FestivalNet is not affiliated with any festival we list on our site.

A membership to our website saves you time in your event research!

If you need additional info on event schedules, buying tickets, music lineup, how to be a vendor, when the parade starts, parking arrangements, or if your dog or cat can come, please contact the festival directly. You can look up their website or social media if you are not interested in our membership services.

You can become a free member of FestivalNet.com and get full show details on any eight events of your choice. To do that, go here.

First of all, a Basic FestivalNet account is Free! You can access all events using our advanced search tools. While some event details are left out, it's a great starting point to learn where and when the shows are.

Our paid levels cover our team of researchers who, year round compile, update and expand our data, maintaining relevant and current info on thousands of events throughout North America. Nowhere else can you get the volume of information and extensive details we offer, along with organizational and productivity tools all in one place. Many of the details we provide are not even found on the event's web site! AND we offer world class customer service and tech support to all our customers from basic free accounts to the highest paid pro level, this all costs money.

Some people ask us: why pay for something I can get for free? Can't I just use google to get the info I need? You certainly could use other sources, including yourself, to track down festivals & discover some of the details you need, but you can not find all of what we offer and after a while you will soon see the value of our services! In business, time is money and FestivalNet is an investment in yourself and in your business. Save research hours, use our awesome 'one-click-connect' and our other excellent tools, and you will absolutely book your show calendar faster and better with FestivalNet than if you go at it alone.

Festival/Promoters FAQs

The ability to upload documents and applications is a Pro Member feature. For more information on Pro Membership, please go here. To become a Pro Member, go here.

To upload your application, go to "My Account" and look for the "My Applications" link across the gray toolbar. Click that, and then select "Upload Document". Add a title and description for your document. Keep in mind that when visitors go to download your application, they will be taken to a page with all of your uploaded documents listed, so make your title specific to that particular application (ie: if this is a vendor application for an event, list the name of the event in the title).

Next, choose your application file. This file needs to be available for upload on the computer or network you're attempting to upload from. We accept the following file formats: pdf, doc, docx, odt, txt. If your application is in a different format, please convert it before attempting to upload. There are many free document editors available to do so with. If you have previously uploaded documents or applications into your profile, and want to make multiple copies, click the "Choose From Uploaded Documents" documents, and select a file from there to use as your new uploaded document.

After your title and description are set, and your file is selected, click "Upload Document" to upload it. If you need to edit or remove documents after uploading them, go back under the My Applications tab, and select the appropriate action there.

Your applications are available to view & download from your profile and your event listings.

Seller questions - Also, view our Seller Tips page.

Thumbnails are the same size in all Seller's shops and throughout the FestivalNet Marketplace so your original image will be cropped to fit. We crop from the center point of the image. For best results, make sure the most important part of your item is centered in the image with equal space above, below, right & left. You will see your full original photo when viewing item listing.

Tags: image, marketplace, photo, product, products, sell, sellers, thumbnail

You may upload 5 images per item. File types supported are jpg, jpeg, gif, & png. Please do not upload small thumbnail sized images! They will appear blurry when they are resized to fit the available space.

The recommended image shape is square if you want to avoid your image being cropped or changed in an odd way, when shown with the item, keep your image somewhere between 360 to 800 pixels wide. Our suggested minimum width is 360 pixels. Keep in mind images wider than 800 pixels will be resized.

The limit for all photos included with an item's listing is 100 MiB (104.86 MB), and the maximum size of a single image file is 75 MiB (78.64 MB).
