Music Festivals
Your festival, on a website that fills the roster
You run auditions, faculty, housing, repertoire, and a season, usually with a staff you can count on one hand. Your website and application system should carry some of that weight instead of adding to it.
Sound familiar?
Applications live somewhere else
Applicants leave your site for a third-party portal or a Google Form. You pay per applicant, or you chase spreadsheets, and the experience says nothing about your program.
The site goes stale mid-season
Faculty changes, schedule updates, and program announcements wait on whoever knows how to edit the site. By August it is describing last year.
Prospective students bounce on mobile
Seventeen-year-olds evaluate your festival on their phones. A slow, dated site reads as a slow, dated program, whatever the truth is.
Nothing talks to anything
Inquiries in one inbox, applications in another tool, payments in a third. Reconciling who applied, who paid, and who enrolled eats staff weeks.
What we build for you
A festival website designed for you
Programs, faculty, schedules, and repertoire as first-class structure, in a design that matches the level of your teaching.
Application and audition funnels
Music-native forms with repertoire lists, audition video upload, recommendations, and integrated payments, on your own domain.
A CMS your team actually uses
Update faculty, dates, and programs yourself in minutes. The design stays intact no matter who edits.
Applicant and admit communications
Email sequences that keep applicants moving from inquiry to application to deposit.
Enrollment analytics
Where applicants come from, where they stall, and what your funnel actually converts, in numbers you can act on.

Questions that come up
Our applications open every fall. When should we start?
Count backwards from your open date: a full site plus application build wants a few months of lead time, an application funnel alone can move faster. Spring and summer are when most festivals make the switch.
We already have a designer. Do we need the full package?
No. Festivals with internal design capacity take the platform work alone, and the site plays to your designer instead of replacing them.
Can you match how our current application works?
We start by documenting your current fields, fees, deadlines, and review steps, then rebuild that exactly before improving anything. Your team approves the forms before applicants see them.
