Our hearts are heavy with the reality that this pandemic is affecting every member of our community. The following is an update on what FestivalNet.com is doing at this time.
Our hardworking staff is doing its very best, every day, to keep events updated, in addition to contacting promoters to get the very latest information and plans for the future. It is an arduous task with over 26,000 events in our database and the information on COVID-19 changing nearly daily.
With the sincere hope of offering some respite, we are initiating several new actions:
- All current and new Pro members will receive an automatic, and free, two month extension of their membership. There is no action required on your part for this.
-We are offering a renewal and new member discount at this time & your membership will run for 14 months rather than 12.
- We are finishing up our form for livestream & virtual vendor events.
- We are offering discounted Featured Events with a promise: if your future event is forced to reschedule any time this year, we will extend your Feature at no additional cost to you. (Events: Update your event listing here.)
We've been here with you since 1996 and plan to continue being of service long after COVID has run its course. In the meantime, please let us know if there's anything more we can do for you during these most difficult of times.
We encourage you to take advantage of federal relief options open to artists, entrepreneurs and small businesses working in the creative economy. The CARES (Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security) Act is now law and also offers direct support for both non-profit cultural organizations and state and local arts and humanities agencies.
