When people think of in-demand tickets, festivals and concerts often come to mind. And while helping more fans attend festivals and concerts is a huge part of what we do at Lyte, we’re also putting tickets to culinary experiences, speaking engagements, and other great unexpected live events back in the hands of rights holders and away from the secondary market. Check out all of our event listings here.

How Lyte Works

Lyte’s platform makes it safe and easy for fans to find tickets to sought-after live events simply by joining our waiting list. Meanwhile, fans who already have tickets but can’t go can return them on the Lyte exchange. New, valid tickets are issued by the primary ticketer for the next fan in line, who receives them for a fair price.

Simple. There’s no risk of price gouging or fake tickets. It’s all part of our efforts to help rights holders regain control of the secondary market.

Lyte and our partners (ticketers, venues, promoters, and artists) are working together to save fans money and protect them from . Visit lyte.com to learn more about our technology platform.

About Lyte

Lyte makes it easier for fans to go to more live events. Founded in New York City and San Francisco by CEO Ant Taylor, our killer fan feature is returnability. In an industry where a “no refunds and no cancellations” policy is the standard, Lyte enables fans to return their event tickets, no questions asked, to the official point of purchase.

Lyte also provides a safe and official reservation booking system, offering fans who sign up a fair price for in-demand tickets. One hundred percent of the tickets bought and sold through Lyte are issued through our ticketing partners and delivered directly to fans. Lyte has delivered millions in fan savings — $1.8 million in 2018 alone. It’s only getting better from here, thanks to our growing partnerships with bands, venues, promoters, ticketers and festivals.

For the industry, we function as a full inventory management solution, including a private-label secondary market to optimize event yield for event producers. Visit lyte.com.
