This year, we powered some of the UK’s most exciting and high-profile events, delivering seamless ticketing experiences at scale while raising the bar for what great customer service looks like. Our commitment to real humans, smart automation, and rapid support helped drive some of the highest customer review scores in the country.
Alongside this, our marketing campaigns helped major events sell more tickets, reach new audiences, and create lasting impact, while our data-led approach unlocked real value for partners. But beyond the numbers, 2025 was about collaboration: building meaningful partnerships, supporting brilliant teams, and meeting inspiring people who care deeply about live experiences.
But 2025 wasn’t only about performance. It was also the year LIVE IT began its B Corp journey, formalising our commitment to responsible growth, inclusive access, ethical practice, and long-term impact. That focus shaped how we worked, prioritising community engagement, accessibility, and sustainable partnerships alongside commercial success.
This is our 2025 Scanned: a celebration of the moments, milestones, and magic we helped bring to life.
We rolled out 100+ new features, upgrades, and platform improvements, all focused on helping organisers sell smarter, operate more smoothly, and deliver standout live experiences.
Big Moves in Ticketing & Operations
Tour Group Bookings launched, unlocking invoicing, arrivals tracking, dedicated reports, and on-the-day box office workflows built for real-world group visits.
The Box Office levelled up with seated events, inventory warnings, permissions, faster payments, clearer receipts, and smarter search.
Expanded time slot control, ticket rules, bulk actions, and seating tools gave teams more flexibility with less admin.
Accessibility & Inclusion Built In
We launched the Nimbus Disability Access Card integration, enabling events to validate access needs quickly, securely, and respectfully. A major step forward in making live events more inclusive by default, not as an afterthought.
Accessibility checks now work seamlessly across online booking, Box Office, and on-the-day operations, reducing friction for guests while giving organisers confidence.
Data, Reporting & Revenue Clarity
Enhanced sales reports, dashboards, and BigQuery exports, with clearer handling of payment plans, refunds, fees, footfall, and totals.
New Promoter Portal tools, CSV exports, and booking calendars put the right insights in the right hands.
Cost-of-sales rules, accounting codes, and improved Stripe reporting brought real financial transparency.
Trust, Security & Platform Resilience
Two-factor authentication, rate limiting, organiser email verification, AI-assisted spam detection, content review, and bulk spam controls all shipped.
Smarter ticket scanning safeguards, scan history, and fraud prevention tools protected both organisers and audiences.
Cookie consent, Online Safety Act reporting, and compliance improvements strengthened the platform end-to-end.
Better Experiences for Attendees & Teams
The Customer Portal (Manage My Booking) launched, alongside Refund Cover, auto-renewing memberships, SMS alerts, digital wallets, custom-branded PDF tickets, and accommodation integrations.
Faster search, clearer confirmations, smoother check-in, and fewer queue headaches, by design.
Every release in 2025 shared one goal: make live events easier to run and better to attend. Powered by real client feedback, real operational needs, and a team that never stopped shipping. 100+ features later, this was LIVE IT at full speed. And we’re just getting started.

2025 showed what LIVE IT does best. We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all. We build tailored solutions around each client’s goals, combining ticketing, customer service and marketing into a single system designed to grow with them.
In 2025, we strengthened our commitment to responsible growth, long-term partnerships, and doing things the right way. We are focused on learning, improving, and raising the bar every year, for our clients, their audiences, and the live experiences we help bring to life.
