We’ve come a long way since this picture was taken.

The first time Dom & Jarrad worked together - playing the in Manchester as 2/3 of a riot grrrl band!

Almost 4 years later they would start a SaaS company called PunkTech, the first product going live last year as a completely carbon neutral ticketing platform.

We reduce the our environmental impact as much as possible by using SMS in place of Email, and boast the ability to handle in person payments as well as online.

After checking the extortionate fees paid to attend major UK festivals this year, we are also determined to improve the way fee structures work for ticketing platforms and make everything fairer for all parties involved.

Drop is a follow and join us on our journey!

This is Dom. He's like an endangered redwood tree: he's tall, strong, and you just wanna hug him! 🥰

He's also pretty good for the environment 🌍 He's the driving force and technical lead behind Gekko.Events. He built out the software into what it is today and had the vision to create it in the first place!

We have a carbon neutral, modern ticketing platform that works for everyone involved, because of the hard work of this guy!

Incredibly proud to be launching with Castlefest UK providing their ticketing solutions!

We couldn’t be more grateful of Castlefest’s patience whilst we have built this platform. We are confident that this will be an incredible relationship with an excellent group who really care about the musicians and audiences they cater for ❤️

Today we take a step in the right direction with PunkTech and there new eco-friendly ticketing platform Gekko Events and we will be using this for the majority of our shows from now on and giving you the option of buying tickets for these from The Castle Tavern directly.

Gekko Events and PunkTech offset the carbon footprint of the ticketing process and helps us to provide a more planet sustainable solution to our events.

To celebrate this we will be announcing some new shows on Saturday all using this ticketing platform so keep an eye out on!

In the meantime here is what they have to say about the platform -

"At Gekko Events, we don't settle for just offsetting our carbon emissions (which we do through Carbon Neutral Britain), we work on reducing the amount of carbon we produce in the first place.

We use SMS ticketing to save on carbon production, we display carbon generated by public pages on our website and we currently offset more carbon then we use!"

A Christmas poem, by ChatGPT, From Gekko.Events ❤️

'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the town,
Folks were buzzing with excitement, there was no time to frown.
The event ticketing company was in high demand,
As people rushed to purchase tickets for their holiday plans.

There were concerts and plays, parties and dinners,
Festivals and markets, all shining like glimmers.
There was something for everyone, young and old,
A chance to come together, stories to be told.

So here's to a joyful holiday season,
Filled with love, laughter and all kinds of reason.
Thank you for choosing our company to plan your fun,
We hope your celebrations are second to none.
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night!

So far we have planted 210 trees in our carbon offset mission!

On top of that our tickets create 220x less carbon than standard email tickets (and that's in a BEST case scenario 😳)
