Terms
Use the site, be kind, check the door
Booth is an independent San Francisco nightlife guide, on the web and in the app. These are the basics of how to use it.
You must be 18 or older
Booth is for people 18 and over. By using Booth, you confirm that you are at least 18. If we learn that an account belongs to someone under 18, we will close it. Many shows are 21+, so check each event's age limit before you buy a ticket.
Listings are informational
We pull event information from public sources and clean it up. Dates, lineups, prices, and venues can change without warning. Always confirm on the official ticket link or venue page before you leave the house.
We are not affiliated
Booth is not affiliated with any venue, promoter, or artist listed on the site. We link to official ticket pages where possible but do not sell tickets or process refunds. Issues with an event, ticket, or entry are between you and the promoter/venue.
Acceptable use
Use the site for personal, non-commercial browsing. Do not scrape the site, re-host listings, or attempt to break the admin tools. We may rate-limit or block abusive traffic.
Plans and messages
You are responsible for what you send in plans and messages. Don't harass, threaten or demean anyone, and don't post hate, sexual content, spam or scams. Booth has zero tolerance for this: we may remove messages, take people out of plans, and suspend or delete accounts, without notice. You can block anyone and report a message or a person in the app; we review reports, usually within 48 hours. Photos in every chat are checked automatically for nudity, and messages in show chats for threats, hate, violence and sexual content involving minors. These checks are run by an automated program, not a person: it only tells us whether something looks inappropriate, and it doesn't keep what it checks.
Show chats are open to anyone at the show, so don't expect them to be private. A plan's chat becomes read-only 3 days after its show and closes 90 days after it. A direct message with a friend stays open while you're friends; if either of you unfriends or blocks the other, or deletes their account, it becomes read-only and closes 30 days later. Closing a chat or unsending a message takes it off your screen, but Booth keeps messages and photos so we can keep Booth safe and look into reports. If you delete your account, messages you already sent stay in those chats, shown as from a deleted user. See the privacy policy for how we use them.
Buying and selling tickets between people
Booth doesn't sell tickets, and we are not part of any sale, trade or transfer between people who meet or talk on Booth. We don't check that a ticket is real, valid, transferable or fairly priced, or that a buyer or seller is who they say they are. If you buy, sell or trade a ticket with someone you found through Booth, you do it at your own risk, and it is up to you to make sure the trade is safe. Booth is not responsible or liable for any loss, scam, fake or duplicate ticket, denied entry, chargeback or dispute that comes from it.
Be careful. Payments sent as friends and family (PayPal Friends and Family, Venmo, Cash App, Zelle) and crypto usually have no buyer protection and can't be reversed. Use a payment method with buyer protection, such as PayPal Goods and Services, or the event's official resale or transfer when it has one. Follow the event's and ticket seller's rules and the law. Don't sell fake or invalid tickets; we may remove those messages and suspend those accounts.
SMS program
Signing up for the Thursday text is opt-in and you can reply STOP at any time to cancel. Msg & data rates may apply. See the privacy policy for details on how we handle your number.
No warranty
Booth is provided as-is. We do our best to keep listings accurate but do not warrant that everything is current, complete, or error-free. Use your own judgement when planning a night out. To the fullest extent the law allows, Booth is not liable for what other people say or do, on Booth or off it, including anyone you meet, make plans with, or buy from or sell to.
Changes
We may update these terms as Booth evolves. Changes will be posted here with a new “last updated” date above, and we'll email you before a material change takes effect.
