Meta ads for events and tickets

Meta ads for events and ticket sales in Nigeria

Events are a race to a date. Your ad should say what, when, where, how much, and why people should not wait.

Free to start. Three ads, an audience, a 3-day test plan and WhatsApp scripts, in naira.

What buyers need to see

  • Date, time and venue in the first lines
  • Ticket price and what it includes
  • Who will be there: speaker, host or line-up
  • How to buy a ticket

Audience starting points

  • People in the city and the surrounding areas who can reach the venue
  • Age and interests matched to the event
  • Lookalikes from past attendees once you have a list
  • Exclude people who already bought
Angles to test

Three ways to say it.

Illustrative hooks. Oasis writes full ads for your business, with your price and place.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Starting ads too late
  • Hiding the price
  • Using one ad for the whole campaign instead of testing
When should I start advertising?

Start well before the date so you have time to test and adjust. Oasis builds a 3-day test you can run first.

Can I retarget people who showed interest?

Yes. Oasis suggests retargeting steps in the audience plan.

What should my WhatsApp replies say?

Confirm the date and price, then send the payment details. Oasis drafts these.

Try it with your own offer.

It takes about a minute. Then test the ads for 3 days before you scale.
