Worst music app in industry. I shouldn’t have to answer a dozen questions about my location and favorite bands and genres and habits to buy a concert ticket or have to do that and verify my email and decide just to view some bands tour dates. Stop it. Ask one question the first time around about whether or not we want to answer those questions. If someone does that’s great, if not leave them alone unless they say otherwise. It’s annoying. There are small acts that use your platform losing out on sales because people don’t want to be bothered with this all the time. It’s just an absolutely horrible site that does way more to hinder ease of seeing bands than improve the live music experience. It’s a never ending headache every time I am directed there.

Keeps me in “the Loop”. Living in a Metropolitan area is great; especially if you enjoy live entertainment, right? Well, daily life moves fast and before you know it, you lose track of a lot of great live shows that blow through town. Then, I gotta hear about what a great show I missed from someone’s girlfriend who just happened to be at the venue and blah, bl-blah, bl-blah. But with Bandsintown I stay in “the Loop” when it comes to hearing about great bands coming to town! By accessing the music on my phone app, Bandsintown tags artists I like; genres I prefer, and venues I favor and immediately notifies me of upcoming shows I won’t want to miss. These days, my family and I see about two-dozen live shows a year from epic bands!! Accolades go out to Bandsintown! Keep up the great work! - Dr. Robert

Used to be better. Had the app for over 5 years. They seem to be losing their way a bit. I find it weird that when you follow an artist and can see they’re playing a festival, you’re not able to click on the name of a festival and see the whole lineup or any info about it. The addition of festival lineups and global music events that are worth traveling to would add a lot of value. I want that ‘omg I have to go’ feeling. The timeline idea is good in theory except that most artists really don’t use the platform so it’s kind of pointless until they do. Apparently the customer service on the artists end is pretty bad which may explain why they’re not really using what should be a great platform to connect with fans. Would love to see them turn it around, but judging by emails focused on promoting new artists, they seem more preoccupied with acting like a hipster record label. For me, more value would come from it functioning as an informational and social platform getting people hyped about music events.

Completely unusable, absolute garbage. Forces you to sign in or enter location and select bands to interact with the app at all. What’s worse is if you do sign in it spams you with notifications relentlessly no matter what notification settings you choose. The only way to make it stop is to turn off notifications for the entire app in iOS. If you must use Bands In Town just use the website instead and save yourself the frustration and wasted time of downloading this dumpster fire of an app. Better yet, don’t use a service that doesn’t value their users in any way whatsoever and actively seems to hate their users and insist on torturing them into not using their product. If that was their goal, then we’ll done! I applaud them for making such an effective means of forcing me to never want to interact with their products ever again! The developers, or the asinine upper management that dictated these design decisions, should be ashamed of themselves and be fired.

Wish I could track multiple cities. Wish I could switch between cities a little easier—like I do with my weather app. I travel to different cities and countries and would like notifications of when my favorite artists are going to be in, say, Vegas or LA or Chicago. Even though I don’t live in those cities, I might like to plan a trip around my favorite artists. Too often I am taking a look at a favorite artist and notice that they were performing in a completely different region and I could have attended. Don’t have enough time to go through each artist’s concert dates for all the cities I am interested in. Addressing this would make a great app even better!

This solves a big problem. My tastes are pretty specific. There are quite a few artists that I like in various a genres, but it’s pretty rare that any of them actually come to my town to play. That means when I look at the weekly local listings, there’s a terrible signal-to-noise ratio. It’s like sifting for gold. It’s way easier to just track the artists. And BandsInTown tracks everyone. (Cue Gary Oldman shouting “EVERYONE!!!!”) That means my FOMO is gone. If a band I like comes to town, I’ll know. Period. It’s a solved problem, a non-issue. It’s an added bonus that through the app I can ask the artists to come play here.

It’s good for getting tickets to go to the concert. It’s good for when you are looking for a concert to go to and it gives you places/hotels you can stay in, what I have noticed is that many artist play @ the forum. This app also gives you options for example if you are interested in going you can press “interested” button and if you are for sure going you can press the “going” button there is also a “ticket” button to look at the available seats there are. It gives different seating options for many different prices. For example I am interested in going to the Niall Horan concert at the Forum and it gave me the date, time and place. I could also recommend that artist to do a concert where I want for example: Los Angeles. It depends where you live because it will give you concerts near you. Your truly, a person that uses this app :)

Amazing app. 💗🙌🏼. I’ve had this app for years now and it has honestly never failed me. It’s on top of everything I could ever ask for and purchasing tickets through them has always been so quick and easy. It tracks all of my favorite artists; when and where they’ll be near me. Right now I just purchased tickets through this app after having so many issues through SeatGeek and other resell apps. Bandsintown gives you great deals, detailed info, and overall the best options you can get for purchasing tickets to any concert. This app always saves the day. HIGHLY recommend if you always go to shows/concerts on the regular.

Hands down, then up for high fives, best app. Wow. Great job on this you all. The biggest thing is having the best platform to connect artists with fans. I use it to discover new artists and I have a good story about that. I like how we now have a way to listen to bands, but it would be nice to see what genre they are beforehand. Also I have Apple Music and whenever I clicked to play it would just say, “You are already a user of Apple Music” Also I have a problem looking shows up by venue. I’d really like to be in the know about your app. I just subscribed to the manager version because I am a music promoter. It would be my pleasure to give my two cents on development!!!

Bands In Town. This is a phenomenal app. A lot of times apps are kind of lame. Not up to date, old content etc. This app is ON IT. All the amazing shows I've seen this summer are because of this app. It will notify me who's coming like before the ink is dry on the band's and the venue's contract boom notification. AND I like obscure bands and local bands. It's the same for my local seen. Best app for live music ever. And, if this is important to you like me, when you purchase tix it goes to the band's preferred ticket seller. So you know you are supporting the band. And there's no need for a ticket broker because this app provides the earliest notification for yours and the band's and the venue's shows. peace 🙏🏽🙂🕉

Love it and recommend it!. Think of this like Pandora for live music - it suggests band playing out that you’re likely to like based on your taste in music. And you can preview the band’s sound without leaving the app. If you travel, it will start to suggest shows as soon as you land. Only downside is the search function for a specific date and place if say, you know next month you’ll be in Boston, as you search a list and follow a band link, when you hit the back button you end up at the top of the original list.

Download now. Concerts are my happy place and this app helps keep the dark place away because it lets me know as soon as my favorite artists announce tours. Very helpful if you don’t open Instagram religiously and/or don’t have Instagram notifications turned on AKA you accidentally miss the artist tour updates from there. I love the feature/button to press that lets you request the artist tour near you. Who knows if the artists actually get that notification/one little fan requesting a tour even matters, but it makes me feel better haha I’ve never been to as many concerts as I have since downloading this app because the time my brain remembers to buy tickets to something, it’s usually too late and sold out. But not with Bandsintown!

Eh. Decent app for finding shows- the alerts of upcoming events have been handy. Some other features are just plain pointless, e.g. “messages from artists” - these are sent to you with notification saying “[xyz] artist messaged you” as if they are DMin you. When in reality it’s more akin to “an artist you track posted to their wall about [uninteresting news].” Worst part, hands down, is the user interface though. It’s pretty horrible, it just does not flow in anyway. No matter what you click, you feel like the app is actively working against you. Also, with the most recent update, I was logged out of my account and can’t seem to get back in. Had to start a new account with a different email.

Only one complaint. Bandsintown is an awesome app and does everything exceptionally well. The only thing i would say is that they could improve their notifications for refunds and cancelled shows. Me and my boyfriend bought tickets for a Bring Me the Horizon concert in February, and I went to check where the concert was on the app and it was gone. So i checked if it was still happening and it had been canceled. Bandsintown never notified me, sent me an email or anything, neither did ticketmaster (which is where bandsintown leads you to buy tickets.) I wouldn't have known and we would've showed up to a canceled show if I hadn't checked our tickets.

Love it but one suggestion. I love Bandsintown..it’s the best way to see who’s playing and where and has the links to the tickets which is awesome! I also love that it alerts you when a band/artist you may like will be playing near you. The only thing is sometimes I want to see if anyone will be playing in an area I’ll be traveling to, but it’s too far out so there are no results at the time. It would be stellar if you could save the dates/location you searched and Bandsintowntown could notify you when something does come up. 🤩

Hard to use, hijacks my device browser. I’m about to delete this app from my iOS devices. It takes over Safari whenever opened. It’s hard/impossible to navigate through, hard closing is the only way to get it off my screen- often without the info I hoped to get. It-and the developers-sem more interested in gathering my data than providing me with useful info. Today I got a message notification from a favorite artist- just the tease notification that there was a message, no indication of what it concerned (something that could have been easily put in the notification). I’ve done this dance before, but fell for it again: and Clicked Thru to the app. The app threw up a splash screen asking for more personal info from me. I couldn’t get past this screen to view the message without entering data sp I exited- as I’m about to do wit Bandsintown in general.

Unnecessary forced use. I stg this is so poorly designed for people that don’t use it heavily. I just want to see how much tickets are to a single concert that uses the platform and I’m being forced through an unending loop where it asks me to jump through every single hoop of downloading the app and creating an account before it will show me. Does the close button work? Absolutely not. Does the email verification work? Absolutely not, it will however tell you that the email verification it sent did not work (even if you follow it all the way through to the end where it says Your Account Has Been Verified) and send you right back to the beginning! Went through that for about ten minutes before finding a way to force it to open on the site instead just to find out the handling costs nearly double the cost of the ticket, which I suppose is more of a company problem than an app problem but still….just yikes.

The ultimate app for fans of live music!. Updating a review from a while back to praise how well the app has adapted to the pandemic. Now you can find dates and times for live streams from your favorite artists. It scans the libraries of all your music libraries, and is provides info on both the superstars and performers with small followings. If you like live music, you’ll love this app! Share who's going to see what and buy tickets through the app. Smooth integration with Twitter, Facebook, and most venues and ticket vendors. Get your friends to join and see what they’re interested in.

Not necessarily the fastest, but it is convenient.. I like getting notifications announcing when my favorite performers are coming... but whenever I contact a specific friend of mine about a show, not only is he already aware of it, he sometimes already has tickets. (Which begs the question, why didn’t he tell me about it?) Other than missing some presale discounts, it hasn’t really mattered though. It asks me to login to my iTunes far too often and I wish there was a way I could select Recommend Artists that I don’t like so I stop receiving information about them... but that’s all I can really complain about. Solid overall. It certainly beats the disappointment of finding out about a show after it already happened.

Had this app since 2006 for a reason!. This app always keeps me updated with not only the big venues, but the smaller ones that the bands I follow are playing. There were so many times I would have never known these smaller local venues even existed or my favorite artists were playing there. It’s the only app that really does that and alerts me, so make sure you customize your account and sync it with your music apps to find all the artists you may normally not choose. Thanks for giving me the chance to see so many events I would have missed!

Helpful app. This app will help you if your a metal head like me or if you just enjoy music and want to see your favorite musician or band you can track your favorite bands in mile radius or click track the UI is simple and not just 1,000 sub menus it tells you exact bands from every genre this app has helped me track my favorites down and also they give you websites to buy tickets from this app was recommended to me by heavy metal entertainment make sure you check those brits out they are quite witty and hilarious anyways 10/10 would stalk bands again

Very convenient. Very useful app only problem is it doesn’t update me on some of the more underground artists. There’s been a few shows that are barely making the recommendation section and it lists the headliners who are artists I don’t really care for (don’t have any of their music on my phone whatsoever) but when I check the bill it’ll have openers who happen to be some of my favorite performers. Just makes me wonder how much gold I’ve skipped out on based off the fact that my preferred artists aren’t getting listed in the upcoming show section. Other then that it’s a great app.

Life saver. As a huge music lover and musician, this app changed the way I view concerts. I used to just stick with the bands I listened to most and tried to keep up with their tours, but since using this app, I’ve probably went to5 or 6 times the amount of concerts that I did before, directly due to the fact that I got advanced notices of when bands I like (or similar to what I like) we’re going to be in the area near me. Seriously, I don’t miss any shows anymore unless I have things I was already doing, or work. Can’t rate this app high enough.

Used it forever but it’s horrible now. I’ve use this app longer than I can even remember unfortunately the interface has become a mess. I don’t want all these things cluttering up the interface I just want to know what concerts are coming up for the artist I’m tracking (not all these other categories they’ve polluted the main screen with). I can’t even find a list of my bands concerts coming to me soon in the app anymore with all the event spam listings. Also it keeps putting me in the wrong location (I emailed them months ago and they claimed to have fixed it ), I even manually tried to set my location. What a shame this was the first and for a while the best way to see which of your liked artists are playing near you.

Not impressed. Hopeful, but first impression is NOT a good one. I have NO desire to give anyone access to my life (including my library) just to get tour dates. That's one reason I don't belong to any of the online library apps out there. My music library is huge and I don't feel the need to know the movements of every artist I listen to. That was complaint #1. #2 is their idea of selecting bands you might want to know about is to throw everyone up on screen in RANDOM ORDER. Seriously? You expect me to spend hours looking at every band/artist that ever put out a song, in random order? Ever heard of alphabetizing? How about a simple search field? You do realize that many of these artists don't tour at all, and many are actually dead! News flash: Simon and Garfunkel split up decades ago! So why should I have to sort through them to find what I actually want?

Great!. I am really greatful to have this app, anytime I am looking to go out for a concert I open it up and almost always find something interesting. I think they do pretty well for lesser known bands too. I like that sometimes they have the ticket prices available within the app, I would like to see that more often though. Through Facebook it has all my favorite bands listed, and I can track my top favorite bands. You can search bands, locations, and events. Even see the line up for the show. RSVP, and comment within the app to connect with other people going to that show. Thanks Bandsintown!

Can't recommend enough!. I have been using this app for at least a couple of years now. I recommend it to every music lover I know in every city I go to! I travel a lot for work and I'm always checking this app to see what shows are going on. I love how it has evolved to include date ranges. The mileage range is a huge plus, since I live in a small border town that doesn't get much action. This app lets me see who's on tour that I otherwise wouldn't have noticed, since most don't come to my city. It also allows me to plan for future travel, and dream a little (Rancid in Paris perhaps?)

Great but the new update is really bad.. Have been using Bandsintown for about 3 or 4 years, and it’s always been reliable and given me the earliest notifications for tour announcements and more. But with the newest update, every time I open the app it prompts me as if it’s my first time using the app, and all of my push notifications are never able to be viewed because it says I’m not following the artist who literally just sent me a notification. Not so impressed with the update, please fix it, I didn’t know that One of my favorite bands announced a spring tour in my city until the day after the announcement, when i scrolled past it on Twitter. Please fix the app I have loved and used it for so long. 5 stars before the update.

Sooo much better than Songkick. After a mediocre experience w Songkick, Bandsintown is a breath of fresh air! Shortcuts to listen to artists is very useful. Automated scanning works if the app tells you *where* it got it from and the app pops up a summary to uncheck recent artists scanned every so often. Being able to mark a show “maybe” & have an ordered list (RSVPs) of shows coming up works well (not to mention it’s super useful it publishes them to yr calendar) My only gripe (and big enough to dock a star) is events are missing and even after reporting them, still don’t show up (at least temporarily put them in our RSVP list until you verify it!). I also noticed today, Songkick appears to get event announcements sooner - thus I won’t be deleting Songkick just yet...

Hard to get started. This app is garbage to get started on. I just wanted to know the price of a ticket at a small show at a small venue in a small town. I had to use the app to do that. So, I download the app, thinking I’ll now be able to see this show and what it costs. First it made me select ‘artists that I like’ before I could proceed and presented me with an unsearchable list of hundreds of artists, the first hundred of which I don’t like or don’t know. I picked some random ones (dumb, not useful). Then I had to confirm my email, which I did repeatedly but the app does not recognize this. I cannot proceed from here, which makes it unlikely I will go to this show (whatever the price is..., I still don’t know), which ultimately hurts the small band I was thinking of seeing.

It’s A Total Assistant. Bandsintown provides details and features I’ve not noticed in other apps. I’m able to get who and when, of course, but I’m able to see more than that on Bandsintown. It’s so great to view the seating at the venue. I enjoying listening to the artist’s music samples, or sending them a request to visit my town. The option to update my calendar is seamless - a favorite thing! Artists tours info, ticket purchases, sound bits, directions, and more are helpful uses for most audiences. I guess I could recommend an option to listen to an artist on their latest podcast interviews. I appreciate Bandsintown as is.

Learn of ticket sales. I have been able to buy tickets to show I would normally miss because I learn of these shows before they go on sale because of this app sending me notification. If you want to buy tickets through the app, make sure the place where the tickets are purchased has the correct info. I just got tickets to Art Garfunkel. The Borgata web site had no info of this sale. I was able to call and get the tickets. The web site had wrong credit card info, so I wasn't able to process online. I love this app and I find it very helpful. This summer will be known as the summer of concerts because of this app!

“Shared a memory” notifications. I’d like to turn off the notifications congesting my Alerts tab that update whenever other users “share a memory” (aka leave a ★-rating) for concerts vaguely related to my location/tastes, but not at all determined by whether or not I attended said show(s). With respect, I genuinely do not care what other people think of a concert they went to — especially if it’s a past show that I didn’t attend or an about artist that I’m not planning to see anytime soon (y’all are collecting all of my concert RSVPs, right?). I never have a bad time at a concert, because honestly, seeing live music 10/10 beats whatever else I could be doing — so my decision as to whether or not I’ll catch an artist I’m interested in has nothing to do with what someone else thinks. Under Mobile Notification settings, the only toggle that I have turned on is: “Weekly Update – Receive a list of shows sent to you once a week based on your music taste.” …that summary doesn’t seem to describe the “shared a memory”/★-rating notifications that are being included. I guess I’ll turn it off and see what happens, but I’d really appreciate it if you guys could look into this. Thanks for all of your hard work, see ya out there!

Don’t even bother. This app shows you bands that aren’t even near you, I have gone to concerts in my state that this app didn’t even notify me of. Not to mention the fact that their customer service is non existent. I have emailed them several times asking for them to stop emailing me and I have turned all notifications off in the app and outside and reported the messages as spam, but since they are from different artist each time, I keep getting emails. SUPER annoyed and not going to use this app again. Edit: to the developer, no, I will not email you again asking for help because I have already emailed you and told you that I have already solved the problem all by myself, but you wouldn’t know that because you don’t check your emails do you. Thanks!! xx

Accurate and Efficient. This app only notifies you about the artist you choose to follow. It takes you to the ticket vendor website that is cheapest, which is always changing. It also will remind you of the show that you wanted to buy or bought tickets for a week in advance and day of. Syncs with your calendar if you want it to. Lastly, it gives you details on prohibited items for that venue, directions to the venue, instructions for once you get to the venue, and even suggests multiple lodging options/hotels near the venue!

Loved this app. Once upon a time, this app was great for finding out about local concerts. Now, it’s full of bugs. The notification settings were never amazing. But suddenly, I couldn’t get the app to stop sending me useless notifications about artists supposedly messaging me (even from bands I don’t follow??) and it has almost stopped sending me concert reminders all together. I was getting at least 3-4 notifications a week that Mae had sent me a message. I don’t follow Mae, never listened to them, and the phantom messages never materialized when I opened the app. I tried adjusting notification setting several times without relief. So finally, I broke down, deleted the app, and reinstalled it. Now I can’t log in. At all. All I get is “server error, check your connection”. Get your act together Bandsintown.

Great idea, a bit buggy. App has so many bands connected. Push notifications are great. Kudos. However, the app doesn't refresh well when changing locations, following new bands. App needs to be restarted before it will pick up your changes. If you can handle these issues, you've got a wonderful tool in your pocket. New ideas for the team: Search radius expands beyond 150 miles (would like to have two large cities in my search scope, not just one). And allow specific date searches (say I'm going on a trip in 3 months and want to know who's playing in that town... I shouldn't have to scroll through the next 3 months to see the 1 week I want)

App Saving Mi Vida. Working and being in school full time (and having the ADD) = not having the luxury of forsaking a lotta time to the hunting down of events given I’ve the off chance of being able to attend. Bandsintown does a great job of laying it out for me. My only critique to make it perfection for my usage would be the option of subscribing to merch drops for given bands without having to be subject to the umbrella of all the other types of notification that fall within it. Nonetheless, thank you & keep up the good work!

Spams notifications. This app only needs to do one thing: tell me when the bands I follow are in town. I give it two stars because it does in fact do that. Unfortunately, in addition to its promised function, it constantly spams my notifications telling me I should follow more bands and that it has recommendations for bands and events I might like. None of these recommendations get even close to mark or seem to be based on a sane algorithm. They’re just spammy and lazy “use our app more please!” type of things, and they make it difficult to separate the actual notifications from the spam. And worst of all, the spam notifications are written in this over familiar, cloying manner (e.g. ❤️ you, we found some events you might like. 🤘 rock on!). You’re not my friend, you’re an app.

Maybe my favorite app ever. This app is incredible it’s linked to my Apple Music and let’s me know when there’s bands playing in my area. Going to Nashville not being a huge country fan but wanting to see some live music I was able to find an August Burns Red show the day I arrive. They will be playing with one of my new favorite bands in Spite. This is a must have app if love music is a passion of yours and if you’re reading this theres probably a good chance you are. Also the app makes buying tickets great with multiple option for point of sale and links to your calendar.

Why am I getting prompts to verify myself?. I finally used this app again after a long time, and it said it found and restored my account, yet errors came up. Then, I was promoted to verify my email, which when I did, it brought me back to the app, snd an error message appears. Then, after trying to use it through safari, where I actually was able to see things, but not actually search an artist or venue, I received a very suspicious email, that was labeled verification, but said this email contains nothing. I flagged the email. After updating the app, it still did the exact same crap, and wouldn’t let me reset my password, even though the app stated my account was restored. It just keeps prompting me to start a new account. Sad.

Love this app!. Been using Bandsintown since 2014 and I love it. They seem to have worked out any kinks it used to have, and now it works great. It always notifies me thru email when artists I follow or might be interested in are coming thru, and I love being able to look back on all the shows I’ve been to in my history. Occasionally I’m not able to find certain artists in the app, so I don’t know how the artist profiles are made, but that’s rare. It would be cool if it also had an option to add favorite venues or something similar.

This app is incredible. I don’t know how this app is not more well known. if you love live music do yourself a favor and download this app. my only note to the developers is when searching for concerts near you, you have to select certain cities. this makes it take way longer to find good shows when you're browsing because you have to separately search the big cities near you. I’d recommend changing it to a location or mile radius so you can set it to how far the cities you’re willing to travel to are. also a bit more accuracy in the genres would be nice, sometimes you can find the same concert show up under the rap, rock, and country genres lol. however that’s not an issue when you’re using this app to seek out and follow specific artists. I’d also recommend going to your trusted ticket site of choice to purchase your tickets instead of directly through the app. other than these small issues though this app is so worth the download!

WORTHLESS!!!. This has to be one of the worst apps I’ve ever used. I deleted it once, then thought I’d give it another try. Nope. Just as bad. You cannot get past entering profile information, even to check on the simplest content about content. If you DO get past the profile garbage, and maybe find the link to get to concert info, it never takes you where you think you’re going. It either crashes, or you get error messages like “there’s nothing here.’ If you are lucky enough to make it past all this junk and manage to get tix to an online event ... there’s NEVER ANY WAY TO ACTUALLY ATTEND OR VIEW THE EVENT. this is a total waste. It’s nothing more than a phishing scheme to get your preference info, so they can sell it to third parties.

Wrong concert and terrible customer service app. I’ve been trying to contact bandsintown help and submit a ticket but the app won’t submit the form and won’t tell me what’s wrong with the information or what’s missing instead it just makes me start over and re-enter my info. After 5+ attempts I’m even more frustrated than the initial incident I was trying to report. Usually I rely on this app to stay up to date on what concerts are coming up and now I don’t trust it. I received a notification of an artist I was excited to see so I clicked the artist’s page, saw the tour date listed and clicked the link to buy tickets directly from the artist’s page only to show up to the concert extremely disappointed that the tickets I purchased were for a totally different artist. Feels like false advertisement and the fact that there’s no decent way to report thru the app or call a customer support line I’m kind of over this app. Thanks for the let down 👍🏼

Love the Bandsintown app!. I’ve only recently been introduced to this app, but I instantly fell in love with it! Music is definitely a passion of mine and a go to for date nights with my fiancée! Since I’ve found this app, there is no shortage of music at small and large venues for just that! We’ve recently realized it provides festival and comedy events too, which also offers last minute things to do with our teenage children! As an added perk, Bandsintown even provides you with a map of the area and places (with prices) to stay, should you decide to have a few cocktails and let loose during the events. We’re definitely looking forward to utilizing this app to its fullest extent, not only for local shows, concerts, and festivals but also during our travels and vacations to fill our downtime! We can’t wait to see how this app improves overtime, great idea/concept!

Seems great, but it’s flawed. Been using this app for a while now without fault. Recently, however, I hear one of my favorite bands is coming to the area - which I’d been waiting eight long years for - and that tickets go on sale on 8/17 at 5:00 PM. I set two alarms, one the day before and one an hour before, so that I can’t possibly forget. I wake up the morning of the 17th and I find out immediately from a different source that tickets went on sale at 9:00 AM, and they sold out immediately. Bandsintown posted the WRONG TIME. Now, I have to consider getting scalped tickets (the lowest price on StubHub is 250% what it was originally going for) or waiting another eight years until they come to town again. Thanks for ruining one of the most exciting opportunities I’ve had in years, Bandsintown.

Make sure to double check the Artists when buying tickets!. I received 2 alerts and an email stating that Banks was playing at a concert venue in San Francisco. I clicked the link and saw the picture of Banks and the venue name and date as stated in the email. I purchased tickets and then got a receipt and tickets sent to me for BLanks. Completely different person, not even close. The venue has a no refund policy and when I wrote to Bands in Town they directed me to their terms of service which basically says, too bad, we are not liable. So basically now I bought tickets to some random guy by following the links from bands in town and now I’m SOL. Not sure how an algorithm screws up by a full letter and no one at the company is running checks to match the actual events. Really expensive mistake for me using their platform.

Great app in a music-rich city.. Great app - Nashville has dozens and dozens of options pretty much every day and this helps plan. Feature suggestion: have a tab or button which easily shows me all of the bands I follow and their next dates Feature suggestion: have a “today” button which shows me only the bands I follow. I can accomplish this mostly through the search function I’m just looking for convenience and I mostly want to see bands I have already previously added to my favorites.

Best App-!. I’ve been using this App for about 3 years. For the earliest notifications direct from the artist on upcoming performances in your town, it’s simply the best. I’ve bagged some great seats by getting an early heads up from Bandsintown. Take the time to go through the process of letting the Bandsintown App scan your fav streaming service and walk you through an easy and fun wizard to help ID not only your fav artists, but also artists who - based on your preferences, you would dig too. I need to step up my involvement in the Bandsintown community - and not sure about connecting to FB & other platforms. Would also be cool to share the pics and videos after the concert with your Bandsintown buddies, but right now, today I have zero. Anyway, it’s cool and much more than just an App - so go get it-!

Useful. Got a notification letting me know that my favourite band are expanding their tour and coming to a venue right near me when I thought I’d missed out on their Brisbane show.

Connect to music you love. Bands in town is essential for anyone who enjoys live music. With interest swelling getting early advice about gigs is essential for grabbing a ticket. You’ll never miss out again

Don’t ever change!!!. One of my favourite apps of all time. If you’re a music lover, & love going to gigs/concerts, you need this app in your life. The nearby accommodation feature is a wicked lil bonus 🤘🏻

So far, way better than any other solution to stay on top of gigs coming up. Relied grudgingly on Instagram to tell me who was coming to town but as a hater of anything Meta, was really hoping to find better. A Google search and an install later and loving this already. Thank you for the Apple Music matching!

Better than the website. Better features than the website. Wish there was a ‘gig buddies’ system though. I need more friends who like live music.

Wicked app!. Love not missing bands when they come through town! It keeps you informed, and lets you manage what level of notification you want. Also nice when it recommends artists that you might like. Noice.

Excellent app. This has faithfully let me know when the bands or artist I love are coming to my city. I love it takes me to where I can get tickets

Very Handy. Very handy app to have if you like to know what's happening in your town. But they made changes on how to look up or find the bands one is interested in and not to the better....

This App needs to send tours when the Artists are playing in Australia rather than North America. This App makes out like Bands/DJ’s are going to tour Australia! And sends you a message from the Bands/DJs that you like! Saying that they’re touring in Australia! When they’re touring North America!!! The App should work out where the ppl are and only send messages from the bands and DJ’s when they are touring the Country the ppl live and are from!!! I think that I will remove this App. Since it’s done this to me over 2 years! And get my hopes up! Ie Tiesto, The Smashing Pumpkins and this week Pennywise! 😡

Spot on. This is exactly what I was after - synced to my Apple Music - I have an idea when bands I like are playing locally, gone are the day of hoping to catch a poster/advert for a gig or trawling through gig guides. Thanks for this

If you don’t know how it feels to have a message that the band you love sent you a message 😊. Excellent PR and epic feels every time I get a notification that a band or musician I adore has messaged me 😊 happy place stuff and appreciate it’s a very effective marketing strategy but it still feels nice and I do want to know 😊 that’s why notifications are on even though they wake me up. Good work 👍 luv Kate

so convenient. love it. the app is so well designed. you can track artists (follow them) and get notifs about upcoming events, there’s a button for if you’re going or interested in going, it shows you accommodation near the event as well as prices on a map which is so easy to view, you can click to add to calendar and you can put directions straight into waze. you can stream artists live as well. so much you can do and i love it.

Must have app for people who love live music. This is awesome. I would totally give it 5 stars but there is still much more it could do (like remove artists your not interested in from your list and learn from that). I find this much easier than other options. Hope all the good muso’s use it.

Best app for live music!. Love how this app syncs to your music and reminds you with up coming shows! You can even by tickets directly!

Easy to use and effective. This is a great app for what it does. I just search a band and it comes up with upcoming and previous shows. Nice job.

Get it Boy!. How the hell did I live without this app?! I missed out on getting tickets for concerts and smaller festivals because I’d always find out too late.... well not any more kids! Be the first to tell your mates and gain points with the boys as the leading organiser for sick sessions 👌

Give me music. Can find out what’s going on and coming up in terms of live music around me.

Good info. I have been browsing around Bandsintown and finding lots of great information l hadn’t seen before, go for a look you won’t be disappointed 🌺

Awesome.. Great having everything about multiple artists in one place and gigs and them being able to message you. Thank you

Amazing app. I have always had so many issues keeping track of my favourite bands and their tours through their social media. This is the perfect app I have no other words. I recommend it to ANYONE

Very helpful. The app updates to the location that I am in and lets me know about nearby bands and more. Very informative and easy to use.

Easy to use. Easy enough to use but a little clogged up with multiple of the same artist. I love being able to see their tour dates and get alerts when they’re headed my way.

I couldn’t survive without this app. I wouldn’t know if anyone was having a concert without this app. Thank u for everything you’ve done for me ❤️

Keeps you up to date with touring bands. Exciting when you get notified your bands in town or are coming

Useful app. You can use it if you're new in town, if you're traveling, or if you have a busy schedule and need reminding of events. I never review apps but this one deserves it.

Yasssssss. I would have missed out on so many good gigs if it weren't for this app especially since I pay very little attention to social media.

Bandsintown forces you to fill in a whole heap of BS. Bandsintown forces you to fill in a whole heap of BS before it will find you a ticket. Then when I wanted to tell them that unless they stopped trying to force me to fill in all that BS I would delete the app I could find no way to contact them. BandsInTown consider this your feedback, I’ve uninstalled your app.

Great app to keep track of local/international acts wherever you may roam. Must have for any music fan. Great app to keep track of local/international acts wherever you may roam

LIFESAVER MUST HAVE. THIS APP IS AMAZING!!!With this app you can have access to find all the concerts in your state, city, and country!I found out about concerts from my favorite artists I didn't even know about!Love so much and just found out Little Mix and Guy Sabastian is coming to my city!😁😄😃

Great to see what live music is on. Brilliant app to check what’s happening around you or check when an artist you like is doing a gig

pretty good. easy to use, gives updates as soon as the dates come through. told me ocean alley is coming back to Aussie next year so I can start planning for it

Literally doesn’t work. Just downloaded the app because the website forces you. Then it tries to ask for access to your other apps. Then it forces you to select what genres you like. Then it forces you to track artists you like, and then you can’t get pass this section. You close the app and reopen? Back to the start, trying to access your other apps. Who signed off on this?

Great app!. Great app for seeing what’s coming up with your favourite bands\artists. Specially if you don’t use social media, this app can get you by with staying in touch with the music scene in our area.

Wish I had this years ago. Email lists have disappeared and social media algorithms hides good news like when bands are touring. This service fixes this issue

Needs improvement. This app has helped me to follow artist and let me know when there is a tour coming soon. However the notification usually suggest artist they think you will like with concerts that’s about to happen in a week or just days. It needs to be notified earlier. Maybe as soon as the ticket is selling. Also I’ve searched on google for artist with concerts coming up but sometimes it doesn’t show or match in the app... it needs to be fixed.

Awesome app, only has one flaw. This app has given me the heads up on getting tickets to my most favourite artists. However there is one thing I’d like to see, it’d be good if you could add multiple locations to receive notifications for, instead of only receiving notifications for where you’re set to. I live in Brisbane and missed out on Glass Animals in Melbourne because I didn’t know about it! So bummed.

BITown App. Love the App especially part of reading musicians messages. like it how i can see all local and nearby events in one app, no searching for it.

Dysfunctional app. Tried to download the app as I was looking to see if there were any available skid row tickets for sale and hence was redirected to download the app. Once I did that I was asked to verify myself via email and then the Vicki’s circle started and was unable to whether the app !!!! Very frustrating rhe way the app is designed, I was unable to get in properly … I ended up deleting it !

Reema Khano. Love this App so much! Reminds me everytime a artist is playing in my city and when a new song comes out! Definitely recommend downloading.

Annoying things. First all my information disappeared from the app and I had to try to recreate it - history lost obviously- and now none of my notifications show up in the app. I can only read them via the email link. Before all this it was great and very useful when traveling, now not so much.

Super useful!. Easy to use with a wide selection of artists. Also the Green Day website recommended it so you know it’s trustworthy.

Great app for staying up-to-date on gigs. This is a very useful app for searching for nearby gigs, following artists and being notified about upcoming events. Includes a handy feature to synch details to your calendar.

Couldn't recommend more. Absolutely amazing app. Access to pre-sales without having to sign up to that many different lists. Also has so many options to add your favourite music to the app.

No more missing out!. This is a really good app and made it a lot easier to keep track of concerts that I have been missing out on. It is almost a five star app but with a few more updates it could be much easier to navigate but otherwise it is really helpful

Phenomenal App. Literally a dream come true - these devs don’t sit on their laurels, keeping the app up to date and continuously improving it, keeping you connected to the creators of your favourite music :)

Hey, this is pretty good.. Not a fan of being asked to review but hey, I use this app enough to warrant a review. It’s pretty great, tells me what’s on around me and what’s coming up and also sends me straight to the tickets. Great app.

The best for finding shows. It’s so easy to use, If I’m bored I can just search up shows for tn and I now have plans it’s that easy

All the Bandsintown!. Provides listings of artists heading to my part of this third rock from the sun. The one stop experience from notifications to booking info. Much good.

Not worth my time at all. Terrible app, I spent 5 minutes downloading it only to redirect me to a login page as you can’t view tickets without an account, Ben to a TicketMaster page where I could have just used their app to view tickets. Also gave me an error message multiple times until I manually searched for the artist. Not worth my time at all :/

Amazing app with all I need. This app has been a blessing, makes it so easy to keep track of my favourite artists and if they’re touring. What shows are coming up locally, and helping to suggest shows from artists I might like based on my preferences. Absolutely amazing app

Love!. Except a few minor bugs, like the app closing unexpectedly, it’s a great app! I love being able to search for shows in my area.

add from spotify?. maybe im stupid or there is no feature to add your artists from your favourite streaming service. i’ve spent years discovering music and it would take a long time to search all of my fav artists within this app.

Usefulness. Very effective if you like live concert!!! And it connect to you taste or favourite genres via Apple Music, Spotify etc… account! A must for concert lovers!

Good!. Up to date and easy to use!

Major Issues. Constantly logging me out, asking me to verify via email. I verify, it says I haven’t verified. I exit everything and reload, I’m in for a few clicks, then the whole thing starts again. Unusable currently.

Poor spotify sync. Missing more than half my artists

My go to for any music related events ♥️. My go to for any music related events ♥️

A must !. I use the app at home and when I am travelling.

Emie. Genial très facile

This app has been my doom. Ever since I got this app I’ve been notified about every concert I want to go and my wallet has suffered. I check Bandsintown at least once a week,if not more frequently. Incredible app.

Great App…if you only have a few artists you like. I am a music lover with hundreds of artists in my collection. So it becomes very tedious to constantly get updates for each every time a date is announced, new merch, etc. So I have updates turned off and therefore I miss some. I use it more when I’m somewhere I’m unfamiliar with, or to look up artists individually.

Fantastic!. This app is fantastic. All I had to do was log in with my Spotify and boom! All my favourited bands are listed on their tour. It’s simple and you can easily add concerts to your calendar. Absolutely no complaints.

Unbelievable frustration. Without a doubt, the most unbelievably frustrating app I’ve ever used total garbage

great but…. I live in canada where everything is far but flights are cheap so i wouldn’t mind flying to see a concert. however the max distance i can set for being notified about a concert is 240km which is a hassle. other than that cool app!

A Concert Lover's Dream!. We have used this app to hear about and go to many concerts over the past few years. Very reliable, very secure. A definite must have for anyone who enjoys a live show whether it be music, comedy, burlesque, etc! 😎👍

My go to!!!. This is the app I use for all shows. I trust the up to date info!

This app is so good. This app is amazing sends you notifications when a concert is in your area so I don’t have to keep checking THANKSSSS

Love the App!. Love using the app to find my favourite bands playing at venues near me!

Use it a lot. Great app! Saves me trouble from trying to find out the concerts I’d like to go to at home or when traveling. Bases selections on my music collection.

Excellent. Always the first person to tell me when a band is coming to town. Updated quicker than some of the venues websites.

No. I do not want to sign up to follow a link. I do not want to set or share a location to follow a link. I do not want to choose a collection of interests to follow a link. App deleted. Will not recommend.

Was once useful. Back when I added the app years ago I found it useful. But it never remembers my log in preferences and asks to use Facebook or Google info. Easier to just follow the artists on their own social media than to try to rely on this app.

Great app for live music lovers. Keeps you informed about all upcoming events in your area

Bandsintown. Great App, thanks

I’m a fan of this app. Use it all time

Very useful. Keeps you up to date with all the entertainment

Bandsintown. I’ve been alerted just in time to events I don’t want to miss. Much appreciated!!

Très bon. Très bon

🤘🏻. 👍🏻very yes

Amazing. Recommend you can play music through the app from a streaming station!

Too Many Notifications. I keep getting notifications for events outside my designated radius :(

Wats important. Content is Good and timely

It’s good:). Helps to organize & inform.

Dope. Dope program

Amazing. As a music lover who is loves attending concerts, this is hands down the best app ever. However, you may have to apologize to your bank account after downloading because it is the ultimate pay check eater 🤣

Its ok. Kind of resource heavy but it has many bands in north America. Seems like after Covid musicians of varying quality don’t come to Toronto. Probably because GenZ market is small and millennials are seeing a housing crisis.

Excellent app. The only app I ever use when home or away to see what's happening. Seems to find everything and very easy to navigate. A keeper.

Great app to track fav bands and venues. App is excellent for following favourites and getting alerts about upcoming shows!

So far so good. Not bad

Great resource. Bar shows, concerts, tours, big acts - all in one place. Love this app.

Great App. The best to know what’s on the scene at all times. Loving it!

Super good app!. I like how it does all the work for me!! Very useful if you want to keep up to date on what shows are happening in the area.

Ride on!. Pratique quand t’es une oldschool i.e. Techno-poche 😈

JEREMY CAMP AT CHURCH ON QUEENSWAY. Once we were able to get the seats we wanted, Jeremy Rocked ! I loved his music we had Fun ! I loved Praising + Worshipping the LORD being there along with Jeremy ! I'd love to see Jeremy at another Concert ! Thank You Jeremy, keep Praising JESUS !!

Keeps me in the loop!. Since using the app. I have attended more local shows than ever !

Great local information. Great local information

Great app. Fun to use

Great Service. I Love Bandsintown for how quickly They let me know where and when my favourite artist are playing and links me to my ticket so easily! Thanks

Love this app. It my go to place to know what’s going on around me, Today and in the future.

Bandsintown. Excellent app! It is great knowing what band is coming to my area.

Wonderful!. This app got recommended to me by a friend when I was looking for stuff to go to in my city. It works amazing! The beginning where you go through all your music and select artists and genres and such that you like feels like it goes on for a long time but it’s sooooo worth it. This app lets me know about events for artists I love well in advance and makes it super super easy to get tickets and access it all through this app. 10/10

Wonderful application. This app is sooo useful that it is hard to describe! It gives me information on who is playing when and where that I have not been able to find anywhere else! The daily newspaper gets regularly smoked by the app. And because it scans your music it presents opportunities to see great bands that are loved by me! It is the best at what it does!! PSin previous post I forgot to hit the stars to show my appreciation of this app. 5 stars is what I wanted to say last time. I got it right this time!

Some improvements could be made. I love the idea of this service. There are a few really annoying things though about it. One, I’m really tired of getting the “blah blah artist sent you a message” notifications. No, they didn’t send me a message. Their team posted something on the site. I don’t want those. I wish it was easy to turn that stuff off. I wish it was easier to get rid of artists you don’t necessarily want to follow just because they’re suggested because of another artist I may be following. I want the option to opt out of that. Just wish in general it was a little easier to use and such.

Approved 👍🏻👍🏻. Love this app, occasionally you might have to search for bands that might be playing in your area. But nevertheless the shows pop up quick, very informative. Not to mention it will introduce similar artists you may know/ find out about right there, so boom a bigger playlist new music. l Getting tickets for the shows is easy access, and quick. Matching you with great prices. I love this app a lot, I keep up with shows like crazy because it’ll notify me weeks even a month or so before the shows. Recommend this app 100%

Awesome!!!. I've been a fan of live music all of my life; grew up attending concerts with my parents who had season tickets to various venues, and bought tickets whenever and where ever the spirit moved them. Now - 50 years later, I'm still loving live music - and perhaps even more so. And now I have access to Bandsintown. It is always reliable, always relevant, and always useful. I just love it, and I don't know what I would do without it. Seriously.

The best app. Love having all the info on upcoming shows in my area in one place. Covers the tiny venues just as well as the large ones, and the alerts about artists adding shows are immediate. With this app you'll never miss the opportunity to get tickets to a show because you didn't know the presale was happening. Makes my friends think I have the connections to get insider info, when really all I do is wait for the notifications from this app!

The best app for concert organizing!!!. Tracking all of my favorite bands and when their going to come in town or close to town is a hassle. But ever since I’ve gotten this app I turn on notifications for all of my favorite bands and look at the genres of music I like to see what’s all coming this year to places close to me. It’s cool to see when someone’s on tour, even if their playing across the globe! 11/10

One if the most useful tools for live music lovers. I have been using this app for the better part of 10 years and have been able to see so much of the the live music that I love because of it! I’m addition to that it has helped me to discover new bands that I didn’t even know I loved based on my music preference 10 out of 10 would recommend to anyone who is interested in live concerts!

Love using this app. This app easily tracks all of my favorite artists in several different locations! My family and I always enjoy traveling to see our Christian artists and this app makes it so much easier to follow them and we can decide vacation or travel plans by putting in a specific location together. thanks for putting this app out there for us to use! We yse it at least weekly, more like every 3-4 days just to watch for concerts to attend.

Works great!. **Update** This app has just gotten better. These people keep working and adding features, and not BS ones, but helpful ones like buying tickets in the app, and listening to tracks by artists in the app. I use this app all the time and I appreciate that it exists. Works great in the NYC area. I use it often, and there are shows I've gotten to see that I would not have heard about without this app. The recommendations are often right on and I do use the cloud function including the recommendations and see things I'm interested in often. It would be cool if I could somehow scan my full iTunes library, not just the artists that happen to be on my phone at the moment. Anyway I highly recommend this app, it will help you to see what concerts are going on in your area.

Disgusting Breach of Trust. I’m horribly disappointed with this app. Under no condition should you ever give this app access to your contacts! All I wanted to do was see who else was using the app from my contacts, and the next thing I know I find 960 EMAILS in my inbox within just a few minutes. Did this app just spam everyone I know? And no, before you even ask DEVELOPER RESPONSE, I absolutely did not click your spam the world button in the app. What an underhanded way to market yourself. Are you thinking of downloading this app? RUN THE OTHER WAY. You might as well just upload your contact list and email password to Reddit. Who knows what other tactics this app is using to steal your data. Furious...

Bring back the cloud!. Been using this app for years to find the best shows coming up, but recently it has never been harder to find out which shows are slated to come to town. The cloud option was taken away to be able to see all the artists that have shows coming up and now you can only see what is coming up on the artist page or what is coming up really soon. You can’t just see all the artists laid out, click on them to see what dates they are coming and where they will be. Please bring the cloud feature back!

MUSIC JUNKIE MUST HAVE. Never write a review for anything. But I’ve had this app for a few years now and never had a problem with it. Love the fact you can set a distance for how far you’re be willing to travel for a show. Also the list of artists performing day to day even if you don’t know them. Found out about a lot of stuff I didn’t know was going on because of this app. It just all around user friendly in my book. 👍👍 two left thumbs up.

Awful. I don’t typically review apps, but this app, and website are horrible. I created a page for my band and the entire process was tedious. I’ve had to email support twice, my Facebook is still not integrated correctly, and links I shared to our Facebook page were “not found”. I signed up as a fan with a different email so I could see what our fans see, and I still can’t track our band. I’ve also verified my email three times and still cannot login on the app because it keeps telling me I’m not verified. It takes forever for support to reply back, and overall is not worth the headache. **edited to say I every time I “track” a band, it doesn’t show that I’m tracking them. I can go back a few minutes later and it asks me to track them again. My manager page doesn’t show any trackers, and I know for a fact people have tracked us... they probably were untracked though like I was when i signed up as a fan. This is the most insane thing I’ve ever seen! The site is 100% useless.

Notification. Bought tickets. An amazing night to remember.. This is hands-down one of my favorite apps. It basically is a buddy that says "hey, man, that band you love (or this band that's like the bands you love) are coming around soon. Just letting you know that it is happening, so that you don't regret not going for the rest if your life." True words from personal experience. I would have completely missed the show of a lifetime, but nope. I was totally there and I honestly have this app to thank. So thank you BandsInTown. I salute you.

Didn’t miss the reunion. I love the band Jump Little Children, but they stopped performing together several years ago....I’d say about 10 years. Every so often, I’d check their website to see if a reunion of some sort was going to take place. Fortunately, I was also tracking them through Bands in Town. I received an email alerting me about their new tour and have since received another email about another weekend they played. I always check the app for concerts now. Love it!

5 star app fer sure :). I used to have this app a long time ago, I like the updates quite a bit. We’re looking forward to some live music this year! This app is perfect for keeping up with your favorite artists and groups, as well as any live shows going on this year. It caneven help you buy tickets I believe. We are going to fool around with the app a little more, but I highly recommend this app for any and all music lovers!! 🤘💋🌻🎶

Game changing App for the music lover. I'm a professional photographer and specialize in environmental portraits of musicians and characters. As I travel frequently all over the country, Bandsintown has become an indispensable tool. After years of shooting shows at large venues I'm always on the look out for more intimate performances. Bandsintown has kept me updated on small house parties and shows near me whenever the journey finds me. It's allowed me to set aside the industry and my work while on the road and to return to my roots as a music lover.

Used to be good. This app needs a MAJOR UPDATE. It’s running so unbelievably slow. I try to type in a location and each letter took a good minute just to show up. Anytime I try to choose a date for the area I’m looking at it pulls up a box where the calendar should be, but it’s blank. Nothing shows up. And after that it goes numb. I can’t click out of the calendar box. I can’t do anything with the app. It freezes up and then I have to shut it down completely. I’ve done this several times and each time I’ve had the same experience. Please update this app, because I really do love it when it works properly! But this new update is TERRIBLE.

Great app to find local stuff. One time I was stranded on an island , for decades I had to survive on beets , salt water , and the bark of a palm tree I had to cut down for survival spears (spears made for survival). I contemplated giving up and jumping off the very tall three foot cliffs that would certainly ruin my knees.... In the long run. Then suddenly from the blackness of night a boat appeared on the horizon ... I yelled "PLEASE IM HERE HELP ME" They yelled back " yes, we hear you. Use proper punctuation...idiot. I ran down to the shore where i had originally landed all those years ago. Out of that boat walked .... Oh hello can I help you? Yes, writing a story you , you seemed to have barged in here ..... What's that?... You wanted to know what I thought of an app ?... I already said it's a great app to find local stuff ... What more do you need ????? You've ruined everything. Now I have to tell my story somewhere else .

Best Concert App. If I had to name an improvement they could make, it'd be to let me know when my bands release new albums. But this is the absolute best app for keeping track of concerts and hearing announced dates. Even just today, I discovered one of my favorite bands is playing in my town, and I don't know that I'd ever even have known without this app. If you like going to concerts, get this app. It may well change your life as it has mine.

See the shows you're missing!. I love this app...you enter the artists you like, Then, magically (or via gps and a database, as well as info from artists...hard to say), it tells me when these artists will be in town! I've caught several shows I otherwise wouldn't have seen. HIGHLY recommended! I can only give four stars as it used to scan your devices’ music library to know who you were interested in. It no longer does that, which is a huge loss.

A must have for live music lovers. I've told countless people about this app. It's especially useful when you move to a new city and you don't know the venues. When I moved to Portland Oregon only the MODA Center used Ticket Master so all the other venues that were anything smaller than arena used other ticketing agencies. This app has EVERY show that I could see in Portland. I use it when I'm traveling to other cities and want to hit a live show as well. Scans all of my music and keeps tracks of every artists tour. Exactly what I want.

Terrible app!. This app sent me to the wrong artist! Her picture was there on my notification! Masha coming to Phoenix Dec 17,2017. I was so excited I was going to see my favorite singer. I missed my Christmas Party , drove over 50 miles, fought with my boyfriend all day because he had to work late so I thought I was going to miss her perform. We get there and it’s a DJ named Masha. I showed the venue the notification I had received and they were so apologetic as I had bought pre-sale tickets which they promptly refunded.... but they couldn’t bring Masha. This is not something that should happen. You affected so much in my life because you cross referenced a pic you found in your data and slapped it on the wrong Masha! Clean up your act or get out of the business!

Best app. If you're looking for something to do spur of the moment in a new town or your own, this app is perfect. I used this app in Seattle, WA to find upcoming shows in Austin, TX to buy tickets for a loved one's birthday. I've seen way more shows I actually want to see because it's an organized way to find them! I do wish the algorithm could pick up on the weird mix of my genre taste better and then recommend nightly shows based upon that - instead of having to pick a genre!

Radius is too limited!!. I live in Texas and have friends all across the State. Traveling to see shows with my friends is a great excuse to connect. I’d like to see where my favorites are playing within a slightly larger area. I’d say 600 miles should cover most of it. Well, if I set my location near the center. Otherwise, let us setup more than 4 locations! I would love to setup a radius for Houston, Dallas, San Antonio, Austin, Lubbock, Corpus Christi & Amarillo to cover some of Texas. Then, move on to add Phoenix, Albuquerque, OKC, KC, NOLA, Birmingham, etc. Thanks for considering additions for those who don’t lead a sedentary life. 🙂

Great app to keep you up to date on shows. I use this app to search for the next concert for my favorite bands. Bands in town is pretty spot on when it comes to knowing who's on tour. I also like that this app sends me a notification the moment that a band books a show near me so a good show can no longer slip under my nose undetected. I would like it if I could purchase tickets through the app, but that's something I can get done elsewhere.

Great way to know when you’re favorite bands are coming to town!. So far I’ve had a lot of fun checking out the upcoming shows that the app alerts me for! I’m always excited whenever I see one of my favorite bands announce that they will have an event in my city! Even if you aren’t planning to see a concert just yet the app still provides plenty of upcoming shows that might interest you.

Mediocre. I really don’t know what the point of this App is. There’s no value added by using this versus looking your bands tour dates up on an app that will actually let you purchase the ticket like Eventbrite. Their notifications are also more like constant spam than anything: they have this weird feature where you can “track an artist” and the artist even sends you messages! Except all of the “so and so just sent you a message 🔥” messages are just advertisements for their tour/album that the artist likely never wrote. My final complaint is constantly having to resign in, this app makes me sign in and verify my email every single time I open it. Would not recommend.

BUYER BE WARE!!!!. Unless you willing to give access to your location, your device's music and media collection, and access to your Facebook account, the app is ridiculously difficult to utilize. For those of us who still care about our privacy and wish to limit access to our devices this app is well deserving of one place: trash. And talk about nonstop notifications galore... I couldn’t care less about “messages from artists”. Also, the app automatically assumes the user wants to track certain artists even if they aren’t in the users music library. For example, I am automatically having Pitbull notification. I can’t stand Pitbull yet there is no way to unfollow Pitbull. What an annoying app.

Pretty great. It’s really good. It lets you leave messages to the band/group and request that they “play your town”. You can buy tickets directly from the app. It has many different features and does exactly what it says in the description. There’s only one function that I think would make the experience better, and that would be possibly having a link to the set lists if they’ve been released yet, if the band is on tour that is. Other than that, it’s fantastic.

Great Concert Finder. This is a great app for finding concerts! I love searching through it for my favorite bands! I wish you could block artists from showing up in the searches so that it would just show bands I want to see and I wish that you could set the search radius father away than just 150 miles (I’ve drove way farther to see a band at a certain location. And even though they were closer, it was not on a day I was off work) Other than that... It’s awesome!

Great platform for notifications. Without social media platforms, Bandsintown sends push notifications for upcoming saved bands that my wife and I both like. With our work schedules this has been great for us to make sure that we are making time for date nights. We purchased tickets for 3 events this year through the app and highly recommend to others with children and busy work schedules.

Great except for the notifications. It’s awesome to know who and where to see the music I love and have a link to buy tickets. However- I’m here for the music. I don’t really care if a band sends a “message.” I just want to know the concert details. I’ve had the notifications turned off for years. It seems like they’ve fixed this feature- fingers crossed! If it only notifies me when concerts are announced in my area then this app just became my favorite!

I don't care what the bands post/say/eat/photo. Omg let me turn that stuff off. I was able to mostly rid myself of the emails and push notifications but please understand something--- I DO NOT CARE WHAT THE BANDS POST--- most of the bands the you notify me about are far from my favorites. I don't want this feature at all! If I can't rid myself of it completely soon, I'll simply stop using this service. It's been good to have, but you've confused me for someone who is creepy obsessed with getting constant updates about people I don't know. I'm not that guy. We all live in notification hell and I will delete installs until my phone shuts up.

All in one.. What a great app. Not only can you track your favorite artists and know when they are plying close by, but the Plus subscription allows you to stream a variety of concerts. As a disabled person, I love skipping the crowds with Plus. The regular app is free and can scan your various streaming accounts to follow your listening tastes. The GREATEST feature is being able to put an event on your calendar instead of digging through an app. Bravo!

Sanity Saver. Concerts and live music are my happy place. And when I moved to the other side of the country I didn't know where all the good venues and distance alternative venues I could go to or if my favorite music artists even came to my area! My client showed me Bandsintown and I was blown away! I spent that whole night following artist after artists, RSVP'ing, and buying tickets. Needless to say, I'm never at a loss anymore and I'm always ahead of my concert game. My happy place is back and more alive than ever! Thanks for keeping me connected Bandsintown. You da bomb!

Finally! An app after my own heart!. I love love love listening to live music and Nashville has the greatest artists and venues to nurture that unending kind of love. No matter how many lists I’ve signed up to receive notices on upcoming events, I never seemed to get the info ahead of time so I could watch for tickets! This app has been so helpful because it goes thru my music library to find my favorites and notifies me when those bands are in town! It is so awesome! Thank you!

Less than the sum of its parts. Everything that should make this service awesome is here, I just never feel like I’m finding what I want, or I have to sift through tons of stuff to see what I’m interested in and frankly I just lose interest. Recommendations rarely work for me on any service, and it’s no different here. Some of the artists I like can be lumped into categories with lots of crap, but I guess that’s the way of the world. Maybe I’m missing these things, but… - I’d like to follow some venues, instead of just a radius. I don’t need to know about every bar band in the city, some preferred venues reliably book artists I want to see. - if there’s a way to tune notifications I can’t figure it out. If I RSVP or ‘maybe’ a show, I should get a reminder that it’s coming, then maybe I’ll remember to go. Right now I get a ‘how was the show?’ notification. I don’t know how it was, I didn’t go because I forgot it existed. Hope this is helpful, I think they’re on the right track. Hopefully it improves.

5 Stars. I personally rate this 5 stars because it’s really high quality. It’s an app you can go on if you want to know when your favorite song artists concerts are, you can find them and see if they are coming or already came to the place you live by. You should get it if you are the type of person to go to a lot of concerts. You can also request for them to come where you are, if your lucky enough they will ;).

It tells me when my favorite artists are in town. I live in Maryland. It’s a pretty small state with not that many big cities, which means there aren’t many concerts. There could be a few in DC and maybe one in Baltimore but that’s it. It’s hard to find concerts so this app really just keeps track of everything for me. I can put events as interested or going, I can see what’s nearby, even smaller artists. And I can see others who are selling tickets or can go cause I have no one to go with cause I have no friends.........

I would have given zero stars if I could. This app told me that one of my favorite bands was playing a headline show at MSG. So naturally I spent a lot of money on tickets for the show. Today, the day before the show, I find out that the band I was hoping to see is only opening for another artist. I found this out from another source (NOT BANDSINTOWN). I then found out that my band was not playing tomorrow night at all because the drummer got injured. I also found this out from another source. The Bandsintown app did not alert me of any of these changes or details. So now I am stuck going to a concert tomorrow to see two artists that I do not like and it is too late to sell or return my tickets. I am triggered. Thanks for reading. NOT YOU BANDSINTOWN!

So Important. I would be missing all the fun without this app! I keep my notifications on and constantly add artists to my “Track” list so I can stay in the loop! I’m always the first to know when ish is goin down and can buy tickets before everyone else/sells out and physically SEE MUSIC LIVE. This app inspires to bring back the good ole days of person to person contact and gettin down with your favorite bands & friends. 10/10 This app is a must have

Amazing!. Thousands of artists to search for! Your able to see the prices by clicking the Ticketmaster button they include etc. I currently purchased Sam Smith Tickets and it was super easy. It takes you to Ticketmaster and from there you purchase them. You also have the option to receive notifications on your favorite artists when they’ll play nearby you etc. I would totally recommend this! Enjoy!! Cuz I am lol.

What happened?. I used to love this app. a lot more because it showed all concerts in a specified area in the bubble view. In the past year, however, there was some kind of update and it will no longer show all bands and instead only shows a subset related to bands I check off as liking. This is a pain. Please allow a view of all bands in town without having to sift through and check off all bands I’ve ever liked. While doing so may enhance the recommendations I don’t have time or interest in that. I just want to monitor the app. for all future concerts so I can see who is coming and make plans. Thank you.

Extremely misleading. Bandsintown is an app that is supposed to help organize, search for, and finds concerts for artists users are and may be interested in. However, the website is extremely misleading in regards to who is the main feature and the opening acts in concerts. The overall design of the app is appealing to the eye, but in reality, misleads users into buying concert tickets they did not know they were buying. I bought concert tickets for a band that were supposed to be the “headliner” but when I had already purchased the tickets, it turned out they were an opening act. Save your money, and use official websites to buy your concerts. Don’t use this app because it won’t help you

Love this app. Great app for when you're in the mood to listen to live music and see who's playing nearby. Love that it pulls artists from the music on my phone and let's me know when those bands are coming. I feel like I'd have missed some good concerts were it not for this app. Also love the ability to listen to snippets of a band I'm not familiar with. We've actually gone to see a couple shows based on those snippets. Keep doing what you're doing !

Love It!. I'm a concert/live music photographer who has this app for several years. It has always given me accurate and updated information on a daily basis that is essential to my line of work. On more than one occasion it has updated me about a band/concert before the publicist even reaches me, which I find amazing. I do agree with others that there should be an option as to whether not you want to scan your music library, but aside from that this is one of the most useful apps I have on my phone.

False Advertising. I purchased 4 tickets on Monday, October 24 to see the BAND Foreigner on October 30. However, I called the venue on Wednesday, October 26 to confirm what time the show will begin and was told it is not the band but a DJ named Foreigner. It was advertised it was the band with the logo and a picture of the band and listed some of their top songs. However, when we discovered it is a DJ performing Sunday October 30, we had no intention of attending and I made several requests for a refund starting on 10/26 until 10/30. I never received a reply so I submitted a dispute charge to my credit card company. A week later, on Nov 2, after the scheduled event I received an email reply stating sorry no refunds per our purchase terms. This is just a scam.

Changed Me. I used to go to 2-3 shows a year. Since I started using Bandsintown I go to 25+ shows in a year. My love for live music has evolved into a passion/slight obsession. It would be awesome to have a feature where you could pick a date and see if any of your followed artists are playing anywhere. My friends enjoy going to shows for birthdays/special occasions and we are willing to travel near and far for the right tunes....Love this app!
