FestMates: Festival Companion

About FestMates: Festival Companion

FestMates is a festival companion built for people who actually go to festivals. Browse the lineup, build a personal day plan, set reminders, find your tent on the map, and share everything with the friends you came with. Works offline once you've loaded a festival.

LINEUP & TIMETABLE
See the full lineup with stage and time, grouped by day. Switch between by-time and by-stage views. Day headers stay visible as you scroll, and the nav bar shows the day you're on. Times render in your device timezone with a hint when the festival is in a different one, so a Berlin user planning a UK festival sees both at a glance.

YOUR DAY PLAN
Tap the star on any set to add it to your day. Open My Plan to see only the events you saved, grouped by festival day. Overlapping sets get a badge so you can pick which one to catch and which to leave halfway. A "Next up" card surfaces the soonest set you saved while you're on site.

REMINDERS
Set a per-event reminder bell on any set in your plan. Pick your lead time once (5, 10, 15, 30, 45, or 60 minutes before) and every reminder follows it. Change the lead time later and every active reminder reschedules. Reminders work even when you have no signal at the festival site.

INTERACTIVE MAP
A real interactive map with custom stage pins and your live location. Stage pins pulse and show what's currently playing. When the live act is on your day plan, the pin switches to a stronger highlight so you don't miss it. Tap any pin for a card with that stage's schedule, now playing, and up next.

DROP YOUR OWN PINS
Drop a pin where your tent is. Drop pins for the meeting point, the food truck you liked, the spot where you parked. Pick an icon. Share one pin or several at once via a link. Friends tap the link, the pins land on their map. No account required.

DISCOVER FESTIVALS
A world map of every festival in the app. Pins cluster when festivals share a venue. Tap a pin to see banner, dates, stage count, and a preview of the festival map. Filter by upcoming, past, or the ones you marked as going.

SHARE YOUR DAY PLAN
Send your day plan with a single share link. Your friend opens it, sees the same lineup with your picks highlighted, and merges it into their own plan in one tap. No account on either side. The whole plan rides in the link.

NOTES
Jot down a note on any event: a song you just heard, who you came with, where to meet up after. Notes stay with the event and are also collected on a dedicated Notes screen, grouped by festival, so it doubles as a journal of your festival summer.

OFFLINE-READY
When you say you're going to a festival, the app quietly downloads the lineup, banners, FAQ, and event artwork in the background. After that, browsing, opening events, and using the map all work without a connection. Festival sites have terrible reception. The app plans for that.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
The current version has no account, no sign-up, and no ads. Saved festivals, day plans, pins, and notes are stored on your phone. We collect anonymous error and usage data to improve reliability, with no advertising identifier.

LANGUAGES
English, German, Spanish.
