Tiered Ticket Pricing Calculator

Compare flat pricing vs tiered pricing for your event

Why use tiered ticket pricing?

Most dance schools and amateur theatre groups sell tickets at a single price. It keeps things simple, but it leaves money on the table. Parents and grandparents often want the best seats in the house and are happy to pay more for them. A tiered pricing structure lets you offer that option without raising prices for everyone.

This calculator shows you the difference between flat pricing and a three-tier setup: standard seats, premium seats with a better view, and front row seats at a higher price point. Adjust the percentages and price uplifts to match your venue layout and see how the numbers change.

Tiered pricing works particularly well for recitals and school performances where families want to see their child clearly. It also helps fill seats further back by keeping those tickets affordable. The result is often higher overall revenue and better audience satisfaction.
