Event Alert!

For inexpensive access to a wide range of live performance venues, add your name to the Event Alert! email list. They discount last-minute tickets to events and performances all over the Metroplex. All you have to do is send in your email to EventAlert@EventAlert.org and request to be added.

I continue to buy my season tickets to several different Venues even though Event Alert! tends to have tickets to those Venues. I want to support those local resources by being a season ticket holder. If something is really good, I have used Event Alert to go back!

How to use Event Alert! effectively:

1. After a while, you will see a pattern as to which venues are most likely to dispose of extra tickets with Event Alert. I went onto the Venue websites and put their events in my calendar in pencil with two question marks. Half the time, those events have shown up as being available, 2 or 3 days out. Because I had them in my calendar, I didn't book something else into that time slot, so I was able to take advantage of the ticket service.

2. When I have had out-of-town guests for the weekend, I begin looking for the Event Alert mailer about Wednesday or Thursday. Notices go out as they get tickets. They also send out a summary of what events they have tickets for. I just pick out the thing that my company is going to be most interested in seeing.
