An Eventbrite and Weezevent alternative for free events
Eventbrite and Weezevent are ticketing platforms first: they sell tickets and control entry. LiveEvent sells nothing. It builds the full event website and handles the programme, free registration, check-in and audience engagement.
In short
For a free event, LiveEvent replaces a ticketing platform like Eventbrite or Weezevent and goes further: a full website under your name, the programme, QR code badges, phone check-in, networking and polls. For a paid event, the two work together: the ticketing platform sells, and its buyers become participants in LiveEvent.
LiveEvent is a good fit if…
- Your event is free and you want a real website, in your colours and on your own domain name.
- You have a programme across several rooms, with limited-seat workshops.
- You want the room to vote, to collect its questions or to stream the sessions.
- You run events for several clients and want to keep them separate.
Eventbrite or Weezevent will suit you better if…
- You sell tickets: LiveEvent takes no payments.
- You rely on a public marketplace, like Eventbrite’s, to help people discover your event.
- You need cashless payment on site, which Weezevent offers.
Other tools are described from their public websites, as checked in October 2026. Their offers change: check with them before you decide.
Frequently asked questions
- Can I use LiveEvent with Weezevent or Eventbrite?
- Yes. Once the ticketing platform is connected, each buyer becomes a participant in LiveEvent, receives a badge and gets access to the site, the programme and networking. Billetweb is supported too.
- Does LiveEvent take a commission on registrations?
- No. LiveEvent takes no payments, so there is nothing to take a commission on. The software is billed on a quote.
- Does check-in work with tickets sold elsewhere?
- Buyers from a connected ticketing platform receive a LiveEvent badge, and that badge is what gets scanned at the entrance.
