Website Features
In addition to providing information about events, the site also allows users to buy tickets in association with many of the UK's best-known online ticket sellers Ticketmaster, See Tickets, Ticketweb, Wegottickets and others, as well as linking to smaller independent retailers.
Ents24 listings can be filtered by genre, location, time frame, level of disabled access, as well as displaying only free events, events with special offer tickets, events from the visitor's tracked artists and other time-sensitive filters (e.g. Artists playing at this year's Brit Awards)
While Ents24 do allow end-users to add events to their database, unlike other events websites, they check all submitted listings manually and often add photographs and additional copy. Listings can be added to the events guide for free.
Ents24 operate a number of email-based services, including a weekly newsletter and 'tour date alerts' which are sent to users when tour dates from one of their selected artists are added to the website. Around two million alerts are sent out each month.
Backstage
In September 2015, Ents24 relaunched their Backstage platform for event organisers, enabling users to list their events, have them promoted to Ents24's large audience and to sell tickets directly, via a partnership with See Tickets.
GigAlert
In October 2015, Ents24 launched the GigAlert app for iPhone 4S and above, allowing users to access its full event listings wherever they are, with or without a data connection, with or without logging in. It also allowed users to receive instant notifications when artists they have chosen to track announce a new show, and receive reminders just before tickets go on sale.
