This one needs environment variables set before it will start: VENUNITE_API_KEY (Optional VenuNite key. Anonymous access is shared-network fair use; signed-session limits apply only when the client persists its session. Free keys provide 5 tool calls/minute and 100/day per account, shared by that account's keys. Create one at https://venunite.com/developers/keys. Paid keys also unlock REST /v1/events. A portal-issued live key is required for create_ticket_handoff; search stays anonymous-capable. Handoffs require explicit user Continue to seller checkout and do not buy or reserve tickets.). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

events
search_events
Find events matching a user's natural-language request. Combines semantic search over venue vibes, geographic radius filtering, date/cost/category hard filters, and strict safety tags. Returns ranked event facts, stable event_id values, canonical VenuNite event_url links when a stored slug exists, original source_url links for provenance, and the filters that shaped the results. The legacy url field remains the original source. Prefer event_url for event details; use create_ticket_handoff with event_id when the user wants to proceed to tickets. Call this ONCE per user query with the structured args you inferred from their question — do not try to issue multiple speculative calls. The tool cannot buy tickets, create or modify events, edit calendars, or message organizers. Calls record private quota and request telemetry. An uncached place_name is sent to the public Nominatim geocoder. Tag vocabulary is fixed (49 canonical tags across 6 facets: ambiance, social, time, age, venue_type, activity). See the `vibe_tags` field description. Safety-critical tags (queer-friendly, family-friendly, all-ages, 18-plus, 21-plus) are hard filters: results that don't satisfy them are excluded entirely, never just down-ranked. family-friendly, all-ages, 18-plus and 21-plus are judged on each event's own audience and age policy, with the venue's tag counting only when the event's classification doesn't contradict it; queer-friendly is a venue tag. Only include a safety tag when the user's query explicitly requested it.
ticket
create_ticket_handoff
When the user wants to proceed to tickets for a specific search result, create an attributed VenuNite handoff using its event_id. Requires a live API key issued at https://venunite.com/developers/keys. Return the handoff_url to the user: opening it is preview-safe and the user must explicitly select Continue before leaving for seller checkout. Do not follow or submit the Continue form for the user. This tool records a handoff but does not purchase, reserve, hold inventory, guarantee availability or final prices, or confirm a booking. Calls count against normal MCP tool-call limits; no search-result rows are charged. The handoff service also limits creation to 10 per minute per account.

VenuNite Events — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can VenuNite Events do?
It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: create_ticket_handoff, search_events. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is VenuNite Events working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 87 of 91 checks got a reply (95.6%), average response time 637 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect VenuNite Events?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does VenuNite Events need an API key?
No. VenuNite Events completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 2 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is VenuNite Events?
It answers our handshake in 637 ms on average, which is faster than 21% of all working MCP servers we measure. That is on the slow side — worth knowing if the tool sits inside an interactive loop. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
How many people use VenuNite Events?
The pypi package venunite-events was installed 30 times in the last week. Week over week that is -12%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
