SmartGig

Event management software for festivals, markets and shows.

SmartGig puts trader applications, ticketing, stage schedules, transport and site plans in one shared workspace. When someone asks how many tickets have sold, whether the burger van has paid, who’s on stage at four, when the generator arrives or where the first-aid tent goes, there’s one place to look. Nobody retypes the same details into three spreadsheets, and the office and the event-day crew work from the same version.

Choose the modules your event needs:

• Trader Manager: Take trader and stallholder applications, check insurance and other documents, track pitch fees, chase what’s unpaid and check traders in on the day. Records and forms carry over to your next event.

• Ticketing: Sell day, weekend and session tickets, with allocated seating, discounts, comps and refunds. Tickets go into Apple Wallet and Google Wallet, so nobody’s scrolling through their email at the gate. SmartGig takes no commission on tickets; subscription and payment-provider fees apply.

• Stage Manager: Artist details, tech riders and set times in one place. Plan across stages and days, spot timing clashes early and publish the current running order to the crew.

• Transport Manager: Plan deliveries and collections around vehicles, loads, access and time windows. Check routes before dispatch and send jobs to drivers in the SmartGig Driver app. Integrates with Current RMS to bring in your existing jobs.

• Site Plan: Draw your layout in 2D or 3D over a map or floor plan. Place pitches, stages and facilities, allocate traders and share the published plan with staff, traders and suppliers.

SmartGig works for one-off, multi-day and recurring events, from craft and food fairs to festivals, exhibitions and ticketed shows. The office team and the event-day crew work from the same information, with shared documents, messages, team permissions and reports. The SmartGig Scanner app checks in traders and ticket holders on iPhone and Android.

Start with whatever’s causing the most headaches and add modules later. Monthly and annual plans, a 14-day free trial and no card required.
