What is Event Ticket Maker?

Event Ticket Maker lets you design professional-looking admission tickets for concerts, conferences, parties, and other events. Customize colors, text, and layout, then download as an image or PDF — completely free and private.

The canvas builds a stub-style ticket sized for standard 4×9 inch print runs, with eight theme colors that hold up on home printers and pro stock. Numbered ticket fields make sequential printing straightforward, and the live preview reflects every change before you export to PNG for digital sharing or PDF for a print shop.

How to use

  1. Step 1 — Enter event details: name, date, time, venue, and seat or ticket number.
  2. Step 2 — Pick a color theme and customize the ticket layout with your preferred fonts and accents.
  3. Step 3 — Preview the ticket and download it as a PNG image or PDF ready for printing.

When to use

  • Selling tickets to a small concert, fundraiser, or community theater run without paid platforms.
  • Issuing numbered raffle stubs for a school auction or charity event.
  • Mocking up VIP passes or laminated badges for a private launch party.

Result

Designing tickets for a fundraiser gala: set the event name to 'Starlight Charity Gala', date '2026-04-15', venue 'Grand Ballroom', ticket #001, choose a navy-gold theme, and download a print-ready PDF.

FAQ

Will the downloaded ticket print at the right size?
The canvas exports at 300 DPI sized for the standard 4×9 inch perforated stub. Send the PDF straight to a print shop without resizing, or fit two per Letter/A4 page on a home printer with normal margins.
Can I generate a numbered batch (tickets 001 through 200) at once?
Not in a single click. Change the Ticket # field, hit download, and repeat. For larger runs, a mail-merge workflow in Word or Pages pulling from a CSV of ticket numbers is usually faster than custom batch software.
Can I add a QR code for entry scanning?
Yes. Turn on the QR code switch and a scannable code lands on the ticket stub. Leave the link field blank to encode the ticket number, or paste a check-in URL to encode that instead. The code is drawn straight onto the canvas, so it stays sharp in both the PNG and PDF export.
Why does my logo look fuzzy on the printed ticket?
Small raster logos pixelate when scaled up to 300 DPI print size. Use a vector source (SVG, PDF) or a PNG at least 1200 px wide. The same applies to event photos used as backgrounds.
Can two tickets share the same number by accident?
Yes — there's no duplicate-check built in, so you're responsible for tracking which numbers you've used. A simple spreadsheet listing ticket number, buyer name, and date issued prevents the problem at the door.
