See Tickets' price for one ticket includes its booking fee. It then adds an order fee to each booking (an order processing fee, a transaction fee or both), set event by event: from £1.25 to £4.00 on the events I checked. You'll see the total before you pay.
About the event
From See Tickets's listing
Join us in Pompey on the 22nd of October for a special independent band night. We have three local Portsmouth-based bands on the bill, as well as alternative musician and event host Charlie Smith. If you like to support unsigned bands and check out some local talent on the music scene, this is the event for you. This event is part of the 'When I grow up I don't want to be anything at all tour' which seeks to promote local grassroots music, not only by featuring talented musicians but also by fundraising for the music venue trust. Charlie Smith will be donating £1 for every album and T-shirt sale to support the vital work that they do. Thanks in advance for your support. Tickets are priced at £8 ADV and £10 OTD, with all profits from the event going to the bands playing on the bill. Come along and support the local scene. Tea With Florence Five lads from Portsmouth playing alt rock bangers. Formed from humble-pop-project-beginnings in 2022, Tea With Florence has grown into a chaotic ensemble of alt rock power that has stomped around Portsmouth since. Followers of melodic principles blending dynamics both subtle smooth, and thrashing trash; while being supported by a rhythm section that likes a dirty groove. We aim to have fun and break your heart. Previously loved at Icebreaker Festival, Recfest, Express FM and across Portsmouth and Brighton. For fans of Nothing But Thieves, Foals and Wunderhorse.…

How I list these
Everything here comes from the feeds of the ticket and experience sellers I work with: See Tickets. That's a lot, but it isn't everything on in Portsmouth: venues that sell their own tickets, or sell through sellers whose feeds don't reach me, won't show here yet.
Events are in date order, and a show on several dates appears once, on its first, with how many more there are. Things to do any day start with the seller's own UK picks, then those rated 4.5 or more, guided before self-guided, shared before private, then by rating and price. Every ticket link is an ad: if you buy, the seller may pay me commission, at no cost to you. Commission never changes what's listed or the order.
A price is the seller's lowest for one ticket (or one person, when two book a tour together), as its feed gives it, and I've checked on each seller's own pages what it covers. See Tickets's includes its booking fee, and it adds an order fee to each booking (£1.25 to £4 on the events I checked), which I show beside the price. Where I haven't checked what a seller's price covers, or its feed is more than a day and a half old, I show no price at all.
I don't list resold tickets for football in England and Wales, or for any match in a UEFA or FIFA competition: selling or advertising them without the organiser's permission is a crime (section 166 of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994). Times are UK times. Events change and sell out, so the seller's page is the final word.
