Abstract

Smart contracts, a key innovation of blockchain technology, are digital agreements that automatically execute predefined terms. These contracts are secure, decentralized, transparent, and immutable, making them suitable for a range of sectors, including event ticket sales, where they can streamline transactions and reduce fraud. This project explores using smart contracts for event ticket sales and marketing, aiming to reduce ticket speculation and paper redundancies. A prototype system was developed with Solidity on the Ethereum blockchain, tested locally, and integrated with a Vue.js frontend, a MySQL database, and a simulated cryptocurrency wallet via Ganache. The system is designed to serve stakeholders such as ticket sellers, buyers, and event organizers. The results demonstrate the feasibility of using blockchain for transparent and efficient ticketing processes. While currently limited to a local environment, it provides a foundation for future enhancements and broader adoption. This project highlights blockchain’s potential to transform event ticketing, ensuring security, scalability, and user trust.
