Promote your events with the Humanitix music integration

Updated today

Boost the number of eyes on your Humanitix event by connecting with music apps such as Bandsintown and Spotify, and tap into hundreds of millions of engaged music fans.

By tagging the artists performing at your event, your event and event link will appear in their app profiles - and anywhere else these apps integrate with.

Users receive email and push notifications when their favourite artists are performing at your event nearby!

How the music integration works

The Humanitix music integration requires you to tag the performing artists at your event. Note: Tribute acts are not accepted. Artists must be physically present.

Tag your artists and get approved

  1. Navigate to the event information page of your event and scroll to discoverability

  2. Tag the artists performing at your Humanitix event by searching for their Spotify profile name

  3. Click request approval to get approved by the Humanitix team.
    ​You'll be notified once your account has been approved. If you see "Approved" there is nothing you need to do.

Your approval will be applied to your entire Humanitix account. You only need to request approval once.

If you do not see the performing artists section:

  • Make sure your event is set to public

  • Select an appropriate event category, such as "festival or performance"
