The world's No. 1 software for film festivals

Serving festivals since 2009

The world's most widely used festival software, Eventival has helped hundreds of festivals through over 1,100 editions of film and other festivals in Europe, the Americas, Asia, Africa and Australia. The software helps festivals streamline and simplify work with data, attendee registration, hospitality management, and film reviewing, selection, scheduling and publication, but also serves as a CRM and project management tool. Eventival makes running festivals less stressful and attending them more pleasant. As one of our clients put it, "Eventival is the institutional memory of our organisation".

Festival software: no longer a luxury

People still sometimes wonder: is running a festival an actual job? Well, we know otherwise. Gathering, reviewing and selecting films, processing accreditations, inviting guests, arranging travel and hotels, setting up events, creating schedules and pushing them to websites and other platforms is like running through a labyrinth on top of a mountain of data, and keeping it all in spreadsheets is a nightmare involving hundreds of hours of tedious work prone to inevitable errors. Getting rid of these spreadsheets, removing these errors, making it all more easy, more precise and more fun, that's what software systems for festivals do - and Eventival does it better than anyone.

Join the 100+ festivals already with us!

13 years ago, one of our co-founders nailed it: "We put the technology where it belongs: behind you!" If you're still stuck in the spreadsheet madness, liberate yourselves. If you're using a multitude of systems that have a hard time talking to one another, put them all it one. If you're not happy with your current system, change it. And if you thinking of building your own costly and soon unscalable platform, think twice and reconsider. Because whatever your problem, Eventival is most likely the solution - and it's only one email away.

Eventival Mobile App

Enhance the festival experience by helping guests and audience navigate the festival easily. Anyone with the app can browse the list of films, screenings schedule, create their own schedule and stay informed about any festival news. Logged in guests can also see their guest info, itineraries, Who is Here and more.

Eventival Submission Platform

Two years ago, we began developing our own film submission platform, ESP. For the Eventival-powered festivals, this would mean merely an additional way of getting films, while the filmmakers submitting to them would not need to fill in submission forms on the different Visitor Pages multiple times. The smaller festivals, however, that can't afford or don't need the Eventival Back Office for their management, would now be able to use Eventival services and get discovered by thousands of filmmakers. The pandemic brought us so many new festival clients that we postponed the launch of ESP, but we hope that soon it will become available to everyone.

Eventival Upgraded

After a year of work, we released the new Eventival in June 2021. It's got a new user interface, a lot easier to navigate than the previous versions, is prettier, easier to use, faster to learn, responsive and full of improved and new features. While the previous versions of Eventival required very experienced users, the new Eventival aims at those who don't really "work with it" but only need it to find the information their colleagues have entered and processed - festival programmers, management, PR teams, volunteers, etc.
