Eventbrite reels in 2020 forecasts in light of event cancellations due to coronavirus. Despite performing better than expected in 2019's fourth quarter, the company's recent stock performance indicates a lack of confidence from investors.

Eventbrite is getting slammed by investors as costs mount from integrating Ticketfly. The company's core ticketing business is strong, though. It needs to bring new event technology products to market once the Ticketfly quagmire ends.

Is the bottom falling out for Eventbrite? Not really, but it needs to turn a corner soon to make investors more confident in its future. It takes time and money to build a global platform, and it looks like Eventbrite could be running out of time.

Event planners are being tasked with producing more events with limited resources. Better technology can help them maximize their marketing efforts, but word of mouth remains the most effective at attracting attendees to an event.
