Tickets and QR entry for multi-day festivals

A three-day jazz festival at Sahil Park, a culture festival in Gabala, food days in Zaqatala — Tad1 supports a multi-day schedule, multiple ticket categories and parallel QR scanner stations across different entrances. All connected to a single central database, synced in real time.

Festival production has its own rules

A festival is neither a concert nor a conference. The audience comes for a day, leaves, and returns the next morning. Several entrances run in parallel with their own teams. When tickets sell out, there are still people who want to attend. Standard ticketing systems struggle with this.

Several gates, several teams

Three gates running in parallel, each with its own scanner. How does one team know what another has seen? If the same QR is shown at two places at the same time, who stops it?

Multi-day ticket — separate check per day

Bought a three-day full pass. Shows the same QR every day, but the system needs to know they came yesterday, can come today, and tomorrow too. Foreign logic for most ticketing systems.

The event is sold out — but people still want in

Sales closed, yet there are still hopefuls. You need to collect their emails and notify them automatically if anyone cancels.

The festival page must be in your brand

Each festival has its own visual identity. A standard ticketing page doesn't help create the impression you want to leave.

How Tad1 works on the festival ground

Multi-day schedule, multiple scanner stations, waitlist and branding — all in one panel.

01

Build the multi-day event

The "Add day" button frames the festival as 26–28 May. For each day a separate ticket type: one-day (40 AZN), two-day (70 AZN), three-day full pass (95 AZN). VIP gets its own category at 250 AZN. Create a promo code: EARLY-25 for the first 200 tickets at a 25% discount.

02

Set up festival branding in Page Designer

Pick a hero style (Full / Banner / Minimal), set primary and accent colours to match your brand, upload the cover image and gallery. Add a YouTube or Vimeo promo video. Write a custom CTA: "Get your festival pass!" Customise header and footer text where needed.

03

Sales schedule and embed

Set the sales window: sales open 1 March at 09:00 and run until the festival starts. Take the event embed code (iframe or JavaScript snippet) and place it on a partner site. Under Tracking pixels enter your GA4 and Facebook Pixel IDs to track the conversion funnel.

04

Multiple scanner stations on parallel gates

Add several team members with the Scanner role; each opens the scanner in the browser on their phone. All scanners connect to the same central database — if a ticket is scanned at one gate, the others immediately get an "already used" signal. On a multi-day ticket each day is checked separately, but during the day the holder can step out for a break and return (re-entry tracking).

05

Waitlist for a sold-out festival

If festival tickets sell out, visitors see a "join waitlist" button. They drop their email and wait. If someone cancels or you open a new batch, "Notify waitlist" pings every waiting visitor in one click.

06

Real-time analytics

Numbers refresh on the dashboard hourly: how many tickets sold, how many people have arrived, which ticket type leads. You see total revenue. After the event, the full report can be exported to CSV or PDF.

Tailored solutions for different festival types

Music festivals

One day or three — the system works the same way. Set each artist's time slot in the schedule, upload the daily plan as a separate PDF. If you assign a Telegram bot to the event, the bot reminds the audience an hour before showtime.

Multi-gate events

The festival ground has several entrances. Place a team member with the Scanner role at each — they only scan QR codes, with no access to customer data or reports. Whichever gate the guest uses, the system records it in the central database.

Per-day tracking for multi-day events

On a three-day festival the system records which day each guest attended. The team sees daily check-in stats — invaluable for planning next year's strategy.

Cancelling the event (e.g. bad weather)

One click on "Cancel event" — the system automatically notifies every ticket holder, card refunds take 5–14 business days. No need to call anyone or answer questions one by one.

Common questions from festival organisers

Can I run several scanners simultaneously on different gates?

Yes. Add as many users with the Scanner role as you need; each connects from their device to the same central database. If a ticket is scanned at one gate, the others immediately get an "already used" signal.

On a three-day festival, can the same QR be scanned each day?

Yes. A multi-day ticket holds separate check-in status for each day. Came on day one, missed day two, returned on day three — all tracked. With a one-day ticket you can only enter on the assigned day.

The event is sold out but people still want in. How can I notify them?

Tad1 has a Waitlist system. When tickets run out, the visitor sees a "join waitlist" button and leaves their email. From your side, "Notify waitlist" sends a notification to every waiting person in one click — seats are open, time to buy.

Can the festival page design be customised to our brand?

Yes. In Page Designer you change primary, background, accent colours, hero style, layout and border radius. Customise header and footer text. Add a cover image, gallery (up to 10 photos) and a promo video from YouTube/Vimeo.

What if bad weather forces a cancellation?

One click on "Cancel event" sends an automatic notification to every ticket buyer. Card refunds take 5–14 business days (bank-dependent). Thanks to the automated flow you don't need to reply to each customer individually.

Do I need to install a special app for the scanner?

No. The Tad1 scanner opens directly in a phone browser — nothing to download from the App Store or Google Play. The team member opens the link, allows camera access and starts scanning QR codes. Internet is required during scanning — for outdoor festivals we recommend a backup 4G hotspot.
