Hacker NewsThe re-launched site shows live resale price charts (using data from sites like StubHub, Vivid Seats, SeatGeek, etc) that update as often as every few minutes. You can see price history for the cheapest tickets ("Get In Price"), or for pre-defined zones (like Floor seats), or you can set up your own custom zone across any sections or rows (for example "Floor Center, Rows 1-10"). You can also set alerts for when prices go above or below whatever threshold you set.
Many of the larger events also include a forecast of where prices will go next. Those are based on years of historical data combined with the live data and other inputs (like sales data and a whole bunch of other variables…opponent, day of week, venue capacity, etc) passed through a model built in XGBoost. I'm slowly rolling out the forecast feature to more events as the models get refined and I'm confident in the accuracy for different event types/genres.
In addition to all the data for upcoming events, there are currently about 2.5 years of historical data live on the site. If there is sustained interest, I'll work on getting data all the way back to 2011 loaded in.
Here are a few examples:
[Upcoming Event] Paul McCartney next week: https://www.ticketdata.com/events/12435572
[Past Event] Kansas City Chiefs vs. Las Vegas Raiders (Monday Night) https://www.ticketdata.com/events/1174976
