Introducing TryBooking: The go-to ticketing platform for schools and music services
19th September 2025
Trybooking is an event ticketing platform that can support your music service, school, or organisation as you organise concerts and other events for the upcoming year! As a Music Mark Industry Partner, Trybooking told us more about how they simplify selling tickets.
At the heart of every school or music service lies performance. Whether it’s the annual school production or a community ensemble bringing together families and friends. These moments on stage are often the highlight of the year.
Organising these types of events, however, is no easy task. From arranging rehearsals to co-ordinating staff and volunteers, it can be easy to forget about elements that will really help your event run smoothly.
That’s why choosing the right ticketing platform for your organisation matters. With the right system in place, you can save hours of admin time and reduce costs – all while creating a seamless experience for your audience.
For more than 10 years, TryBooking has been supporting schools, music services and art organisations all across the UK with a simple, affordable platform that makes selling tickets for your next show straightforward and stress-free.
From independent and state schools to local services, music festivals, and even radio stations, TryBooking has become a trusted partner for those looking to simplify the way they manage events.
Paul Cormie of the Borders Chamber Orchestra said:
“The concert was a great success. I’m so impressed with TryBooking, from the excellent help information, integration into our website, a QR code to put on posters, the professional appearance of it, Google and Apple wallet integration, the reports function and, most importantly, the fact that it works flawlessly. With no upfront fee to pay and a very reasonable small percentage of our takings we are very pleased with it. Just brilliant!”
No matter the size or type of event, the platform can be tailored to fit the organisers’ needs.
What makes this platform stand out is its balance of affordability, ease of use and tailored benefits that fit into the needs of any event organiser.
And the best part? There are no charges for free events, and all features are included as standard, making the platform accessible for everyone. Event organisers can enjoy a brilliant range of features, that can help simplify the entire ticketing process, such as:
- Support safeguarding: Using the TryBooking Scanning App, your team can scan tickets on the day, meaning you know who’s in the room.
- Collect attendee details: Use the custom form feature to ask ticket buyers the important questions, from dietary requirements to emergency contacts.
- Branded event pages: Create event pages that reflect your organisation’s identity and style.
Gary Edwards from Spanglish in the City says:
“I would like to say we loved the ‘ticketing scanner’. It was efficient, clear, and easy to use for the team & volunteers and for me to gain a quick glimpse. Much easier than the paper approach we used last time. So again, thank you!”
Beyond the technology, TryBooking knows exactly how to get under the skin of any event, meaning you get top of the line knowledge and experience when signing up. If you ever need help, the award-winning customer service team is always on hand to offer their support.
The platform speaks for itself, but the kind reviews and testimonials truly prove how dedicated the team at TryBooking are, providing a simple and stress-free ticketing process for their event organisers.
The Director of Music for Warminster School even said:
“TryBooking has streamlined and simplified our Concert Booking systems beyond recognition. Our parents love the easy-to-use formats and the TryBooking team offer us the best customer service around. Our school events are easy to book and as professional as the best Theatres and Concert Halls around.”
If you’re feeling stuck or unsure about how you can upgrade your ticketing process, the TryBooking team would be happy to help you out. We offer free online demos, tailored to your organisation and event, so you can visualise how your event would look like on the platform before setting it live!
If you prefer to try things out yourself, that’s no problem – there are no sign-up fees, contracts or subscriptions, so you can create an account whenever you want and test out the platform in your own time.
School productions, music services and local communities all share the same goal: bringing people together through music and performance, and TryBooking is there with you every step of the way.
