Interface Design
Festie is a mobile application for finding music events and friends to go with.
About
Problem
Many people want to attend festivals, raves, or concerts and get discouraged because they don't know how to start looking for events, tickets, or hotels, they don't have a friend group to go with, they are unfamiliar and want to learn more about the experience.
Solution
We created an app to directly solve these issues:
-
All in one app, unlike competitors
-
Provides an easy way to connect with people attending events
-
Organize links to learn more about the location, tickets, hotels, and artists.
-
Concentrates to a specific region / rave festival / concert
-
Match and chat with ticket holders to specific events
-
Outfit inspiration
-
Create festival friendships ("festies").
