Overview
Concerts & Live Events Aggregator Scraper
Scrape live events, concerts, and streams from Bandsintown, Resident Advisor, Twitch, Kick, and Mixcloud in one run. Feed it an artist, venue, or creator name and get back every matching show, stream, or event with date, venue, and source link. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.
Tracking an artist across five different platforms means opening five tabs, running five searches, and stitching the results together by hand. This Actor queries Bandsintown, Resident Advisor, Twitch, Kick, and Mixcloud in parallel for the same artist, venue, or keyword, and returns every match in one uniform dataset. Pick the sources you care about, set a cap on total events, and let the run collect the rest.
| Who uses it | What they scrape Concerts & Live Events Aggregator for |
|---|---|
| Music marketers | Build a complete tour calendar for an artist across ticketing and streaming platforms. |
| Talent buyers | Check where a touring act is already booked and which rooms they play. |
| Streaming analysts | Correlate a creator's live-stream schedule on Twitch and Kick with their Mixcloud show drops. |
| Event curators | Pull every Resident Advisor listing for a city or club name into a weekly digest. |
What it does
This Actor collects live concerts, club events, and live streams from five major event and streaming platforms for a given artist, venue, or keyword, and returns each match as a flat row.
- 🎸 Multi-source parallel search: one artist or keyword fires queries to Bandsintown, Resident Advisor, Twitch, Kick, and Mixcloud at the same time.
- 🔀 Pick your platforms: toggle individual sources on or off so you only pay for the data you need.
- 📅 Live and upcoming events only: returns concerts, club nights, and streams that are scheduled or currently live, not historical archives.
- 🧾 Uniform flat schema: every event, regardless of source, lands in the same columns so you can sort and filter across platforms.
Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.

Troubleshooting
Why am I getting no results for my artist?
Check that the artist has upcoming events listed on the sources you enabled. Try enabling all five sources first, then narrow down. Also verify the spelling of the artist or venue name.
Why does Resident Advisor return events that do not seem to match my artist?
Resident Advisor applies search terms loosely to event titles and descriptions. A search for a common word may return broader club listings. Use a more specific artist or venue name to tighten the results.
The run stopped before collecting all events I expected.
Check the 'Maximum events' setting. If it is set to a low number, the Actor stops early. Raise the cap and re-run.
Can I get more than one million events?
The maximum per run is one million events. If you need more, split your query into narrower searches or run the Actor multiple times with different date ranges or keywords.
Why is my Twitch or Kick search returning an empty list?
The streamer may not be live at the moment and may not have a scheduled stream. The Actor returns currently live and upcoming streams only. Try again when the creator is active or has announced their next stream.
FAQ
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Which platforms does this Actor search? | It searches Bandsintown for concerts, Resident Advisor for club events, Twitch and Kick for live streams, and Mixcloud for creator shows. You can enable any combination of the five. |
| Can I search for a venue instead of an artist? | Yes. The query field accepts artist names, venue names, or general keywords. Resident Advisor and Bandsintown both handle venue-style queries well. |
| Does this Actor return past events or only upcoming ones? | It returns events and streams that are currently live or scheduled for the future. Historical archives are not included. |
| How do I limit the number of results? | Set the 'Maximum events' field to any number between 1 and 1,000,000. The Actor stops collecting once it hits that total across all enabled sources. |
| Can I run this for multiple artists in one go? | One run handles one query string. To process a list of artists, feed the list into an Apify workflow or call the Actor once per artist via the API. |
| What does the output schema look like? | Every row is a flat object with fields for event name, date, venue, source platform, and a direct link to the original listing. The exact field list is shown in the sample output on the Actor's page. |
| Is authentication required for any of these platforms? | No. The Actor reads publicly available event and stream listings. You do not need to log in or provide API keys. |
| Does this work for Twitch and Kick streamers who are not musicians? | Yes. The query field accepts any creator handle. If you search a gaming streamer, you will get their live schedule from Twitch and Kick, and the other sources will return empty. |
| How are Resident Advisor events matched when I search an artist name? | Resident Advisor applies the query loosely. Searching an artist name may return events where that artist is playing, but it can also return broader club listings that mention the term. |
| What export formats are supported? | You can export the dataset to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML directly from the Apify platform. |
