TikoHUB
A TikoHUB-powered festival in motion

About TikoHUB

We power the
experiences that move
East Africa.

TikoHUB is the ticketing and event platform built for the way our region actually goes out — fan-first, organizer-friendly, and on the ground at every show we power.

Our mission

Make every day an adventure — and every event worth showing up for.

We combine seamless ticketing, real-time analytics, and on-ground event support to create a smooth experience for both fans and organizers. We don't just sell tickets — we help build the moments people remember.

Our story

From a side projectto the region's ticketing layer.

Three organizers got tired of platforms built somewhere else. So we built one for the people we actually throw events for.

  1. 2023

    Founded in Mombasa

    Three event organizers, one shared frustration with the tools available locally.

  2. 2024

    First festival, sold out

    Our first multi-day pass system shipped — and the gates moved twice as fast.

  3. 2025

    Crossed borders

    Launched in Kampala, Kigali and Dar es Salaam with on-ground partners in each city.

  4. 2026

    50,000 tickets and counting

    Now powering nightlife, sports, theatre, and corporate experiences across the region.

What we believe

Four principles, every decision.

Fans first

We design every checkout, gate-flow and notification around the person holding the ticket.

Built for Africa

M-Pesa, card, and cash flows. Realistic data plans. Real venues. We solve for here.

Trust at every touchpoint

Clear pricing, no resellers, secure tickets in the app. The basics, done seriously.

Move fast, support harder

Our team is on-site on event day. If something needs solving, we're already there.

How it works
