Milky Ways is where events, live streams, and your people come together under one sky. DROP A PIN TO CREATE AN EVENT Put your event on the map in seconds. Then add parking, entrances, VIP areas and other section off areas, so guests can find every part of the night — not just the front door. GO LIVE Stream to your followers, bring guests on screen, and turn the best moments into clips worth sharing. Viewers send hearts and gifts while they watch. SELL TICKETS Price your event in dollars and set as many tiers as you need. Buyers pay by card and the money goes straight to you through Stripe. You can even ticket a single stop — like the VIP room — without ticketing the whole event. GROUPS Start a group that is open, private, or secret. A secret group is invisible to everyone who is not a member: its posts, its events, and its pins. MAKE IT LOOK GOOD A beauty camera with real filters, AI-generated flyers you can keep editing, and music on your posts and flashes. DISCOVER Browse the map for what is happening near you, follow the people worth following, and stop hearing about the good ones a day late.
