# Eventbrite vs OnParty

The clearest difference is rating: Eventbrite at 4.9 against OnParty's 3.3. Eventbrite also leads on ratings volume (1.8M vs 6) and chart position (#35 vs unranked). OnParty's advantage is review sentiment (91% vs 55%) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

Eventbrite holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Eventbrite has 1.8M ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of Eventbrite's written reviews are positive against 91% of OnParty's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Eventbrite ships an update weekly, OnParty every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on September 25, 2026 and September 8, 2026 respectively.
