When you’re preparing an event, you’re doing more than selling tickets. You’re inviting people into a space of connection, growth, and transformation. The platform you choose to host that invitation matters — not just for your bottom line, but for the kind of world we are building together.
‍

Eventbrite is the most recognized name in ticketing, serving every type of event imaginable around the globe. BrightStar, meanwhile, was created with a very different intention: to serve the global community of spiritual, wellness, and transformational gatherings.
‍

So which path supports you — and the movement you’re part of?
‍

Eventbrite: The Global Generalist
‍

Eventbrite has built its reputation by being everywhere. From food festivals to sporting events to tech conferences, it provides a flexible framework for nearly any kind of gathering.
‍

Where Eventbrite serves well:

• A familiar brand with broad recognition.
• A wide range of features and integrations.
• A “catch-all” option for mainstream events.
  ‍

Where challenges arise:

• Events can easily disappear into the crowd, with little organic discoverability.
• Marketing support is mostly self-directed.
• Fees often climb higher than expected.
• The overall experience feels functional, but transactional.
  ‍

BrightStar: A Conscious Marketplace
‍

BrightStar was created with a different vision. For more than a decade, we’ve walked alongside organizers of sacred music concerts, retreats, workshops, and transformational gatherings. Our purpose is simple: to uplift events that awaken humanity.
‍

What makes BrightStar unique isn’t only technology — it’s the way we hold it. We treat events as sacred gatherings, not transactions. From our messaging to our support, everything is guided by conscious communication. We want your attendees to feel welcomed from the very first click.
‍

Where BrightStar shines:

• A Curated Audience: Over 350,000 people already seeking conscious, spiritual, and wellness events.
• Built-In Marketing Support: Retargeting, geo-targeting, and thoughtful outreach designed for your niche.
• Affiliate Program Included: Invite your community to help promote and share in the success.
• Abandoned Cart Recovery: Gentle reminders that bring people back when life pulls them away.
• Transparent Pricing:
  • Basic Tier: Always free, for community and smaller events.
  • Standard Tier: About half the cost of Eventbrite — so you keep more of your revenue.
• Conscious Communication: Every interaction reflects our ethos of respect, care, and community.
• Human Support: Real people, ready to help, walking the path with you.

More Than Features: A Vote for the World You Want
‍

When you choose a ticketing platform, you’re also choosing what kind of ecosystem you want to support.
‍

Eventbrite is built for the masses — efficient, global, and transactional.
‍

BrightStar is built for us — a community that believes in events as catalysts for awakening. Each ticket sold here is more than a transaction: it’s a vote for the infrastructure that supports our movement.
‍

Together, united, we keep this fabric strong.
‍

Final Thoughts
‍

The platform you choose will shape not only your sales but your participants’ experience — and the future of the conscious event space itself.
‍

If you’re hosting a mainstream event, Eventbrite may provide the reach you need.
‍

But if your work is rooted in spirituality, healing, or transformation, BrightStar was created for you. We don’t just process tickets — we strengthen the fabric of a movement.
