Heads up about Festicket

Festicket was founded in 2012 by Zack Sabban and Jonathan Younes. It was founded with the intention to make booking festival experiences in Europe simple similar to booking a holiday. The platform lets you find and book festival tickets as well as a travel itinerary

Since it’s launch, the company works with over 1200 festivals and 4500 suppliers across 50 countries. It has served over 2.5 million customers across the world.

Aims to fuel expansion and growth

Festicket will use this capital to support its expansion into new markets, especially Asia and North America. It is also in plans to invest in the underlying tech platform as well as grow its community of festival fans all over the world. This way, the company can build an exclusive membership tier with additional benefits this year.

Teams up to Spotify

Recently, the UK-based startup integrated with Spotify. With this partnership, it becomes easy to discover music festivals based on the music that you prefer. This feature is called Festival Finder. It requires you to login to your Festicket using your Spotify login credentials. This way, the platform will extract information about your favourite artists and show 10 upcoming music festivals that might match your music preferences.
