In 2025, Alex Clarke and I launched Comus. After years of navigating the events industry and seeing how bloated software platforms operate, we realised there was a gap for something that actually worked for the organiser, not just the middleman.
What is Comus?
Comus is an event management platform built for one purpose: to make selling tickets and marketing events as efficient as possible. It isn’t a “social network” for events or a bloated corporate suite. It’s a tool designed to be affordable, useful, and, above all, logical.
Why we built it
Most ticketing platforms fall into two camps: they are either free but offer zero support and terrible features, or they are “enterprise” solutions that swallow your margin in fees.
Alex and I saw that people running events, real events, from workshops to festivals, were being underserved. They needed a platform that handled the technical heavy lifting without charging a premium for “features” nobody actually uses.
The Essentials
We’ve focused on the fundamentals that move the needle:
- Affordable Pricing: We kept the pricing structure transparent. No hidden percentages that creep up as you grow.
- Marketing Tools: Built-in features to help you actually reach your audience, rather than just hosting a landing page and hoping for the best.
- Streamlined Logic: Much like the work we do at Yazaroo, the feature set is optimised for the user. It’s designed to be a machine you can set up and trust to do its job.
The Bottom Line
Comus is the result of looking at the event industry objectively and deciding to build a better alternative. It’s about giving organisers back their time and their margins. If you’re tired of “talking shops” and want a platform that just sells tickets, we built this for you.
