Executive Summary
Event Recommendations Based on Customer Behavior
In event ticketing, discovery is the defining moment of the experience. Platforms succeed or fail based on whether they surface events that genuinely resonate with the user at the right time. When variety is not filtered meaningfully, choice quickly turns into friction, slowing decisions and weakening engagement.
This playbook explores how past behavior becomes the strongest signal for relevant event discovery. Events users have viewed, purchased, or attended reveal far more than declared interests. By placing these behavioral signals at the center of recommendations, platforms can move from broad listings to experiences that feel intentional and curated. Behavior-based recommendations shift the journey from browsing to guided discovery. Users spend less time searching and more time engaging with events that align with their preferences, location, and habits. Over time, this relevance builds trust, strengthens loyalty, and transforms the platform into a reliable guide rather than a catalogue.
