Festival weekendStop wrestling with
festival logistics.
Running a festival or fair should not mean drowning in applications, permits and payment chasing. If any of these sound familiar, this festival software was built for you.
Vendor application overload
Hundreds of vendor applications pouring in via email, with no easy way to track, compare, or organize them.
Online vendor applicationsMulti-day scheduling nightmares
Coordinating vendors across multiple days with different time slots, zones, and setup requirements.
Multi-day schedulingBooth layout chaos
Managing different zones, booth sizes, and vendor placements across a large venue with constant changes.

Tracking booth fees, permit deposits, and vendor payments across hundreds of participants is a full-time job.

Food vendors need health permits, insurance certificates expire, and keeping track of who is compliant is exhausting.

Vendor applications
Online applications replace manual data entry and sorting. Vendors type it once, you approve with a click.
Payments and billing
Booth fees, permit deposits and balances are invoiced and collected online, with reminders sent for you.
Vendor communication
Automated emails handle confirmations, setup times, updates and reminders from your own domain.
Logistics
Visual zones and multi-day scheduling handle the complexity, and the printed venue map is ready when you need it.
Everything a festival runs on,
already connected.
The vendor you approve is the same vendor placed in a zone on the venue map, invoiced for their booth and counted in your reporting.
Vendor management

How quickly can I set up Zinifly for my festival?
Most festivals and fairs are up and running within an hour. Setup involves creating your account, adding your event details, building your venue layout, and customizing your vendor application form. If you have existing vendor data, our team can help import it for free.
Can I manage multiple zones within my festival?
Absolutely! Our zone-based venue builder lets you create separate areas for food vendors, craft booths, entertainment stages, and more. Each zone can have its own booth types, pricing, and vendor requirements.
How does multi-day scheduling work?
You can set up your event across multiple days with different time slots, vendor assignments, and booth configurations for each day. Vendors can sign up for specific days, and you can track attendance across the entire event.
Can I track food vendor permits and insurance?
Yes! Vendors upload required documents (health permits, insurance certificates, business licenses) during the application process. You can set expiration dates and get alerts when documents need renewal. This makes compliance tracking effortless.
Is there a contract or can I cancel anytime?
No long-term contracts! You can cancel anytime. We believe in earning your business every month. Most event organizers stay because the value is clear, but you're never locked in.
Can I use my own branding and domain?
Yes! You can customize colors, logos, and use your own custom domain (like www.yourfestival.com). Your vendors see your brand on every application and communication. It looks completely professional.
