What Fever does

Fever operates a digital-first live-entertainment discovery and ticketing platform accessible via feverup.com and a top-rated iOS/Android app (4.8/5 on the App Store). The platform aggregates more than 150,000 curated experiences across over 200 major cities and 30+ countries (40+ post-Dice), spanning music, sports, culture, pop-ups, and immersive exhibitions, with 24/7 customer support in 11 languages. Underlying technology comprises a multilingual web and mobile marketplace, recommendation and booking flows, partner-facing portals (Fever Zone, 'List your event'), and integration with sports ticketing ecosystems for properties such as Formula 1, SailGP, FC Barcelona, Real Madrid, Chelsea FC, Baller League, E1, and Querétaro FC. Fever also owns and curates original experience IP — notably Candlelight Concerts (100+ cities), Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience, DroneArt Show: Harry Potter (co-produced with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Experiences), Bridgerton Candlelight Concerts (Netflix), Light Cycles (Moment Factory), and Authentic Flamenco — many of which tour across multiple markets.

Fever's business model combines four revenue streams: (1) transaction-fee commissions on ticketing through the consumer marketplace; (2) brand partnerships and sponsorships monetized through Team Playmaker and Fever's in-house brand partnerships team (recognized with the 2026 Iconoclastic Agency Award); (3) multi-year white-label and exclusive ticketing provider contracts with sports leagues, clubs, and entertainment IP holders (managed services); and (4) corporate sales via Fever for Business, Fever Pass, and gift cards. The June 2025 acquisition of Dice added a London-based music ticketing app with 10M+ monthly active fans that continues to operate independently, extending Fever's reach to approximately 300 million individuals across more than 40 countries. Pricing is not publicly disclosed at the platform level; individual experience ticket prices are set by organizers, and no subscription tiers are advertised. Fever is privately held (last reported valuation $1.8B after a January 2023 Goldman Sachs-led round), has raised over $500M cumulatively since 2014, and has signaled intent toward a future IPO.

Core offering

Fever operates a live-entertainment discovery and ticketing marketplace aggregating 150,000+ curated experiences across music, sports, culture, and pop-ups in 200+ major cities and 30+ countries. The company earns transaction commissions on ticket sales via its web platform (feverup.com in 30+ languages) and mobile apps, operates proprietary experience IP including Candlelight Concerts, Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience, and DroneArt Show: Harry Potter, and provides white-label and exclusive ticketing infrastructure to major sports properties including Formula 1, SailGP, FC Barcelona, Real Madrid, Chelsea FC, Baller League, and E1.

Product overview

Fever operates a unified live-entertainment discovery and ticketing platform rather than a fragmented catalog of standalone products. The Fever Platform (feverup.com) and Fever mobile app serve as the central consumer surface, hosting more than 150,000 curated experiences across 200+ cities and 30+ countries, while Fever Zone (partners.feverup.com) and the Fever for Business / Fever Pass B2B suite extend the same platform to event organizers and corporate buyers. On top of this core platform, Fever curates flagship experience franchises — notably Candlelight Concerts (including the Bridgerton-licensed sub-product), Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience, DroneArt Show: Harry Potter (co-produced with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Experiences), Light Cycles (with Moment Factory), Harry Potter: A Forbidden Forest Experience, and Authentic Flamenco — many of which are co-presented with major entertainment rights holders and tour across multiple markets. The acquisition of DICE in June 2025 added a music-discovery ticketing app that continues operating independently while extending Fever's ticketing and audience reach. Fever's sports business is largely commercial-partnership-driven (Chelsea FC, FC Barcelona, SailGP, E1, Formula 1, Baller League, Primavera Sound, Querétaro F.C., FC Badalona Women), with Fever positioned as the exclusive or principal ticketing provider for each property rather than as a separate product line.

Broad incumbents

• Viator: Tripadvisor-owned tours and experiences marketplace with deep SEO authority and a global inventory of attractions. Comparable to Fever's tourism/attractions category and complementary to Fever's cultural-experience supply, with broader but less curated offerings.
• Airbnb Experiences: Experiences marketplace operated by Airbnb as an extension of its accommodations platform. Competes with Fever for consumer experience-discovery demand and uses a host-led supply model; comparable in experience-economy positioning and global reach.
• Ticketmaster: Dominant primary ticketing incumbent owned by Live Nation Entertainment, with structural venue and league partnerships across music and sports. The primary competitor to Fever's white-label sports ticketing business (F1, FC Barcelona, Chelsea) given its incumbent status and bundled marketing rights.
• AXS: AEG-owned primary ticketing platform serving sports teams, venues, and concerts. Direct competitor to Fever's white-label sports ticketing deals (F1, FC Barcelona) given its entrenched league/venue relationships and integrated AEG venue stack.

Direct peers

• GetYourGuide: Leading OTA for tours, attractions, and experiences, with strong supplier relationships and a curated inventory across 100+ countries. Comparable to Fever in cultural-experience discovery but with deeper OTA distribution and a Berlin-based engineering footprint.
• Headout: Mobile-first marketplace for tours, attractions, and local experiences across major global cities. Directly comparable to Fever's consumer marketplace motion, geographic footprint, and AOV profile, with similar emphasis on curated last-minute bookings.
• TodayTix: Mobile-first theater and live entertainment ticketing app operating across the US, UK, and other major markets. Comparable to Fever's mobile-led, last-minute booking motion and curated entertainment focus, with a narrower category emphasis on theater.
• Eventbrite: Publicly traded live-events marketplace connecting consumers with concerts, festivals, and local experiences. Closest pure-play peer to Fever's consumer marketplace and discovery motion, though Eventbrite is more SMB/self-serve oriented and lacks Fever's exclusive sports partnerships and owned IP.
• Klook: Asia-headquartered experiences and attractions booking platform with global expansion. Comparable to Fever in marketplace scale, mobile-first booking, and curated experience inventory, though with stronger Asia-Pacific penetration and travel-OTA synergies.

Regional players

• See Tickets: European-focused primary ticketing platform serving festivals, concerts, and live events across the UK and continental Europe. Comparable to Fever's ticketing infrastructure and event-organizer partnerships, though concentrated in Europe where it overlaps directly with Fever's home market.
