Ticketmaster for craft fairs
Low-priced entry plus stallholder tickets — flat-fee or zero-fee models win clearly.
The numbers for this event type
Ticketmaster doesn't publish standard rates — typically 10–15% + order processing on the fan side. For craft fairs, that means the fee bill on 250 × £5 tickets is whatever your contract says; get it in writing before comparing.
Craft Fairs run on thin, often volunteer, margins — every pound of fee is visible. Fixed-pence fees are the enemy at this price point.
