VenuNite Data API
418,000+ upcoming live events at 40,000+ venues across all 50 US states. The breweries, indie clubs, churches, and theaters the aggregator APIs don't carry. One JSON endpoint, OpenAPI 3.1, continuously refreshed.

Coverage that matters
Most event APIs ship you the same headline inventory and stop there. We go far beyond — every event at every venue, from the biggest arenas to the smallest neighborhood spots. If it's happening in the US, it's in the feed. (If not, let us know.)

Clean schema
OpenAPI 3.1 spec at /v1/openapi.json, ISO 8601 UTC everywhere, opaque keyset cursors (no offset trap), a stable machine-readable error code on every failure, and x-request-id on every response so support requests are traceable. Versioned at /v1. The response shape is deliberately small and decoupled from our own site's rendering, so it does not shift when the website does.

}Filters that match real workflows
Filter events by state, city, and date range. All filters compose, and the cursor stays stable as you page — including across events that share a start time, which trips a date-offset cursor. Keyword search, bounding-box queries and a venues endpoint are not in v1; tell us if you need one and it moves up the list.
Built for production
Measured 180ms p50 / ~390ms p95 for filtered list queries from a US client (2026-08-30, includes network round-trip) — measurements from our own probes, not an SLA. Every response carries x-request-id and X-RateLimit-Limit; a 429 carries Retry-After. Rate limits are enforced server-side per key. If you violate the terms we revoke your key — and event data perishes in days, so the lever is real.

The feed is built for foot-traffic models, tourism dashboards, hotel concierge, AI retrieval corpora, and local media verticals.
Foot-traffic signals for retail underwriting and commercial real estate. Live event density correlates with weekend visit volume — we deliver it as a single feed.
Power destination websites with the most comprehensive local event listings, including small venues that aggregator APIs miss.
Recommend tonight's events to guests at check-in. Filter by walking distance, category, and price.
Normalized event + venue metadata for retrieval and recommendation. Training use needs a written licence and we do not ship a bulk-export product today — talk to us and we will scope it.
Embed event widgets on city/regional news sites. Auto-categorized, freshness-validated, attribution-friendly.
Give venues their own data back — combined with audience demographics from neighboring listings to surface programming insights.
We're not trying to replace Ticketmaster — they own primary inventory for the largest venues. We cover everything else, and we cover the same large venues too.

One tier today, priced per conversation. The API is new and we would rather understand what you are building than sell you a package — so tell us the use case and we will scope it with you. No self-serve checkout, and no tier you have to guess at.

Read the contract before you ask for a key. The spec is generated from the same constants the server enforces, so the limits it documents are the limits you will hit — and it is served unauthenticated, so a client generator can fetch it directly.
