ticket example

When going to an event, it is customary to have some sort of voucher that certifies you have been invited to an event or that you have paid the amount for the entrance fee. Ticket Designs will be required before you are granted admission to the venue of the event. But besides an event, tickets can also be required before you can board transportation vehicles such as buses, airplanes, ships, etc. to make sure you have paid the sum for the fare.

Elements of a Ticket

For instances when you are in charge for planning an event, you have to know what elements or components you need to include in your ticket in order to make it effective. Here is a list of some of the elements found in a ticket:

  • Proper shape and size: Choose the shape and size of your ticket based on what can accommodate the words you are about to put in the ticket. It is important to make sure your ticket can hold all the information needed to grant one admission.
  • Pertinent information: A ticket is useless without the information needed to admit one to a venue or establishment. Make sure your ticket has the event/establishment/transportation name, date, time, venue and location, legal disclaimers, and so on.
  • Number of admission: There is a need to indicate the number of people that can be given admission with every ticket. Common examples of tickets usually have ‘Admit One’ plastered on its front side.
  • Design: Make the design of your ticket suitable to its intended purpose. If you want to collect a stub upon entrance, design a ticket with a removable stub. And for the layout design, make sure it reflects the event or purpose it will be used for.
