Giggster Venue Search

Giggster's search API is unauthenticated and much faster than browsing the site (hundreds of listings paged in the UI = a few API calls). Reverse-engineered June 2026 and verified working. If results ever come back empty or error, re-derive params from the live bundle: fetch any giggster.com/search page, grab /static/scripts/search.*.js, and look for the async function d({query... param builder near ft-search.
