Hi Alex,
Thanks for getting in touch. You have impeccable timing! We are close to releasing a new plugin called Community Tickets which allows you to do exactly what you describe. Community Tickets requires our Community Tickets and WooCommerce Tickets plugins, and allows visitors to your site to submit ticketed events. Site admins can then approve the events and collect ticket sales.
Although this plugin is not available quite yet, we are running a beta test for it- and we’d love to have you join! You can register for the beta here. You’ll be able to not only test out the plugin, but also impact the final version! We’d love to have your feedback.
Best,
Leah
