For events and entertainment
Software for events and entertainment businesses
You sell a brilliant night, then spend months chasing deposits, run sheets and suppliers to make sure it happens.
How these businesses run
An enquiry is a date, a place and a feeling, and two or three other suppliers got the same message. Whoever replies properly first usually wins it.
Then come months of detail: times, set lists, access, clients changing their minds, suppliers to confirm.
On the day nothing can be fixed after the fact, so nothing should depend on one person's phone.
Where your week goes
- Answering every enquiry with “what date, and where?”
- Ringing round to check availability, and the odd double booking.
- Bookings held on a deposit nobody's paid.
- Three versions of the run sheet, all different.
- A ticket platform taking a cut and keeping your customers.

Tell us which one costs you the most time. We'll tell you what we'd build, roughly what it would cost and how long it would take.
What we can build for this
What we'd build for a business like yours. The work already delivered is further down.
- An enquiry form that asks what a planner would ask
- Availability and booking, with the deposit taken there and then
- Ticketing on your own site, with payouts, transfers and wallet passes
- Door scanning someone else can run on the night
- Act and supplier profiles with video, edited by your own team
- Automatic client updates through the quiet months
- Run sheets in one place, readable on a phone at the venue
- Review requests sent while the night's still fresh
How a project would work
The website and the back office get built as one thing. Winning the enquiry and then dumping it in a spreadsheet just moves the problem.
You get the keys. Acts, venues and packages change, so you can edit it all yourself.

Work we have delivered in this market
See it working
A short film of one of our own demonstrations, recorded from the running software. Every company in it is invented, and the link opens the real thing.
Juniper Events · Weddings and events entertainment
An extra hour asked for, priced, accepted, and only then added to the plan, with the brief reissued and acknowledged before the day counts as handed over.
Things we have already built
Live in software we have delivered, and relevant to this kind of business. Part of the 123 things we have built.
Multi-step booking with email and planner sync
Every enquiry is captured, confirmed by email, and dropped straight into the booking system, so no lead slips through the cracks.
Artist profile pages with video and social media
Prospective clients explore each performer in detail on the site, see real video and real reviews, and enquire with confidence. Instead of asking for a showreel by email.
Sell tickets and get paid, on any plan
Your event pays for itself instead of costing you, so putting people together stops being a favour and starts being a business line.
Scan tickets on the door, and hand the scanner to someone else
Nobody queues at your door, and you are not stuck on it. You are inside meeting the people you invited.
The ticket lives in Apple or Google Wallet
More of the people who said yes actually turn up, because the ticket is already in their phone.
Pass your ticket to someone else
A cancellation becomes a different guest instead of an empty chair.
See what the event actually did
You find out which events are worth repeating, so the second one is better than the first instead of another guess.
The event lands in the calendar you actually check
You turn up, because the thing you committed to is in the calendar you actually run your week from.
A page for every area you actually cover
You show up for the places you actually work, and the visitor lands on a page about their town rather than a list of thirty.
Automated review and testimonial collection
Social proof builds steadily from happy clients without the owner personally asking each one.
Self-serve content studio
The owner keeps the site current on their own schedule, with no developer needed for everyday changes.
Entertainment agencies and wedding entertainers
The narrower page, for agencies and acts booking DJs, hosts and live performers. Entertainment agencies and wedding entertainers.
What that usually means building
Tell us how your business actually runs
We build around how you already work, not the other way round. Tell us the part that eats most of your time and we'll tell you what we'd build and roughly what it would cost.
