The world's No. 1 software for film festivals

Supporting festivals since 2009

For over 15 years, Eventival has been providing film festivals and events all over the world with the most sophisticated, flexible and reliable data management and logistical platform on the market. As a database, Eventival is your organisation's institutional memory and eventually an archive of all the work you've done. As an event planning and logistical solution, it's an toolbox full of magic tricks that make organising festivals easier and attending them more fun.

Festival database: need, not a luxury

Film festival: on the surface, a dream job full of watching movies, meeting stars and travelling the world. But underneath, it's a serious matter: deadlines, decisions, conflicts, changes, choices. And where spreadsheets begin to fail you, Eventival saves you, gradually ridding you of the most tedious and repetitive error-prone tasks and freeing your hands for the creative work - the reason you work at a festival in the first place.

100+ clients in 40+ countries

When you can't tell one spreadsheet from another, you start looking around for options. You can get something free or cheap - but you'll probably regret. You can build your own system - but consider that systems age, need maintenance, and that's costly. Or you can do what many have done before you, and reach out to us: because no matter what your problem, we've probably dealt with it before, and solved it. So why not try?

Eventival Account

In order to log into any Eventival application as well as some other film industry applications and services, a person has to create their account with Eventival - their Eventival Account. With this single sign solution, it is no longer necessary to create multiple username/password combinations for different festivals, and is therefore a great time saver.

Festival Platform

Eventival was originally supposed to be a simple application helping smaller festivals deal with basic logistical hassles, existing alongside a system already serving very large festivals. However, once even the large festivals began to migrate to Eventival, we accepted the challenge and eventually created the most feature-rich festival tool in the market. Today, Eventival is the platform most major festivals use: as their database, event logistics toolbox, and the interface connecting thousands of staff members with over half a million filmmakers, guests and industry professionals.

Visitor Page

Visitor Page is a customisable space where Eventival clients handle communication with their filmmakers and guests, film industry, volunteers, reviewers and pass holders. Rather than replying to thousands of individual emails, festivals set up everything they need to know or tell there, and then either gather or spread the information through it. Originally serving only to gather film submissions and sell accreditations, 75% of all festival communication goes through the Visitor Pages these days, saving festival staff a lot of precious time.
