In need of the best event apps to pull off your next planned gathering? We get it. Priorities are changing. Experiences, not commodities, are now the preferred way to spend money and energy. Folks would much rather go to a party or a popup event than invest in bulky objects like furniture. We’d rather rideshare on an as-needed basis than figure out where to park a vehicle — and avoid the maintenance expenses and the commitment of responsibility.
In other words, attending events is in, and buying objects is out.
As a result, the hospitality sector is growing exponentially, and event planners are keeping busy — just like event-goers. If you’re planning an event, you will need the best event apps to pull it off. And we can knock off one of your to-dos right here as well — the perfect event venue.

Eventbrite is one of the longer-standing event apps, though it initially began as simply a site to purchase tickets for concerts and other large-scale happenings in the past. Users can still use the app to find a local event to attend, but these days, hosts can list their events of whatever size and sell tickets through Eventbrite.
All types of events are listed, including concerts, workshops, and art openings. Eventbrite also helps hosts by offering free marketing and providing social media links. In addition, hosts can opt to pay for ads to boost sales. It also serves as a networking app — attendees can talk to one another through the platform and arrange to meet up, carpool, or plan events together.

Fever is an app for users to discover low-key events, secret happenings, and other trendy popups and things to do that they might not have otherwise known about. The event app is gaining traction in certain big-city markets, from Los Angeles and New York to London and Barcelona, with more than 12 million hits per week, primarily for purchasing tickets. Fever sponsors most events, so it’s not an app for only small-scale event hosts.
The app primarily focuses on concerts, DJ sets, and festivals, but with more than 10,000 events listed at any time, there’s bound to be something for every urbanite. Something that sets Fever apart from competitors is its loyalty club. It offers ticket discounts after a certain number of purchases. Fever also uses an algorithm to analyze a user’s specific tastes and preferences to provide personalized suggestions for the most relevant offers.
