DDD Open

What DDD Open does

DDD Open is a small, Italy-based non-profit organization founded in 2021, with a Milan footprint and a five-person team. The available source data, however, is aggregated from the Eventbrite platform, which is the product through which DDD Open's events (such as the Verona 'DDD Open Space 2025') are listed and ticketed. The Eventbrite platform is a global cloud-based event creation, ticketing, registration, and attendee management service operating across web, iOS, and Android, with a documented API/developer platform and an App Marketplace for third-party integrations.

The underlying technology combines event page builders, integrated payment processing (Eventbrite Payments plus third-party processors), QR-code and RFID entry management, reserved seating, timed-entry ticketing, and contactless payments. Specialized verticals include Eventbrite Music (music venues and promoters), Eventbrite Venue (venue management), Eventbrite Communities (community events), and Eventbrite Spectrum (a comprehensive event management toolkit). Social features such as Eventbrite Friends enable attendees to discover events through their network. The platform is localized across 28+ countries spanning North America, Europe, LATAM, and Asia Pacific, with legal entities in the US (Delaware), Ireland, and the UK, and is GDPR, CCPA, and PCI-DSS compliant.

Commercial dynamics are anchored on a transaction-fee/take-rate revenue model, supplemented by Eventbrite Ads (paid promotion), email marketing tools, and payment processing fees. Distribution is primarily self-serve / PLG through the website and mobile apps, with a dedicated enterprise sales team for larger venues and organizations. Customer segmentation is vertical-driven — primary verticals are Music, Corporate Events, and Nonprofits, with secondary verticals in Performing/Visual Arts, Food & Drink, Health/Fitness, Social/Party, and Virtual Events. The platform has acquired and retained multiple ticketing brands (Ticketfly, Ticketea, Lanyrd, Rally, nvite) as wholly-owned subsidiaries under the Eventbrite umbrella.

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights6 records

Emerging players

• Splash: Event marketing platform offering branded event pages, registration, and ticketing for marketers and brands. Comparable registration and ticketing functionality to Eventbrite, targeting a more design-conscious organizer base.
• Bizzabo: Event experience platform serving B2B conferences and corporate events with registration, ticketing, and engagement tools. Overlaps with Eventbrite's enterprise offerings but specializes in larger, more complex event programs.
• Tixr: Modern ticketing platform serving live entertainment venues, festivals, and promoters with consumer-facing features and reserved seating. Directly comparable to Eventbrite's music and venue verticals with D2C positioning.

Direct peers

• Dice: Music-focused event discovery and ticketing platform operating a similar marketplace model targeting concerts, festivals, and club nights. Comparable to Eventbrite Music with a curated, mobile-first attendee experience in the same primary vertical.
• StubHub: Major ticketing marketplace (now part of Viagogo) for live events with comparable transaction-fee economics. While focused on secondary/resale ticketing, it competes for the same attendee audience and organizer relationships.
• Hopin: Virtual and hybrid event platform offering registration, ticketing, and event production tooling. Comparable to Eventbrite's virtual events segment with similar SaaS-style offerings for organizers running online experiences.
• Ticketmaster (Live Nation Entertainment): Largest event ticketing platform globally and Eventbrite's most direct competitor. Ticketmaster serves similar organizers and attendees with comparable transaction-fee economics, but holds exclusive contracts with major venues that Eventbrite largely cannot access.
• Meetup: Community-driven event platform connecting interest-based groups with local in-person and online gatherings. Comparable two-sided marketplace model for organizers and attendees, particularly in the social/community event segment.
• Cvent: Enterprise event management platform serving corporate conferences, meetings, and trade shows. Overlaps with Eventbrite's Corporate Events segment on registration, ticketing, and attendee management, but skews upmarket to enterprise buyers.
