The Big Yellow Tambourine Man Band - Bob Dylan & Joni Mitchell Tribute

Get on the Radar of Visitors Still Deciding Where to Go Tonight

Mapzest surfaces your venue to people planning their evening right now

Live music venues, bars and nightclubs live and die by tonight's footfall - and most of it is decided by visitors who haven't picked a venue yet. Mapzest positions you on the same interactive map they're already scrolling through, tagged by the kind of night you actually run, so someone after a live band, an open mic or a late DJ set finds your doors instead of whichever venue happened to have a flyer out.

Turn Tonight's Line-Up Into Tonight's Booking

Gigs, open mics, DJ sets and club nights, listed the moment they're confirmed

A poster in the window only reaches people who already walked past - Mapzest puts your line-up in front of every visitor exploring the destination. A live band night pulls in an evening crowd, an open mic fills a quiet midweek slot and builds a loyal local following, a DJ set or club night drives late-night footfall and bar spend, and an album launch or one-off show creates the buzz that sells out a night. Every listing lands straight in the destination's 'What's On' schedule as soon as you publish it.

Live "What's on" events schedule in the Mapzest app

Fill the Room With Offers Visitors Carry in Their Pocket

Entry deals, guestlist spots and drink bundles that land before they've chosen a venue

Offers you create land directly in the visitor's Mapzest Wallet while they're still deciding where to spend the evening. Free entry before 10pm drives early footfall on a quiet start, a student night discount fills an otherwise dead weeknight, a guestlist offer locks in reservations ahead of the night, and a drinks-plus-entry bundle lifts spend per head at the bar. It's a straight line from a visitor spotting an offer to walking through your door.

Your Instagram, Reaching Tonight's Crowd

Connect your Instagram and every line-up post, sound-check clip or crowd shot reaches app users nearby right now, not just the followers who already know your nights.

Update the Line-Up the Moment It Changes

A support act drops out, a show sells out, a new night gets added last minute - update your listing yourself in seconds instead of leaving stale info live somewhere else.

Host Touring Acts and Guest DJs

Invite touring bands, DJs and comedians to create and manage their own listing for a night at your venue, or partner with a promoter on a one-off show or takeover.

Part of the Destination's Nightlife Map

Sit alongside every bar, restaurant and late-night spot in the area on one living guide, so visitors planning a night out discover you next to where they're already eating and drinking.
