  • Use ?q= to search, ?page= and ?limit= to page through results. Without a key you get up to 20 results per request; with a key, up to 100.
  • Send your key in an X-API-Key header. Responses are cached for a few minutes, so please cache on your side too.
  • Show a visible link back to the Sounds & Stage page for anything you display. The data may not be resold as a dataset.
  • We do not provide live seat availability or prices from ticket sellers. "Price from" is what our editor last checked.
