We are Humanitix

We LIVE for events. We LIVE to help event organisers sell more tickets. This sounds crazy – but we believe our tech-charity model can change the world! To date our small team has already donated over $1,500,000 to our education programs and this number is growing quickly!
• We help event organisers across a wide range of verticals including music festivals, conferences, galas, workshops, schools and university events. We are the platform for organisers to manage their event, sell tickets, and create impact through our philanthropic model. We have over 10,000 clients including Mardi Gras, Strawberry Fields, Parliament House (the old building in Canberra), schools, wood-carving workshops and so many more.
• Our major funders are the foundations of Atlassian and Google! Our Sydney office is currently 22 amazing humans, in the next 18 months it will probably grow to 30.
• We have offices in Sydney, Auckland, and Denver.
