Hi folks — anyone have some tips for doing this, or examples of the way you've configured?
I believe the only two realistic options are using a contribution page or using an aux item, and I'm leaning towards aux item since this will make it easier for the customer to choose the number of tickets and what kind of ticket they want, with the total being calculated for them. The performance itself will be a dummy that just holds the revenue until we manually move it to an elevated event contribution.
Also, I think being an aux item we could include custom form data fields to gather an attendee list.
Anyway, looking for feedback — thanks!
Hey Nick,
We follow the aux item method. It's exactly as you explained - a dummy perf and we transfer the revenue out of the dummy perf to an elevated event contribution. We also collect guest name through a CSI.
We have a very basic event on our site now. You can take a look at our TNEW here: http://tickets.ums.org/auxiliary/auxlisting.aspx
Let me know if you have any questions,
Jenny
Hi Nick,
We also went with auxiliary - sample here.
Best,Megan
We use the contribute2 Page and have many different Ticket/Sponsorship Levels/Amounts that are applicable and we also information to capture and thus far, it's worked really well.

We use the Contrib2 page. The money is put on account and our Dev team manually creates the contribution. CSI captures guest names if they’re buying more than 1 ticket. We also create a record under History>Events and put all attendee names there. The Event Listing report under Dev reports is used for check in. The number of tickets and amounts are hard coded up to 4 for both levels. We manually turn off the levels as they sell out.
