Bangladesh's home for independent art.
Music, film, visual art, theatre, spoken word — free ticketing for organisers, honest prices for audiences, more money in the hands of the artists who actually make the night happen.
A platform that takes nothing, and gives the room back to the artists.
Organisers list free
Zero commission. Zero listing fee. Publish your show in minutes and keep ownership of your audience data.
Audiences pay how they want
bKash, cash on the door, or card. No surprise service fees stacked on top at checkout.
Artists keep more
Money flows to the people on stage, not the platform. We're a non-profit. That's the entire point.
Upcoming nights.
Put on the show. We'll handle the door.
We charge zero commission — not "low fees", actually zero. bKash is built in, settlements are next-day, and you get a real audience list at the end of every show.

Artists we've shared a room with.
Bengal Indie Rising is a non-profit building free ticketing infrastructure for Bangladesh's independent art community — music, film, visual art, theatre, spoken word. We don't take a commission and we don't intend to.
Our bKash partnership keeps payments local and frictionless. Our model is artist-first: more of every ticket reaches the people on stage. Beyond ticketing, we curate song-themed drinks at partner venues, run small-batch artist merch drops, and put indie artists on Dhaka's streets through our MarketUP out-of-home network.
We are a small team. We exist because the scene exists.
