Overview
Bandsintown for Artists connects with Openstage so you can manage fan data and showcase live events directly on your Openstage Fanpage.
Once connected:
Fan opt-ins collected through your Bandsintown Widget or Bandsintown opt-in calls to action on your Openstage Fanpage will automatically appear in your Openstage workspace in real time.
Your upcoming Bandsintown events can automatically appear on your Openstage Fanpage.
To learn more about fan data collected and how consent works, see Collecting Fan Data.
Important: Fan Contact Sync only sends new fan opt-ins collected after the integration is connected. These opt-ins can be collected through the Bandsintown Widget, Smart Link, Signup Form, and Bandsintown opt-in calls to action on your Openstage Fanpage.
Followers and RSVPs gained through the Bandsintown website or app do not sync.
⚠️ Note: opt-ins collected before connecting can be exported from Bandsintown through Fan Manager and imported into Openstage.

Important: Turn on “Collect Phone Number” in Bandsintown for Artists
The primary goal of the Fan Contact Sync integration is to send your fans’ opt-in information (name, email, location, etc.) from the Bandsintown.
When you use this integration with Openstage, phone numbers could become particularly important. To include phone numbers in the Fan Contact Sync payload, make sure the Collect Phone Number toggle is turned ON in your Bandsintown for Artists settings.
Once this toggle is enabled, please allow up to 12 hours for the change to propagate across the platform. After that, new opt-ins will start requesting and sending phone numbers from Bandsintown.
SMS consent and compliance
Fans who share their phone numbers through Bandsintown are verified through a double opt-in process and, as of October 2025, include SMS-specific consent language that meets TCPA requirements in all signup flows. This means the data sent to Openstage is already validated and compliant for text message marketing. For more details, see Collecting Fan Data.
