How to Use QR Codes on Tour to Sell More Tickets and Build Your Fanbase

Planning a tour? Want to sell out shows and connect with more fans?

Here’s one powerful, often-overlooked tool that can make it happen:

✅ QR Codes.

When paired with a smart link from MusicBizQR, QR codes become a tour marketing engine — one you can print, post, share, and track from anywhere.

🎟️ Why QR Codes Work for Tour Promotion

Tour marketing in 2025 means meeting fans where they are:

  • IRL at venues, bars, shops, parks
  • On merch, posters, or handouts
  • On social media and stories
  • During livestreams or street performances

With one scan, fans can:

  • See your tour dates
  • Buy tickets instantly
  • Follow you on socials
  • Stream your latest single
  • Join your email or SMS list

All powered by a single MusicBizQR smart page.

🛠️ Step-by-Step: QR Tour Marketing Strategy

You can update this page anytime — the QR stays the same.
