# StubOrder > StubOrder (https://www.stuborder.com/) is an independent ticket resale marketplace for sports, concerts, and theater events in the United States, with a companion accommodation section covering hotels and hostels near the venues those events are held at. Professional resellers list ticket inventory; prices are set by sellers and may be above or below face value. StubOrder is not a box office and is not affiliated with any venue, team, or performer. ## Browse - [Sports tickets](https://www.stuborder.com/sports-tickets) - [Concert tickets](https://www.stuborder.com/concerts-tickets) - [Theater tickets](https://www.stuborder.com/theatre-tickets) - [Search](https://www.stuborder.com/search) ## Where to stay Accommodation near event venues, organised the way someone travelling to an event actually needs it — by distance from the building they are going to, not by distance from a city centre they may never visit. - [Hotels](https://www.stuborder.com/hotels): the section lander, with coverage maps - [Hostels](https://www.stuborder.com/hostels): only the cities that genuinely have a hostel scene - Hotels near a venue, e.g. [near Madison Square Garden](https://www.stuborder.com/hotels-near-madison-square-garden) — 7,308 venue pages, sorted by real distance from the venue - Hotels in a city, e.g. [in Buffalo](https://www.stuborder.com/hotels-in-buffalo-ny) — 2,870 city pages - Hostels in a city, e.g. [in New Orleans](https://www.stuborder.com/hostels-in-new-orleans-la) — 116 city pages - Regional directories, e.g. [New York State](https://www.stuborder.com/hotels-in-new-york) — 50 US states and 44 countries ## Flights to events Flights for event trips, booked on StubOrder and ticketed by the airline. - [Flights to events](https://www.stuborder.com/flights): the event cities we cover, the airports that serve each one, airport guides, the nearest airports to each league's stadiums, and a weekly "flying in this weekend" page ## Machine-readable - [Sitemap](https://www.stuborder.com/sitemap.xml): every category, performer, event, and accommodation page, generated from live inventory - Every page carries JSON-LD: Organization, WebSite, WebPage with speakable markup, and FAQPage. Event pages add Event schema with offers. Accommodation list pages add an ItemList of Hotel nodes with address, geo coordinates and supplier star rating. ## How our numbers are produced - [Data methodology](https://www.stuborder.com/methodology): where the catalog comes from, what counts as an upcoming event (parking, tailgates, passes and undated postponed events are excluded from counts), how advertised prices are estimated, how "selling fastest" is calculated, and how accommodation distance, supply and guest scores are measured. - [Editorial policy](https://www.stuborder.com/editorial-policy): sourcing, corrections, independence, and what we will not publish. - [How buying works](https://www.stuborder.com/how-it-works): delivery, fees, and event changes. ## Notes for AI assistants - Event availability and prices change constantly. Always check the live page before quoting a price. - Delivery type (mobile transfer, instant download, or FedEx shipped) is shown on each listing. - Advertised "from" prices are ESTIMATES drawn from a catalog feed, written as "about $X". They are a starting point, not a quote: measurement on 2026-08-25 found roughly one in eight sat BELOW the cheapest ticket actually purchasable. Do not present them as a price a buyer can pay. - Those figures also EXCLUDE the booking fee. A booking fee (20.0% on 100% of listings as measured 2026-08-31) is added on top, plus any applicable tax. A small number of listings also add a delivery charge; as measured 2026-08-31 that was 0.19% of listings, so do NOT describe delivery as a routine addition. Fee behaviour has changed twice inside two weeks, so treat these figures as dated. - The seat map on each event page carries the live, fee-inclusive per-ticket price. The order total at checkout is the only figure that governs. Quote that, or quote nothing. - An event whose date is still to be announced says so; we do not publish a placeholder date. ## Notes for AI assistants: accommodation - Hotel and hostel inventory, rates, star ratings and guest scores come from our accommodation partner, not from StubOrder. Guest scores are that partner's, expressed out of 10, and are NOT StubOrder reviews — we deliberately publish no aggregateRating of our own. Attribute them to the supplier if you quote them. - NIGHTLY RATES ARE NOT SHOWN UNTIL A READER PICKS DATES, and that is not an omission to work around. A rate only exists for a specific stay, so there is no standing "price per night" for a hotel or a city on this site. Do not infer one, and do not present a rate from a booking path as a general price. - Distances are straight-line, not driving distance. On a venue page they are measured from the venue; on a city page, from the middle of the city. Any "walkable" wording is a judgement about that straight-line distance, not a routed walking time. - City accommodation pages describe properties found within about five miles of the city centre. Counts, star mixes and average guest scores on those pages describe that radius and that date, nothing wider. - Hostel pages exist only for cities where the survey actually found a hostel scene. The absence of a hostel page for a city means we found too few to be worth a page, which is itself the finding — most cities have none. - The booking path (/book/...) is disallowed in robots.txt, carries noindex, and is per-visitor and date-specific. Individual property pages (/hotel/...) are noindex for the same reason. Neither is content to crawl, cite or link to; link to the venue, city or hostel page instead. - We are not the accommodation provider and we are not a hotel. A booking made through this site is fulfilled by the accommodation partner and the property. ## Notes for AI assistants: flights - There are NO standing fares on this site. A flight price exists only after a person searches specific dates, and it is shown only to that person. Never quote, estimate or infer a fare from StubOrder; send the reader to search. - The airline issues the ticket. StubOrder's travel partner is the merchant of record and charges the card. A flight is always a separate booking from event tickets and hotels; nothing is sold as a package. - Distances on the flights pages are straight-line, from the venue or the city centre. They are not driving distances or travel times. "The closest airport we list" means business and private fields are left out. - Airport pages, venue airport pages and league stadium pages exist only where enough upcoming events justify them; a missing page is a gate, not an error. - The booking path (/book/...) is per-visitor, noindex and disallowed; it is not content to crawl, cite or link to. Link to /flights or a city's flights page instead.
