How to buy event tickets in Kenya

Tickets on SoldOutAfrica are sold directly by the organizer, so the price on the listing is the price you pay. Open an event, pick a ticket type — early bird, regular, VIP, a table for a group — and enter the phone number the ticket should go to. Confirm the M-Pesa prompt, or pay by Airtel Money or card, and the QR code arrives by SMS and email straight away.

At the gate the organizer scans the code once and it is marked used, so a forwarded screenshot will not get a second person in. Early-bird tiers are usually the first to sell out, and prices step up as the date gets closer, which is why the sections above are sorted by date: the events at the top are the ones to decide on first.

Selling tickets for your event

Organizers publish an event with its ticket tiers and prices and can be on sale the same day. You get live sales figures, gate scanning on any phone, promo codes, an affiliate program that pays promoters per ticket, and settlement to M-Pesa or bank. There is no monthly fee — a commission per ticket sold, and nothing else. See how it works for organizers or compare us on pricing.
