Hi.Events

Hi.Events is a free, open-source event management and ticketing platform that helps organizers run conferences, workshops, meetups, and paid events without giving up a cut of every ticket to a SaaS provider. Built with Laravel on the backend and React on the frontend, it bundles event creation, branded checkout pages, ticket sales, attendee management, and on-site check-in into a single self-hosted application that organizations of any size can run on their own infrastructure.

Common Use Cases

Conference and meetup organizers use Hi.Events to publish event pages, sell tiered tickets, and manage attendee lists across multiple recurring events from a single dashboard. Workshop hosts and trainers leverage the promo code, capacity, and per-ticket question features to run paid sessions with custom registration flows. Community groups and non-profits rely on the free-ticket and donation flows to coordinate member events without per-ticket fees. Corporate teams use the platform for internal events, hackathons, and partner summits where attendee data must remain on the company's own infrastructure for compliance reasons.

Why deploy Hi.Events on Hostinger VPS

Event ticketing platforms charge per-ticket fees that can quickly add up for organizers running multiple paid events. Deploying Hi.Events on Hostinger VPS replaces those recurring SaaS costs with a flat hosting fee, regardless of how many tickets you sell. The VPS environment keeps attendee data, payment configuration, and event content on infrastructure you fully control — important for organizations with privacy requirements or regional data residency obligations. With dedicated VPS resources, on-sale traffic spikes are handled by hardware you can scale on demand, and Stripe credentials, mail providers, and domain configuration can all be tailored to your specific operational needs without platform-imposed limits.
