Why your Event Space Needs a Live Music Festival

Are you making the most of your event space? Whether it’s a small or a large open space outside your hotel, event spaces are capable of generating significant revenue for your brand. If you never thought of capitalizing on your event venue, it’s time you start now. According to studies, the live music industry’s revenue will increase to $31 billion in the next 4 years. If you haven’t thought about it yet, you’re losing out on a big opportunity. Are you still in doubt? Here’s why a live music concert or a festival is the best way to monetize any hospitality and entertainment enterprise.

Crowd Puller Live music festivals draw large crowds easily. Whether it’s a concert or local band performing, give your event space on rent or simply host a festival. Read our blog on “10 steps to host a successful concert” for more details. While more crowd can mean chaos, make sure you tie up with an ideal event ticketing company so the validations are quick. At Yapsody, we offer mobile apps to our presenters, so they can scan the attendees and give them a seamless experience with no more long queues.

High Revenue More crowd is equal to higher revenue. Whether you’re hosting the live festival at your hotel or a casino, music festivals help you generate high revenue. Do you want to earn extra cash? Read our blog on “How to make your hotel space a money minting machine”. Get the ticket sales proceeds transferred directly to your bank account with our payment gateway systems. Not just that, if you want to track your earnings, YapStats – our mobile app will give you a clear and detailed report of your sales conversions.

Promote What you’re Good At Live music festivals can make your event space a big hit. When attendees arrive at your venue, they may want to grab a quick bite before the show so they don’t miss any part of the performance. As they relish the appetizing food, you’re promoting your food indirectly and earning some extra moolah. Similarly, if the concert is at a casino, you can promote your casino and earn extra cash while they play a few games and entertain themselves. To ensure your music event and your venue becomes popular, you’ve got to promote your event well in advance. If it’s a new place, ensure you post pictures of your venue on social media, so people know what to expect at the venue. Alternatively, we can make your event venue popular by promoting it on our website, social media profiles and our blogs.

Recognition through Social Media All artists have their own fan base. Weeks before the event when the artists promote their events on social media and other platforms, your event space gets recognition. It can become a popular hangout space for your attendees, even when you’re not hosting an event. One successful event will lead to another and you can get contracts for all future concerts/music festivals.

Golden Opportunity to Show you Care What if your artist is arriving late at the venue? Use this as an opportunity to offer them your other services. For example, if the concert is happening at a hotel, you can take the interested attendees for a hotel tour or offer them your buffet service at a discounted price. If it’s a casino, your attendees can check out your casino, play some quick games before the artist arrives. Offer great customer service and set yourself apart. Yapsody is appreciated for 3 things – features, pricing and customer service. Our 24/7 customer support offers unexceptional service or all queries, be it yours or your attendees’.

Attendees like unconventional event spaces that offer them a unique experience. If you think you’ve got one, go on and create your event with Yapsody. You can check out our really cool offers and save on your ticketing fees. Use our promo code HOLIDAY25 to get a 25% off on your event ticketing fee. Sign up NOW!

10 Food & Drink Festival Ideas to Get Inspired By

Food and drink lovers find a way out to any corner of the world if you give them the taste and experience they are looking for. This unbeatable combination has always been a crowd puller, be it for events like Oktoberfest or a wine tasting festival. If you’ve been on the lookout for ideas to host your own food and drinks events, your search ends here! We have curated 10 food and drink festival ideas to get inspired by and give your attendees an elite experience.

Mexican Food & Drinks Festival The burritos, tortillas and tacos with a mild spice in it can get your attendees craving for more. Host a Mexican food and drinks festival to give your attendees’ taste buds a treat. You can tie up with your local brewery and let the beers flow. You can either host a single day event or two-day event depending on the response you receive while promoting your event. Host your festival like Sabor a Cabo and give your attendees a great time!

Seafood & Wine Festival Be it Shrimps or Oysters, people love seafood and will flock from any part of the state to enjoy the festival. Along with wine tasting, you’re sure to sell event tickets online free. Keep a variety of fish, so your attendees get to try multiple items at your event. Do you want to make your festival popular? Host a contest to open oysters at your event and watch the fun or keep it classy, your choice. You can get inspired by the Crabfest Dinner event happening in Nevada, Washington in October 2019 to make your seafood festival a great success.

Chef’s Palette

With a few renowned chefs, you can host a great food festival. That way, the chefs get to promote their food or restaurant and make your festival a big hit in the community. The chefs could make their signature dishes or go with a specific theme for the event. Combine it with cocktails and turn it into the best night with some music at your event.

A Mini Oktoberfest Hosting a local Oktoberfest will surely make you popular in no time. Since it’s a German folk fest, you can either choose to have German food like pretzels, pork knuckles or go with what your attendees love to eat. Beer festivals are incomplete without beer tents. You can have multiple tents serving different types of beer or maybe just one single tent with live music and liters of beer. To know more about how to host a local Oktoberfest, read our blog – “A Presenter’s Guide to Hosting a Local Oktoberfest“.

Mini Oktoberfest

Food Tasting Festival You don’t necessarily need to call Jamie Oliver to host this festival. This can be more of a local event, wherein you can invite the best of the chefs/home cooks to present their food and let your attendees taste the dishes to decide who’s the winner. Such events offer attendees a great experience and they get to try multiple dishes at your event.

Dessert & Drinks Festival Break the stereotypes. While people always try food and drinks, you can give your attendees a unique experience. Host a desserts and drinks festival with S’mores and fried twinkies along with chocolate cocktails. You can also offer a combination of desserts and drinks through liquor-infused chocolates.

Drinks and Desserts

Barbeque & Beer Fest If you’re missing the wild west and you want to incorporate the Texan theme, you can host a barbeque and beer fest. Set up multiple barbecue stations with different meats and sauces accompanied by fresh green salads. Yes, our mouths are watering as we write this. You can have burgers and sausages, along with the steaks so your attendees have multiple choices to try. Alternatively, you can set up multiple popular food trucks at your event. Offer your attendees bundled tickets that will include the cost of 1 meal and a pint.

Pro Diet Food and Drinks Festival As the name suggests, this one’s for the health-conscious(or the ones pretending to be) attendees. You can have grilled meats with olive oil accompanied by salads. Instead of beers, you can have one section of mocktails like Jasmine ginger iced green tea or grapefruit cinnamon soda. Your attendees will look forward to an event like this since it’s unique and offers health benefits along with taste.

China Town Host a Chinese food festival in your city. Whether it’s the Crab Rangoon or the General Tso’s Chicken, your attendees will love to try different cuisine. Incorporate soups and salads in your menu along with fried dumplings and egg rolls to drive the foodies to your event. Bring life to your event with live chuigushou and people serving dishes in traditional Chinese Qipao.

China Town

Strange Foods & Local Beer While you may find chicken and waffles, chitterlings and scrapple to be weird dishes, your attendees may want to try all of them. You can have strange foods from all around the world, so people coming to your event have a reason to be a part of it. Serve the drunken shrimps or the Escamole from Mexico with some local beer and get ready to be in the limelight for the weirdest dishes you’ve served your attendees.

How to Make your Conference Event Interesting in 10 Ways

When the response of your post-conference survey indicates a poor response, it’s time to rethink how to make your conference fun and engaging for your attendees. People attend conferences to acquire knowledge, meet new people and to share their professional experiences. While some conferences can turn out to be boring, you can be a game-changer and make your conference fun in 10 ways. Check them out.

Customize your Ticket Don’t let this be just another conference that your attendees have to attend. Here’s your opportunity to create excitement for your conference event. It may not be a direct ticket to fame, but your conference will add value to their success. Customize your tickets according to your theme using our ticket customization feature. Sign up with Yapsody and create your ticket to success.

Ice Breakers Most attendees feel awkward when they are in a room full of strangers. You can have a fun session soon after your introduction to break the ice. For example, you can share 3 sets of questionnaires asking questions like ‘Who among the participants have gone bungee jumping’, ‘knows 5 languages’ or ‘write 5 names of people who have tattoos’ Your attendees will have to check with everyone at the conference to understand whose names will go on that sheet. In say 10 minutes, they already know a few things about each other.

Make it Interactive If it’s just the speaker doing the talking, the conference can get boring after a while. Instead, make it a two-way communication, where you ask questions to the participants and let them share their experiences. Let’s say, it’s a medical conference you’re organizing and you’ve invited doctors to be a part of it. To make the conferenceinteresting, you can have a few doctors share funny experiences of patients that could lighten the mood of the audience.

Fun Emcee One person who can add great value to your conference is the Emcee. Since he/she spends the maximum time interacting with your attendees getting a fun and engaging emcee makes a lot of sense. Attendees generally tend to create a perception of the speaker in the first 15 minutes. If you have an emcee doing an average job, you’re bound to lose out on your attendees’ attention. A good emcee knows what is the objective of the conference and how to impart knowledge without getting the audience bored.

Storytelling People love stories. Depending on the type of conference you’re organizing, create a story to draw your attendees’ attention. For example, you want to introduce a new technology at the conference, you can explain the concept effectively through a story. Grab your attendees’ attention through a story that’s fun to hear. Be it in schools or companies, the storytelling method always works effectively to create interest and explain the concept at the same time.

Activities All work and no activity makes your conference dull and monotonous. Organize activities at certain intervals of the conference to help attendees move out of their comfort zone. Networking is yet another reason why people attend conferences and through activities like human spectrogram or crowd polling, they meet the purpose. Human spectrogram helps you understand your audience through questions you throw at them and they pick a side depending on who agrees and who doesn’t. Whereas, crowd polling is a fun way to compare opinions through mobile apps.

Creative Video Presentations Begin your conference with a creative video presentation. It should be inspiring enough to latch their minds to your conference. For example, if you’re planning a tech conference, say for women, you can motivate them with inspiring video presentations showing successful women, how they work their way from rags to riches. Such videos will get everyone in the theme of the conference and motivate them to learn from it.

World Cafe Organize a world cafe at your conference to ensure maximum participation of attendees. World cafe is a way of starting a conversation between large groups, allowing attendees to learn from each other’s experiences. All you have to do is allocate a topic per table and let the attendees discuss it for 15 minutes, post which they move to the next table and the process continues. It allows knowledge-sharing and is effective in educational conferences where people discuss how to improve the academic curriculum.

Use Props, Handouts and Pictures For a change, keep the powerpoint presentations away. Different people learn differently. While some attendees will love text content, some will grasp quicker through props or handouts. Depending on the type of conference you’re hosting, you could use pictures or props to convey your message.

Entertainment The lunch break and the great food you organized can divert your attendees’ attention from the conference. To help them get back into the conference, entertain them with light music, shake them up a bit till they are active. Once you’ve got their attention, begin the conference from where you left before the break.

Host a Quiz and Give Away Goodies Most conferences go for hours and attendees get tired sitting for long and listening to a speaker throughout the session. Make it interesting. Before you end the conference, host a quiz with questions about the conference. That way, you’ll gauge how many attendees have truly enjoyed the conference. You can either choose to give away goodies to the quiz winners or give away souvenirs to all depending on the volume of attendees and your budget.

Step & Repeat Wall Everyone loves taking pictures, be at a photo booth or in front of a step and repeat wall. Create a backdrop with a step and repeat logo of your company for your conference event. Maybe for a while, your attendees can feel like they’re at the Cannes International Film festival. That way, your attendees can have a great time taking selfies for your social media profiles and indirectly end up promoting your brand online.
