What It Does

Event Tickets and Registration lets you sell tickets and collect RSVPs directly through your WordPress site, with attendee management built in. It integrates with WooCommerce for payment processing when selling paid tickets, while RSVPs work out of the box without a payment gateway. The plugin also connects with The Events Calendar for users already running that calendar setup.

Who It's For

This plugin fits sites already running The Events Calendar or WooCommerce that need straightforward ticketing and RSVP collection without third-party services. It works well for community organizers, meetup hosts, and small conference operators handling a few hundred attendees at a time.

Who Should Skip It

Skip this if you run a high-volume, multi-day festival or need advanced seating charts, recurring ticket types, or deep CRM integration, as the feature set is intentionally lean. Large venues or ticketing-heavy operations will likely outgrow its capabilities quickly.

The Bottom Line

At 80.19/100, Event Tickets and Registration is a reliable, well-maintained option that excels in the The Events Calendar ecosystem but ranks only middling on user satisfaction. It is a sensible pick for standard ticketing needs, but sites needing richer event management should evaluate EventPrime or Events Manager first.

Pick EventPrime if you want an all-in-one solution with bookings, calendar, and ticketing bundled together rather than relying on The Events Calendar.

Events Manager 81/100

Choose Events Manager if you need a deeply featured standalone event system that handles locations, bookings, and recurring events without WooCommerce.

Registrations for the Events Calendar 80/100

Pick this lightweight alternative if you use The Events Calendar and only need simple registration without the broader ticketing or RSVP features.

Eventin 79/100

Choose Eventin if you want modern AI-assisted event creation and a more visually polished frontend out of the box.

WP Event Manager 79/100

Select WP Event Manager if you need a jobs-style, modular event system that scales from free listings to paid ticketing through add-ons.
