Working with the best

At Grandad, we understand that festivals are all about creating memorable experiences for audiences, and we bring these experiences to life through our cutting-edge digital solutions. From building scalable websites and integrating ticketing systems to ensure smooth transactions, to designing powerful brands that make discovery easier, we specialise in streamlining complex processes to deliver the best outcomes.

Our work with leading festivals like Brighton Festival, Thames Festival, and Wandsworth Art Fringe proves that our solutions aren’t just functional - they’re transformative. We know how to blend innovation, performance, and creativity to build platforms that meet the unique needs of your event, while keeping audiences excited and engaged.

By embracing the latest in digital technology, we enable you to scale, optimise, and elevate your festival experience. With Grandad, you can ensure your festival reaches its full potential, online and off.

Understanding the Festival Landscape

At Grandad, we understand festivals inside and out – from the unique challenges of the festival landscape to the shifting needs of organisers, performers, and audiences across every stage of the festival lifecycle. Our websites are designed to flex and adapt throughout the year, with features, structures, and communication strategies that evolve as your event does. From pre-festival anticipation to live event engagement and ongoing post-festival connections, our solutions streamline UX for attendees, artists, and producers alike.

With component-based builds, reusable templates, and a modular framework, we deliver sites that are fully flexible, scalable, and ready to pivot with new opportunities. We also offer in-depth research before, during, and after your festival, helping uncover what works, what’s missing, and how to improve the audience and participant experience both online and off.

We are committed to forming long-term partnerships. Seeing your festival at all stages, year after year.
