticket scanning app, or look the booking up by name.

No. Your data is your data. Funny Little Shows doesn’t email your punters about other people’s events, and there’s no marketplace listing every promoter’s gigs to distract them. Punters who opt in at checkout are added to your marketing list, not ours.
