Goal: Your festival runs Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Attendees should be able to buy tickets for the days they want, and you want to track each day separately.

​
How multi-day events work

Each day is its own session, and every ticket belongs to one session. A Friday ticket is a Friday ticket. This means:
  • Each day has its own capacity, prices, and sale windows.
  • Ticket Management groups the table by session, and you can filter by Session.
  • The Ticket Report and Complimentary Tickets can also be filtered by session.
Sessions and their tickets are set up with your event. If you need another day or a new ticket type, contact your PLVR representative. This portal then lets you manage them.

​
The example

Each day is sold and counted on its own, so Saturday selling out does not affect Friday.

​
Review each day

1

Open Ticket Management

Go to Ticket Management. With several sessions, a table appears for each, and a Session filter lets you focus on one.
2

Check each session's tickets

For each day, confirm Price, Total, and sale dates. Remember that Name and Price lock after the first sale.
3

Set purchase limits

Use Limit Qty per Order and Limit Qty per User to stop a single buyer from taking too many tickets for a popular day.
4

Turn days on or off

Use the Status dropdown to keep a day Inactive until you are ready to announce it.

​
Add tiers to each day

Want Early Bird pricing for every day? Build a release chain for one session, then copy it:
1

Build the chain on one session

Create and fill the chain for Friday’s tiers, such as Early Bird then Day Pass.
2

Copy it

Select Copy to… on the chain card, then tick the other sessions.
3

Review the matches

The portal matches tiers by name. If your tickets are named the same on each day (for example “Early Bird” in every session), they match automatically. Otherwise, choose the right ticket for each tier, or Don’t copy this tier.
4

Turn Auto-release on for each copy

Copied chains start paused. Review the copies (and fix any sales end times the portal flags), then switch Auto-release on in each session.
Use consistent ticket names across days, such as “Early Bird” and “Day Pass”, so copying and reporting stay simple.

​
What about a full-festival pass?

The portal manages tickets inside each session. A ticket that is valid across all days is not something you build in this portal today. If you need a pass for the whole festival, talk to your PLVR representative about how to set it up for your event. For groups that want several tickets at once, see Group packages.

​
Track and operate

  • In the Ticket Report, choose a Session to see only that day’s sales, or export it to CSV.
  • When comping artists or press, choose the Session in the comp form so each guest gets a ticket for the right day. See Comping guests.
  • Promo codes can apply to All ticket types or to one ticket in one session, so you can discount only a slow day. See Discount campaigns.
