## About

Fever is a live entertainment ticketing and events-discovery platform available on iOS, Android and the web. Wikipedia lists its founders as Alexandre Perez Casares, Francisco Hein, Ignacio Bachiller and Pep Gomez, and says it was founded in 2012 with offices and headquarters in Madrid, London and New York. It also provides ticketing, marketing and technology services to event organisers, and lists categories including Candlelight concerts and immersive experiences. Fever has raised substantial venture funding. Wikipedia records a $227 million round led by Goldman Sachs in January 2022 at a $1 billion valuation and a further $110 million round in January 2023 at $1.8 billion. In June 2025 it acquired the British ticketing platform DICE, a day after announcing a funding round of more than $100 million led by L Catterton and Point72. For the dating industry, Fever matters as a competitor and comparison for apps adding offline experiences. Dating Industry Insights described it in 2026 as an events platform that launched its own singles nights in 15 cities the previous year, as a platform seeing traction with offline dating concepts in major cities, and as one of the venture-backed experience platforms that Tinder's events push now sits alongside.
