Hosting an Expo, Fair, Festival, Convention, Meet-Up, or Gathering of anytype?
Looking for a way to handle Admission Ticket Sales, Special Event Tickets, Exhibitor Tickets, Table Rentals, Booth Rentals, and/or Parking Passes?
Fest-Info.com has a terrific offer for your group: a full-featured web-based Event Management package… at no cost to your group!
You get:
- A custom website name, like MyClub.Fest-Info.com, dedicated to your group. No shared links!
- 24/7/365 point-and-click reservations and online ordering
- Live event maps show event layout and booth contents, directing attendees to areas of interest.
- ALL FREE TO THE CLUB!
Here’s how it works:
- Pick the names you call things. Do you provide booths? Tables? Locations? Are your resellers Vendors? Exhibitors? Crafters? We adjust everything to match your names!
- You select the name of the new website to be created. Pick from domains Fair-Information.com, Fest-Information.com, Show-Information.com, SwapFest-information.com, and Expo-Information.com. Add your group to the front (i.e. “MyClub.Fest-Information.com”) and we’ll do all the work to build the site.
- Upload an image showing the floor layout and a table containing the locations of each. We’ll process that into a professional-looking point-and-buy map on the Internet.
- Identify areas: Tables 93-99 are “Club Corner” and can’t be sold online. Booths 100-112 are the “Overflow Area” and can only be sold when we’ve sold out the other areas.
- Pricing can vary by area. Offer different classes of space to match different kinds of vendors.
- Need help with these steps? We can walk you through the whole process.
- We create the website, including live online point-and-click ordering for tables and tickets, right from the auto-updating floor map.
Here are some key features:

- “Who did we miss?” feature: Sent a message last week to all of the vendors; added two new today? One click catches the new entries up with the prior message.

- FREE TO THE CLUB!
- No charge for Cash transactions and mail-in checks.

- Payment processing delivers payments right into your bank account
- All online processing fees are charged to the attendee. The “Convenience Fee” changed to cover costs on all online and in-person sales is made up of 2 parts. Our order processing fee is calculated on a sliding basis and adds less than a dollar. The second part of the fee is the PayPal processing fee; PayPal charges $0.49 plus 3.49% per transaction.
- Typically, this will be between half and one-tenth of the charge to use the ATM in the lobby! Equally, this is much less expensive than services like TicketMaster which charge up to 15% of the ticket price!
