Who are Lyte?

In 2012, Lyte founder Ant Taylor attended a sold-out Olympic Games event with half-empty stands while hundreds of desperate fans stood outside seeking tickets. Inspired by this experience, Ant created Lyte to allow fans to easily return tickets they couldn't use and help other fans get verified tickets to events of their dreams.

Lyte enables event organisers, venues and artists to enhance their ticketing, ensure shows are full and keep fans happy by providing a safe, official reservation system whilst allowing fans to return tickets to the official point of purchase for a fair price.
