Ticketing that grows music
For music.
Most platforms leak booking fees out of music. Coral Tickets loops them back in. Every booking fee lifts another artist, and the whole scene rises together.
How it works
Buy the ticket. Back an artist. Same price.
That same fee paid on any ticketing site now grows music.
Buy a ticket.
Pay an ordinary booking charge, in line with other platforms. No more than usual.
Choose an artist.
After checkout, pick an artist on Coral to back.
The artist gets paid.
The contribution joins Coral's monthly payout, reaching the artist the same way corals do.
For organisers
Ticketing for music.
Our ethos
Less transactions. Less donations. More contributions.
Capitalism asks what's in it for me. Charity is giving to the Other. Coral represents the missing middle, where me becomes we.
What's in it for me. You pay, you take, our relationship ends there. Separation.
Our money sustains the artists and scenes we are part of. Connection.
A gift to others, who are not us. Separation.
What is Coral?
Music is more than product.
Coral is a community that backs music, because they value it as art.

Everything you’d want to ask.
No. Booking charges are an ordinary fee on top of the ticket price, in line with other ticketing platforms. Part of it is a contribution to an artist you choose: we simply keep less. The price of your night doesn't change.
Not necessarily. Artist contributions can only be made to eligible artists: artists who are currently backed within wearecoral and set up to receive monthly payouts. The event's performers may or may not meet the criteria. If you don't choose, we assign it at random to an eligible artist, ensuring the contribution continues to grow our collective music ecosystem.
Any eligible artist on wearecoral: one currently backed by members and set up to receive monthly payouts. Pick any of them, or leave it to us.
An artist is eligible once they're backed on wearecoral and set up to receive payouts. To start, create a coral that includes them. We'll let them know contributions are waiting. They finish a short payout setup, and from then on they receive ticket contributions too.
We'll randomly assign your contribution to an eligible artist.
You hold an active coral. Contributors who back artists monthly pay a reduced booking fee on tickets, and make no separate artist contribution: your coral contribution already covers that.
Monthly. Once the event has passed, your contribution joins Coral's artist payout alongside regular monthly contributions.
wearecoral is a community that backs music as art, not product. Members build a coral, their personal collection of artists they back with one monthly contribution, sustaining their work and the music we love. It provides artists with recurring income alongside streaming, touring, and physical sales.
Publishing is free. Buyers pay the booking charge on top of your ticket price, and you receive 100% of your ticket revenue. The artist contribution comes from the booking charge, never from your takings.
