Apple Maps Integration

Bandsintown and Apple Maps have made it even easier for music fans to discover shows and buy tickets. With the latest update, fans can browse venue schedules and grab tickets without ever having to leave the app.

Apple Maps also now offers over 40 Music Guides, fueled by Bandsintown concert data and curated by Apple Music editors, showcasing music venues in some of the world's most vibrant cultural centers. From landmark Viennese symphony halls to cutting-edge techno clubs in Brooklyn and Tokyo, the new venue guides make it easy for fans to explore upcoming shows in their city from artists of all sounds and sizes.

Apple Music Integration

Thanks to Bandsintown’s concert data, Apple Music now lets fans browse upcoming shows for select artists directly within the app. With the newly introduced Set Lists feature, fans can explore a range of major tours curated by the Apple Music team and listen to set lists while also discovering more about each event. 

Shazam Integration

With over 1 billion song recognitions per month, Apple-owned Shazam is one of the most popular music apps of all time. That's why we teamed up to make it easier for artists to promote their Bandsintown events. 

Shazam users can seamlessly view upcoming shows and find ticket info directly from the Shazam app. Whether fans search for you or Shazam one of your songs, your Bandsintown events will be front and center on your Shazam artist page.
