Indicative figures

A festival makes its money on a handful of nights. That is where the bars have to fit the crowd.

One chance a year.

1 / 4

That is the problem.

A festival runs for a few days a year. That leaves a few hours to try something new – and a whole year before the answer comes. So most decisions are made on gut feeling.

2 / 4

Relay learns from you, year after year.

Every season becomes part of your festival’s memory: what you tried, what it gave, and what you changed the year after. The lessons build on each other instead of disappearing when the rota is packed away.

3 / 4

And from other festivals – adapted to you.

Every festival is described in the same festival model: bars, zones, programme, crowd and hours. So Relay can model another festival’s lesson into your context – your size, site and programme. Personal data is deleted. The lessons stay.

4 / 4

Into ranges you can act on.

Many factors are in play: ticket sales, programme, weather, site and the other vendors. We give a range based on data – and put your own decision margin on top, say 12.5 %, so the recommendation fits the risk you want to take.

Festivals

A few days and big sums. Learn from every hour – and from the other festivals.

Venues

Many nights a year. Every night becomes a test the next one can build on.

Event agencies

Many events and formats. The lessons travel from one to the next.

A layer of numbers over the festival.

We lay your sales on top of the site, hour by hour and bar by bar. So you can see what you only sense today: where people gave up on the queue, and where volunteers stood waiting.

Less guessing.

You and your vendors no longer have to guess how much food and drink to bring. Every vendor gets a range for every day – with the reasoning behind it, so everyone can see exactly why we recommend it.

How we get to the number

Sold last SaturdayBrought 2,600 and drove 500 home.2,100
The pizza truck won’t sell out this year−180

Last year about 180 guests bought a burger because the pizza was gone at 21:00. With two extra ovens that won’t happen again.

Your sales data

New falafel stand on the food street−50

Similar stands at other festivals took 2–3 % of the food sales around them.

Learned from other festivals

More tickets for Saturday+105

Saturday ticket sales are 5 % ahead of the same time last year.

Ticket sales

EstimateBrought last year: 2,6001,850–2,100

The estimates hang together: when the pizza truck gets more ovens, the burger stand sells fewer burgers. So we calculate the whole festival at once – not one vendor at a time.

Volunteers that follow the crowd

More where the queues will be. Fewer where they won’t – with the same number of shifts.

Terminals where they pay

More payment terminals where the queues were. Fewer where capacity stood empty.
