Festivals Can Easily Create a Mobile App that Geolocates Attendees

Greencopper, a company that has built apps for Pitchfork Music Festival and Sasquatch!, has released a content management product for festivals. Greencopper’s new service is called Golive.

Festival organizers can use Golive to create mobile apps, event calendars, and maps. Festivals can also send out push notifications through the app they create.

For $500 a year, festivals can create a web widget with the lineup, schedule, and artist profiles. For $2,500 a year festivals can also build iPhone and Android apps. $4,000 will also get you an iPad app and three iBeacons that geolocate festivalgoers through the app.<!–/*
