For festivals and large public events
Scale up to 100+ traders without losing control.
A festival multiplies everything: more traders, more paperwork, more that can go wrong on the day. Keep bookings, documents, passes and briefings in one place.
Everything is bigger
A hundred traders across several areas
Food court, craft village, bars. Each with its own prices and its own contact, tracked in separate lists.
Briefings nobody reads
Hours go into the briefing document. Half the questions on the day are answered in it.
Compliance at scale
One trader without valid insurance, in front of ten thousand people. Checking by hand stops being realistic.
Dropouts two days before
A confirmed stall pulls out and you need a replacement who is booked, paid and briefed by Friday.
How MRKT Manager helps
Pitches grouped by area
Tag pitches by area or type, give each its own price, and see the whole site on one calendar.
One brief to everyone booked
Arrival times, pitch, site rules and contacts, sent to every booked trader from a template.
Documents checked before the gates open
One page shows every booked trader with a missing, rejected or expiring document, with bulk reminders.
Messages to a group
Message one trader, a tagged group or everyone at a market day, by email and in their dashboard.
Passes and gate scanning
Issue passes for traders, staff, press and guests with tiers and zones, and scan them on arrival.
Arrivals across the site
Your team marks traders as arrived on their phones, so everyone sees who’s still missing.
Questions
Can MRKT Manager handle a festival with over 100 traders?
Yes. Pricing is per booking and falls as volume rises, and above 1,000 bookings a month the price is agreed individually. Bookings can be confirmed and invoiced in bulk.
Does it handle accreditation and passes?
Yes, as an optional module: ticket tiers with zone access, public request forms for staff, press and guests, and scanning at the gate. It does not sell tickets to the public.
Is there an app for the event team?
There is no native iOS or Android app. MRKT Manager is a website that works on a phone and can be installed to the home screen, with push notifications for the team.
