Frequently Asked Questions

What is the cost to create a festival app?

Festival app pricing can vary depending on your events’ specifications. To get accurate pricing, it’s best to speak with an expert who can suggest a personalized quote for an app that suits your needs. Contact [email protected] for more information about vFairs app pricing.

How is a festival app different from an event app?

Festival apps are event apps, but are customized to suit your specific events’ needs. Features such as white labeling, sponsorship opportunities, custom agendas, event management, and attendee management offer a more tailored experience for festival planners pre, during, and post-event.

What features do I get in a festival app?

Festival apps include features that support attendee check-in, agenda management, sponsorships and exhibitor booths, networking, gamification, and more. Festival apps also offer custom branding options, either by configuring colors and imagery, or by creating a completely white labeled app.

How long does it take to get a festival app ready?

Development timeline will depend on the customizations your festival app requires. But, with vFairs you could start configuring your custom app in minutes by using our drag and drop app builder. Contact us to learn more and get a live demo of our custom app builder.

How can attendees download my festival app?

If you are developing an app through the vFairs platform, your attendees can download the vFairs app through the Apple App Store and Google Play Store, and login to your event using their credentials. If you are creating a white-labeled app through vFaris, you will get a custom download link for your attendees to access once the app is developed.
