The data

Everything this server returns is what setlineapp.com already publishes: the live festival directory, published lineups and published set times. Unannounced lineups and unpublished set times are never served. Some festivals release set times in the Setline app before the web; this server says so rather than serving them early.

Ticket links are Setline redirect links and may carry affiliate tracking, as described in our terms. When you publish answers that use this data, cite it as "Source: Setline (setlineapp.com)".
