Get an alert when "Sold out" turns into "Book now", when returns appear or when new dates are added — on the venue or event page itself. Paste the URL, point at the booking area, and stop refreshing.
Start monitoring free →Sold-out shows are rarely sold out for good. Returns, released production holds, extra performances and new tour dates appear quietly on the venue page — and the people who see them first are the ones who were refreshing at the right minute.
A returned pair of seats shows up at 11pm and is gone by midnight. You cannot keep a booking page open all day.
An extra matinee or a second night gets added to the listing before the newsletter goes out — if it goes out at all.
Venue emails reach everyone at once, often hours after the release. By then the best seats are taken.
Use the page that shows availability: the performance listing, the box office page or the festival line-up. Each check loads it in a real browser, so JavaScript booking widgets render too.
Choose "Watch only part of the page" and pick the "Sold out" label, the "Book now" button or the list of dates with the visual picker. Banners and countdowns elsewhere on the page are ignored.
Add a prompt such as "notify when tickets become available or new dates are added", then choose a check frequency and where alerts go. Each alert opens with a one-line summary and a highlighted diff.
One of our paying customers watched a London venue's ticket page for exactly this: the moment seats for a sold-out run became available again. Typical ticket monitors:
Returns and released seats for sold-out runs, extra matinees and late additions.
Venue listings for a sold-out show, second nights and newly added tour dates.
Club ticket pages for general sale, returns exchanges and newly listed fixtures.
Line-up announcements, ticket tiers opening and resale windows on the festival's own site.
The resale or exchange page a venue runs itself, where cancelled bookings reappear.
The page where a venue announces when general sale opens — or the word "on sale" appearing at all.
Venue websites, theatre and club box office pages, sports club ticket pages and festival sites usually work well — and they are often where returns and new dates show up first. Large ticketing platforms often use bot protection and virtual queues. We do not try to get around them: when a site blocks automated checks, the monitor is marked Blocked on your dashboard instead of going quiet, so you never wait for an alert that cannot come. Try the page on the free plan before you rely on it.
PageRadar is an alert, not a buying bot. It does not purchase tickets, hold seats, join queues or help get around purchase limits. When the alert arrives, you book the normal way.
Waiting for a product rather than a show? See restock alerts. Waiting for a specific word such as "on sale" or "returns available" to appear? See content monitoring. New to all of this? Start with how to track changes on a website.
For tickets, check frequency is what matters. Your first monitor checks every 15 minutes for 24 hours free; after that the free plan checks daily — fine for announcements, too slow for returns. Basic ($7/mo) checks hourly and adds Telegram and Slack alerts, Pro ($10/mo) every 15 minutes, Business ($25/mo) every 5 minutes.
