How advertising works

Normal results: how they are ranked

Search results and city pages list gigs published by official listings, ticket sellers, venues and organisers. They are sorted by start date and time, then by distance to the place searched. Only the area and radius, the dates and the filters you choose (style, free, small venues, price, with children) count. Duplicates of the same gig from several sources are merged.

No payment changes the order or the content of these results. A promoted gig keeps its normal place there.

What is sponsored

An organiser can pay for a gig to also appear in a separate block above the results, labelled “Sponsored” with the payer’s name (“Paid for by…”). The block only appears if the gig matches your search: within 40 km, in your dates and with your filters. At most 2 sponsored gigs per search and 2 per city page; if there are more, the order rotates every hour.

Sponsored links carry rel="sponsored". Sponsored gigs are never presented as our recommendation.

Options

Searches: 7 days, 19,00 € excl. VAT. Its city page: 14 days, 29,00 € excl. VAT. Searches and city: 14 days, 49,00 € excl. VAT. A promotion ends on the day of the gig at the latest; if the gig is sooner, the price is reduced pro rata.

Who can promote and what is refused

Any organiser, venue or artist can promote a gig published on BisBisLive. A promotion is withdrawn automatically, with a refund of the remaining part, if the gig is cancelled or removed by its source. It can be withdrawn without refund if it breaches the terms (misleading or unlawful content).
