Download a QR code for your event page

You can download a QR code for your event page, giving buyers a quick way to access your event. Add it to your print and promotional media or on posters at your event entry for easy on-the-day ticket sales.
Buyers scanning the QR code are taken straight to your event page.

To download a QR code for your Humanitix event

Note: To download a QR code, your event must be published

  1. Manage your event via the events tab

  2. Click the share button in the top right menu bar

  3. Click download QR

  4. Select from two QR code options:
    ​

    1. For the event page
      Takes buyers to the primary event page to view all event information
      ​Ideal for: ​Advertising the event and want to communicate any event information
      ​

    2. For the select tickets page
      Takes buyers to the secondary ticket selection page, where they can immediately select and purchase tickets

      Ideal for: Letting buyers purchase tickets quickly, such as at the box office on the day or where you've already provided all event information
      ​

The QR code is linked to your exact event URL

Changing your event page URL means any previously downloaded QR code won't work.

Commonly asked questions

How can I locate my downloaded QR code?

If you click "Download" for a QR code and cannot find the file, it is likely saved to your browser’s default download location. Here’s how to locate it:

  1. Check your browser’s download history:

    • Open the download list in your browser.

    • Use the "Show in folder" option (or click the folder icon) to open the file’s location.

  2. Search common folders:

    • Look in folders like Downloads, Documents, or Pictures.

  3. Use your system’s search function:

    • Search for terms like "QR" or the expected file type (e.g., PNG or JPG).

  4. Redownload the QR code:

    • Open the browser’s download list immediately to see where it saved.

If I change my event after publishing, will my Humanitix-generated event QR code change?

The QR code will remain the same unless you edit the event URL via the event information page. No other changes to your event, including changes to ticket types, page content, etc will affect your event page URL.

If the event URL is changed, the original QR code will no longer link to the live event. Once the new URL is saved, generate a new QR code by following the steps above.

I can't find the QR code on the overview page

If no share event appears on the event overview page, then your event has not been published yet. QR codes are only available for download for published events.

Can I create a QR code for a private event?

Yes. You can still publish an event set to private and download a QR code.

Adjust your event's privacy on the event information page.
