As a venue, we would never use Brown Paper tickets again. They have over $ 900.00 of our community theater ticket sale monies and they are totally non responsive. How any venue is still working with them, I cannot understand. There are so many better options out there. Beware

Brown Paper Tickets is disorganized because the leadership is chaotic. Our own supervisors are coordinated, yet they expect employees to be coordinated with them. We often receive conflicting instructions, and our schedules are a mess! I don't think I've had a peaceful moment during my whole stay here.

If you're fed up with the Ticketmaster experience, you might be as delighted as I am with Brown Paper Tickets.

First of all, the per-ticket surcharge is tiny: only 3.5% plus 99 cents -- except that for the many free events, there's no service fee whatever. (You can easily search for free events and others that are heavily discounted.) And five percent of net sales go to a charity of the patron's choosing.

Tickets are refundable, can be resold, and can be sent to your phone. The site provides extensive event information, with maps. There's 24/7 toll-free customer service.

Instant tickets
May 14, 2023

The process of purchasing tickets online from this platform is user-friendly and more affordable than other similar options available on the web. I was pleased to receive my tickets within minutes through email after completing the purchase process.

They are scammers. Never buy tickets from this company! Promised a refund for the event cancellation. I have done everything in the right time, so they were lying that they will soon send my money back. But it is already 3 years past and now they are saying they are not gonna ever do it. DO NOT USE them for tickets!

We held a Halloween event in 2020 and had guests pay through BrownPaperTickets. Our guests paid over $1400 through the BPT platform. They have paid us absolutely nothing. We've sent email after email, they did not respond to any of them. They disconnected their phone service. We discovered a WA attorney general complaint against them requiring them to repay all owed funds within 7 months (November 2021). Here it is, August 2022, and still we've seen zip from them. Support emails just say "we're working on it" and there's no way to speak to anyone in person. DO NOT USE!

Don't work for Brown Paper Tickets! The leadership here is unreliable and unreasonable, and you'll only be stressed trying to reason with the managers. Most of the leaders here don't care about your well-being, and they're unwilling to listen to anything that you have to say. AVOID this company for your own good.

The payment method was seamless and efficient, with no delay in receiving my tickets via email. All I had to do was print them. Every detail, from seat selection to event information, is readily accessible. I'm definitely coming back for their services.

Without a doubt, this site will be my go-to for future event purchases. I'm eager to recommend it to others as well. The competitive pricing and extensive array of events are both aspects that I truly value.

Easy refunds
December 21, 2023

This was my first time buying tickets through Brown Paper Tickets. I had booked three seats for a concert, but unfortunately, it got postponed. When I reached out to their customer service via email, they promptly replied with details on how to process my refund.

Easy to use
March 8, 2023

The website is easy to use and I was able to find great seats for an upcoming show. I received my tickets immediately via email and found the whole process very smooth. They had a great selection of events in my area that I didn't even realize were going on, I'll be sure to check them out again.

Good experience

Excellent website for purchasing event tickets. The tickets arrived instantly in my inbox and were a fair price. I wish they offered tickets for every show, it would make things easier, not to mention cheaper.

Nice experience

The tickets I purchased here were good and cheaper compared to similar sites. This combination of hassle-free service and cost-effectiveness is something I would consider when buying tickets again. Highly recommended!
