Going to concerts together
A concert is better with other people. Tourspider lets you say you're going, see who else is, and get everyone to the same show without a group chat full of links — and if you're going on your own, open a plan and let someone join you.
Open plans
Some concerts are better with company. Open a plan for a show you are going to, or join one somebody else opened — one click, and you do not need to know each other first.
Meeting someone new
- Arrange to meet inside the venue or at the entrance — never at someone's home or another location.
- Anyone can read a plan. Do not put your address, phone number or bank details on it.
- Never pay a stranger up front for a ticket. Buy through the official seller.
- Tell someone you trust where you are going and who with.
- Not feeling right? Leave. You owe nobody an explanation.
- Tourspider is not a dating site.
Nobody has opened a plan yet. Be the first: pick a concert and open one from its page.
Say you're going
Mark a show as going and it lands in your agenda — and in your calendar feed, if you subscribe to one. On the event page you can see which of your friends are going too, so a plan starts from what people already have in mind rather than from a message.
Invite the people you want there
Invite friends to a show in a couple of taps. They get an invitation with the date and the venue and one clear question to answer: going, maybe, or no. Everyone sees where the group stands, on the event page itself, without anybody having to keep count.
Friends who aren't here yet
You can also invite someone by email address. If they don't have an account yet, the invitation waits for them: when they sign up, the show is there, and your friend request with it. Nobody is added to anything without saying yes first.
Groups
Make a group for the people you always go with — housemates, your festival crew — and invite the whole group to a show at once. Each group has its own page showing what its members are going to, which is usually enough to plan the next one.
Going on your own? Open a plan
Not everyone has somebody to bring, and that should not be the reason to skip a show. On a concert page you can open a plan: you say you are going, add one line if you want, and anyone can join you. There is no request and no acceptance step — one click and you are in the same plan.
A plan with one person in it is simply you saying you are looking for company. You can cap it at a few people or leave it open, and you can step out again at any time without telling anyone. Opening or joining a plan puts the concert in your agenda too.
Meeting someone you do not know
Arrange to meet inside the venue or at the entrance, never at someone's home or somewhere else. Anyone can read a plan, so keep your address, phone number and bank details off it — and never pay a stranger up front for a ticket.
Tell someone you trust where you are going and who with. If it does not feel right, leave; you owe nobody an explanation. Tourspider is not a dating site, and anything on a plan can be reported.
You decide who sees what
Your profile can be public, friends only or private, and you choose which emails you get: friend requests, event invitations, group invitations. What you mark as going is visible to whoever may see your profile — and no further.
