Raise the hall
Two hundred trade stands, five gates, one system
A county show is a small town that exists for a weekend. Popup Pal gives your society one place for trade stand applications, showground planning and gate tickets, with a team login for everyone who helps run it.
Plans from £9.99/month, excluding VAT, priced by capacity rather than by features. Popup Pal takes 0% of your stall money and adds no per-stall fee. Stripe bills its own processing to your account, exactly as it does for any business using Stripe.
Book a demoTrade stand applications at scale
Set up the craft marquee, food hall, machinery rows and countryside area as separate stand categories, each with its own price and capacity. Hundreds of applications sort themselves into one inbox your committee can work through together, with notes on every application, kept with the event record.
A showground plan that isn’t a laminated map
Draw the showground once: avenues, marquees, rings and pitches. Drag accepted traders onto their pitches and the plan updates live. No more version-seventeen PDF. Your stewards see the same plan on their phones at setup.
Gate day without gate chaos
Advance tickets scan from any steward’s phone across every gate at once, each scan marked so nobody gets in twice. Box office mode handles the cash-paying regulars, and live announcements reach every ticket holder when the main ring schedule slips.
Gate-ticket money and stand fees both pay out through your own Stripe account and reconcile automatically in Popup Pal. We take 0% of the stand fees and add no per-stand fee, with Stripe’s processing charged separately, at cost, on your own account. A show this size usually wants Max, which lifts the caps on events, confirmed stalls and team members; everyone gets their own login with owner, admin and staff roles.
