About

Stop paying per-ticket fees to sell seats at your own event.

Live Event Seating is a WordPress plugin that turns your site into a reserved-seating ticket shop. Build your venue in a drag-and-drop editor, let guests pick their exact seat or table on an interactive map, and take payment through your existing WooCommerce checkout. You keep 100% of ticket revenue, with no commission, no per-ticket fee and no external platform holding your customer data.

What you can do with it

  • Build theatres, banquet halls, arenas and galas with seat rows, curved rows, round or rectangular tables, stages and freeform shapes

  • Sell individual seats, whole tables, or general admission areas on the same map

  • Set different price tiers (VIP, Standard, Economy) and let buyers filter by price

  • Prevent double bookings with real-time seat locking and a checkout countdown timer

  • Check guests in with QR codes, including an offline scanner, or from a central attendee dashboard with CSV export

  • Capture sold-out demand with a waitlist, and upsell food and drinks with seat add-ons

  • Add seating to The Events Calendar and Events Manager events, or use it with Gutenberg and Elementor

Who it's for
Event organizers, theatres, wedding and gala planners, conference teams, churches, schools, cinemas, and freelancers building ticketing sites for clients.

Pricing
A free Lite version is on WordPress.org. Paid plans start at $49.99/year with a 14-day money-back guarantee. There is also a $299 done-for-you venue setup.

Why I built it
Most seating tools are hosted platforms that take a cut of every ticket. I wanted organizers to own their sales, their data and their margin, on WordPress.
