The private ticket club, explained
What is a private ticket club?
What a private ticket club is, how it differs from discount sites, and why producers trust them with seats the public never sees.
Membership from £5 a year — or £12.99 for life
A private ticket club is a membership community that fills unsold seats at live events. Producers release spare capacity privately to the club; members book seats for a small admin fee instead of paying full ticket prices.
It's the discretion that makes the model work. Because releases never appear publicly, producers protect their pricing and brand — which is exactly why they're willing to release their best spare seats to clubs like My Box Office.
01 — The model
How a private ticket club works
- Producers privately release unsold seats to the club, subject to availability
- Members are notified by email or text — often on the day of the event
- Tickets are booked first come, first served for a small admin fee
- Members follow simple etiquette rules that keep the releases invisible at the venue
02 — Since 2011
My Box Office — the UK's trusted club
My Box Office has connected audiences with live entertainment since 2011 — over 42,000 events delivered to members, with more than 600 producers and venues supported across London and the UK.
Members get access to theatre, concerts, comedy, family shows, dance, film screenings, cultural events, sport, TV recordings — plus MBO Live, the members' marketplace for exclusive offers and skills swaps.
Two simple tiers, no hidden fees
Once you're a member, most tickets are complimentary — you only pay a nominal admin fee per booking to cover the service's running costs.
