About

Ribera is how Africa buys tickets. Discover concerts, festivals, nightlife, sports and conferences happening near you โ€” in Dar es Salaam, Nairobi, Kampala, Kigali, Lagos and beyond. Browse by date, category or city, and find events you would otherwise miss. Buy in seconds with M-Pesa, Tigo Pesa, Airtel Money or card. No queue, no printing, no booking fee surprises โ€” the price you see is the price you pay. Your tickets live in your phone. Every ticket carries a secure QR code that works even with no signal at the gate, so a weak network at a crowded venue never stops you getting in. Add any event to your calendar with one tap, and get a reminder before it starts. Running an event? Ribera charges organisers 0% commission. Create an event, sell tickets, scan people in at the door with your phone, and track sales as they happen. Free events, paid events, reserved tables and seats, and printed conference badges โ€” all in one app.
