LOCAL SEAT FILLING

OTL (aka On the List) supports the Austin arts and entertainment community

Seat Fillers in Austin

OTL members in Austin enjoy access to all kinds of fun shows, events, and opportunities through their membership. Seat fillers get to treat guests, get out of the house more, and enjoy complimentary ticket invitations when available. It’s also just fun to see what pops up!

Event Promoters in Austin

Event promoters and marketing specialists have a free and private way to fill seats or attract new patrons. Plays and musicals are offered more than anything. However, OTL isn't limited to traditional shows! Comedy, music, virtual events, fairs and festivals, conferences, movies, escape rooms, golf, classes, anything goes!

How it Works

  1. Pick a 2 or 4-seat plan
  2. Register, setting up a username and password for the private VIP-only area
  3. When a show pops up that you want to attend, make a reservation in the private VIP area
  4. Pick up your complimentary tickets at the Box Office right before the show
  5. You and your guest(s) are seated together
  6. Repeat for other shows you want to attend (but please understand that, as a seat fillers club, events are not always available)

Thanks for having such a great service!  I have experienced so many cool events and none of which I would have thought to go to without my membership.  You have successfully removed me from my seat at home and placed me in a considerably more entertaining seat!

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I be a seat filler in Austin?

Becoming an Austin, Texas-area seat filler is as easy as picking a 2-seat or 4-seat plan on OTLSeatFillers.com.

What's the difference between an awards-show seat filler and an Austin seat filler?

They've got an exciting mission, but seat fillers for award shows (Oscars, Emmys, Grammys, and BAFTAs) are there to do a job. They temporarily fill in empty seats for celebrities. OTL Seat Fillers might not be rubbing elbows with celebs, but they're there to enjoy the show. They receive pairs of free tickets by private invitation from Austin area venues. And they're treated just like every other audience member.

What types of shows do OTL seat fillers in Austin attend?

Theatre reigns supreme, but OTL seat fillers are invited to a wide variety of local events. In addition to plays, musicals, comedy shows, and music events, they've attended sporting events, classes, wine tastings, escape rooms, movies, and film screenings, book signings, lectures, and more.

How much do seat fillers in Austin pay for tickets?

OTL seat fillers do not purchase individual tickets through the club. Instead, they pay low monthly or quarterly membership dues for access to the members-only area and the opportunity to receive complimentary ticket invitations when available. Dues are also discounted for seniors, military, first responders, and educators.

What are the benefits of seat filling in Austin?

OTL Austin seat fillers are part of a membership-based seat fillers club that helps members discover fun things to do in their hometown. Members will receive complimentary ticket invitations when available, often bringing family and friends along, depending on their plan. Seat fillers also love being introduced to shows and events they might not have attended otherwise, along with the surprise of seeing what pops up.

Why do representatives from Austin area shows, events, and activities use local seat fillers?

Local seat-filling is an effective event partnership marketing tool. Teaming up with OTL Seat Fillers is a free, private, and easy way to fill seats. But seat fillers do more than just fill those seats. They buy food, beverages, and merchandise, bring guests above and beyond their seat-filling privileges, and tend to return to venues they love (even without comp tickets!). Additionally, inviting Austin seat fillers is a great way to build a marketing list for future events.

How do Austin promoters and marketers invite seat fillers?

It's simple, as OTL has an event promoter page with an online event submission form. After a new partner submits a form, OTL follows up to confirm the process. The show is then posted in the private members-only area so members can make reservations. It's partnership marketing at its best! No tickets or money are ever exchanged, as OTL compiles a reservation list, and seat fillers check in at the venue right before the show.
