Get an email when timed museum or attraction tickets open
Museums, observation decks and popular exhibits sell timed entry slots, and a day can show sold out for weeks while single slots return after cancellations. Sold Out Alert watches the ticket page for the date, time window and number of visitors you need. It emails you when a slot that fits becomes available.
What you can watch
- Two entry tickets for Saturday between 10am and 1pm
- Any time slot on a weekday for a group of four
- A sunset slot at the observation deck next Friday
- Tickets to the special exhibition in the last week of its run
- A morning slot with a free-entry day pass for a child
How it works
Paste the link to the ticket page and say which dates, time window and number of tickets would work for you.
Sold Out Alert reads the page once, shows you what it will check, and tells you whether the page can be tracked before you start.
When a slot that matches appears, you get an email with the link. You pick it and pay yourself.
We alert you by email; you book it yourself. Sold Out Alert never logs into your accounts or buys anything for you. Plans start at $9 a month with a 7-day free trial.
Questions
- Will Sold Out Alert buy the tickets for me?
- No. It does not log in, hold a slot or check out. It emails you when the page shows a matching slot and you buy it yourself. Slots that come back are often taken quickly, so nothing is guaranteed.
- Can I watch for a specific exhibition?
- Yes, when the exhibition has its own ticket page or its own option on the page. Name it in your request so the watch ignores general admission.
- How many tickets can it look for?
- Say how many you need, such as four together, and the watch counts only time slots with enough tickets left, not a single leftover seat.
- What if the ticket page can't be watched?
- Some ticket pages use waiting rooms, sign-ins or other protections against automated checking, and pages behind a login cannot be watched. Sold Out Alert checks the page before you start and tells you whether it can be tracked. Checks run from every 5 minutes on the lowest plan to every 1 minute on the highest.
