Coming soon to Squad Pro

TicketSquad Communities — for the trusted circle you keep going to events with.

One umbrella for the people you keep going to gigs with. No invite-link to send every time; ready when the next sale lands.

The shape of it

Today, every event in TicketSquad stands alone — you build a squad, share an invite link, and start over for the next event. With Communities, the events sit inside one shared squad, and members flow into whichever ones suit them.

What is a Squad Community?

A Squad Community is a larger group of people who regularly go to events together — not every member every time, but a level of trust where you can say: “these people are always invited, if they want to come there’s no barrier to entry.”

Why it matters

One umbrella, many events

A community sits above events. The same crew flows from one ticket attempt to the next without anyone having to recreate the squad each time.

No invite-link juggling

Members of a community self-add to community-scoped events. No invite link to share. No "wait, who got the link?" moments before sale day.

Persistent group identity

Your music crew is more than any single ticket attempt. Communities carry between events, so the group stays the group even when the lineup of who's coming changes.

Familiar from events, levelled up

Everything you set up per-event today, also available at the squad level. The shape will feel familiar — community-wide chats, a persistent member list, an easy add-an-event button — like the WhatsApp communities you might already be in, but tied to actual ticket sales.

  • One invite link, growing crew

    The invite-link pattern you know from events today, but at the community level. New mates join the community once and self-add to whichever events suit them.

  • Community chat links

    WhatsApp, Discord, Signal, or Telegram links for the whole crew — alongside the per-event ones you already use today.

  • Shared profile details

    Clashfinder IDs, registration numbers, dietary preferences — logged once at the community level, visible across every event. No re-collecting on each sale day.

  • Shared circles with privacy in mind

    Only ever share data with people you share events or communities with. General info follows you to any circle you’re in; event- or community-specific data stays inside its own.

  • Personalisation

    Community avatar, cover image, markdown welcome notes. Every community feels like the squad it is.

  • Community Coordinators

    Have as many Community Coordinators as you like alongside the owner — they can create new events in the community, edit details, and share the load so nothing bottlenecks on one person.

  • Be in as many as you like

    You're not limited to one Community. Just like the WhatsApp ones, you can be a member of as many as your crews invite you into — festival mates here, season-ticket lads there, theatre subscribers, supper club. One profile, many circles.

What it might look like

A rough sketch of how a Squad Community will land in the app — the row-list shape will feel familiar if you’re already in any of the music-events WhatsApp communities floating around. Real design will evolve, but the shape and rhythm are locked in.

Preview only — not the live app. Real names and counts will be your own.

Built for music crews first

We’re launching Communities around the kind of group we know best — live music squads. Two shapes we had in mind while building it:

The festival fan club

A loose-knit Glasto crew of 18 people. Most years 10 to 14 of them go — but the squad has been doing it together for a decade. A Community keeps them ready for every sale without anyone playing invite-chase.

The regular concert-going circle

Sarah's gig mates. They split into smaller groups for any one show — six going to see Bicep for Ben's birthday, three for a midweek headline, ten when it's outdoors. The Community is the trusted pool; each community member picks which events to join.

The same pattern fits anything you go to with the same people regularly — sports season-tickets, away-days, theatre subscriptions, comedy circuits, supper clubs. As TicketSquad grows, Communities will follow you to those events too. We’re launching with the music scene we know best — known events, sale-day strategies, and suggested data fields tuned for it. You can use TicketSquad for any other event type from day one too, just with a bit more manual setup; built-in support for sports, theatre, and beyond will land in future releases.

Free to be in. Pro to run.

Same pattern as TicketSquad events today — the people you bring along never pay; only the regulars who keep the crew together upgrade.

Members — free, always

Joining a Community is free and stays free, just like joining an event today. You’re in as many Communities as your crews invite you into. Members never pay.

Owners & Coordinators — Squad Pro

Owning a Community, or sitting alongside as a Community Coordinator, is a Squad Pro perk. The headline feature of the top tier — for the regulars who keep the crew together across many events.

A few things people ask

The questions we’ve already heard from early adopters thinking about Communities.

Do my mates need a TicketSquad account to be in my Community?

Yes — Communities live inside TicketSquad, so members sign up before joining yours. Sign-up is free, stays free for members forever, and is the same one-tap join you already know from event invites today.

Will my Community show up publicly anywhere?

No. The only people who can see your Community — its events, its members, its announcements — are the people you’ve invited in. There’s no public directory and no way for the wider internet to land on it.

What happens if the owner steps away?

Ownership transfers cleanly to a Community Coordinator, so the crew keeps moving. This is why we recommend assigning a few Coordinators alongside the owner — especially for larger Communities. The load is shared, and there’s always someone with the keys.

Is this just another social network?

No. We focus on three things, full stop: getting ready, getting tickets, getting there together with everything you need. Communities are private crews you opt into. We’re not building a way for strangers to find your group, nor are we harvesting your social graph or event data. It’s your Community, your events, your Squad
