Why I started it

“I was sick of finding out about the best nights the morning after.”

I built tonight.nz for myself because I was sick of missing big events in my city that my friends would post pictures of on Instagram the next day. Some of them I really would have loved to go to, but I just didn’t know about them.

I didn’t want to scour multiple event websites every weekend trying to find the biggest thing on.

So tonight.nz does it for me. Every 30 minutes it checks the big ticketing and event sites, ranks every event in each region by venue size, demand and ticket price, and puts the one that matters at the top. One pick per region, every night.

You can become a member for free and choose the kinds of big events you want to hear about, like festivals, international acts, theatre and ballet, or big sport. If you’re only into big concerts or psytrance festivals, you’ll never miss another one, and we’ll only email you about what you really want to go to.

How the pick works
  1. Every listing, every 30 minutes. We pull each night’s events for all 16 regions from Ticketmaster, Eventfinda and venue listings.
  2. Scored on size, not ads. Venue size, demand and ticket price decide what’s biggest. The headline is never for sale.
  3. Honest when it’s quiet. A person can step in if the pick looks wrong, and an empty night is called an empty night.
