Festivals & events

A site map that keeps up with a schedule that never stops moving

A festival site is rebuilt from nothing every edition and keeps changing once it opens — a set runs twenty minutes late, a vendor sells out, a gate closes for weather. A printed programme is wrong by lunchtime. This gives your team a map they can edit from a phone in the production office or out on the field, and gives every attendee the current version the moment they open it.

Set times that can actually change

A delayed set or a headliner swap is a two-tap edit from a phone — not a reprinted programme insert or a queue at the info tent.

Built fresh each edition, fast

The site boundary and your categories carry over year to year; only stage and vendor positions need placing on the new layout, which is a couple of hours, not a rebuild from scratch.

Find water, food and first aid without asking

Facilities are searchable and shown by type, so "where’s the nearest water refill" stops being a question for your stewarding team.

What you'd set up

You define your own categories and the fields each one carries. These are the ones venues like yours usually start with — nothing here is fixed, and you can change it later.

Bringing what you already have

Lineup and vendor lists usually already exist in a spreadsheet or a ticketing platform export. Bring that in as CSV for the first pass, then place stages and stalls on the ground plan once the layout is fixed for the edition.

Questions we get

Our event only runs for a weekend — is this worth setting up?
The boundary and your categories are reused every edition, so after the first year it is mostly repositioning stages and vendors on the new layout, not starting over. Most events spend well under a day on this.
Can we update the map live from the site during the event?
Yes — the editor works from a phone, so a stage delay or a closed gate can be edited from wherever your team is standing, not just from a production office.
Some vendors are only booked for one day of a multi-day event.
Publish and unpublish per vendor as the day changes — visitors only ever see what is actually open right now, not the full weekend roster.
Do we need signal on-site for this to work?
Once a visitor has loaded the map, browsing and search keep working — useful on a large field site where signal is patchy in the middle of a crowd.
