How to plan a festival (step-by-step guide)

Planning a festival involves organising your site layout, vendors, stages, and schedule — and making sure everything works together on the day.

Festival site maps: Static vs interactive maps

Festival site maps help attendees navigate an event — from finding stages to locating food and facilities. Most festivals still use static PDFs or images. While simple, these don’t reflect how people actually explore an event.
