For food festivals
Great vendors, sold-out sessions, a gate that flows
A food festival lives on its line-up of vendors and dies in its queues. Popup Pal curates the first and kills the second, with applications, pitch fees, session tickets and scanning in one place.
3.5% + 50p per paid ticket, all-in. Free events are free. No monthly fee to start.
Vendor applications with the paperwork built in
Your application form collects it all up front: hygiene ratings, allergen information, gas and electrical certificates, menu photos. Balance the line-up from one inbox (not five burger vans, one bakery) and accept with a click that sends the pitch invoice automatically.
Pitch fees and percentages made simple
Charge flat pitch fees invoiced online, from small pitch to large pitch with power, and watch payment status from the dashboard. Traders pay by card into your Stripe account weeks before the festival, so your cash flow isn’t waiting on show day takings.
Sessions and tastings that sell out safely
Timed entry sessions, tasting masterclasses and kids’ workshops each get their own ticket type with a hard capacity, so oversold tastings are physically impossible. When a vendor sells out or a session moves, a live announcement reaches every ticket holder instantly.
On the day, your team scans QR tickets from their own phones at every entrance and box office mode handles walk-ups. The Pro floor plan keeps generator runs, vendor pitches and seating areas on one live map.
