Abstract
Traditional ticketing systems are at risk of fraud, counterfeiting, and issues concerning scalability. In this research, we investigate the application of blockchain technology towards the revolutionary concept of event tickets. We analyze how fundamental attributes of blockchain technology, such as immutability, transparency, and decentralization, can be integrated in innovation to provide a secure, efficient, and reliable ecosystem. This research will examine smart contracts, self-executing scripts on the blockchain, as a viable solution for the creation, ownership, and transferability of tickets. A case study approach focusing on existing blockchain ticketing solutions will be used to identify and evaluate best practices through effective systems. This research seeks to demonstrate the disruptive capabilities of blockchain technology in the ticketing sector. From strategically incorporating blockchain technology, we seek to improve security, drastically lower fraudulent activities, and establish trust between ticket buyers and event organizers for a streamlined and optimally secure ticketing process.
