Your whole festival site,
turned into one live game.

Between the sets, in the queues, across the far corners of the site: ReadySet layers a multiplayer game over your footprint so the gaps in the schedule become the part people talk about. Silverstone ran the same idea for 21 straight nights.

Why festivals play

The schedule has gaps. Fill them with a game.

Most of a festival day isn't spent watching the headliner. ReadySet gives you something to hand people for the hours in between, and a reason to explore the parts of the site they'd otherwise never reach.

Dead time becomes play

The 40 minutes between sets stops being a queue and starts being a mission. No extra staff, no extra stage.

Discovery across the whole site

Small stages, art installations, food traders and sponsor tents all become checkpoints worth walking to.

Multi-day progression

Scores carry from Friday to Sunday, so day tickets and weekend campers both have a reason to keep playing.

Sponsor moments that earn attention

Branded missions and prize drops that people opt into, instead of a banner they walk past.

Crowd flow you can nudge

Point missions at the quieter zones when the main stage bottlenecks. Change it live, mid-afternoon.

A weekend of content

Thousands of photo and video submissions from the crowd, ready for your channels while the festival is still running.

HOW A FESTIVAL PLAYS

One code at the gate. Three days of game.

Printed on the wristband card, on the screens, in the app: attendees join in seconds and the site lights up on their phone.

  1. 01
    Welcome screen with event join code entry

    Join at the gate

    The festival code goes on wristband cards, screens, and the schedule. Attendees enter it and they're in, no account needed.

  2. 02
    Team join screen with QR code and teammates

    Play solo or with your crew

    Group up with the people you came with, or enter the open ladder alone and climb it between sets.

  3. 03
    In-game player map with checkpoints

    The site lights up

    Stages, art, traders, camping, and hidden corners appear as checkpoints on a live map of the grounds.

  4. 04
    Photo challenge prompt

    Run missions between sets

    Photo, video, trivia and head-to-head challenges built around where they're standing and what's happening on stage.

  5. 05
    Live event leaderboard

    Daily and weekend leaderboards

    A winner announced each night, a weekend table that keeps running, and prize moments you drop when the crowd needs a lift.

Easy for the festival team

You program the stages. We program the site.

Content is built zone by zone with your site plan, scheduled around your running order, and steered live from a dashboard during peak hours.

  • Zone-by-zone content

    Missions mapped to your actual site plan: stages, camping, traders, art, sponsor activations, back gates.

  • Timed drops around the running order

    Bonus missions unlock between sets, at doors, and in the hour before the headliner walks on.

  • Live control through peak

    Extend a window, retire a checkpoint if a zone closes, and push a prize moment from one screen.

  • Built for festival signal

    Lightweight by design, tolerant of patchy coverage, and playable on the phones the crowd already brought.

Festival-scale proof

Silverstone ran a branded game for 21 nights straight.

Lap of Lights turned the circuit into a drive-through treasure hunt across a full run of ticketed nights. Tens of thousands of visitors played it on the ReadySet app, with no standalone build and no app-store cycle in the way.

  • Built for a long run, not one night

    21 consecutive nights of gameplay with fresh content pacing, so repeat visitors and season-pass holders found something new.

  • Fully themed to the venue

    Look, language, and missions written for the circuit itself, so the game read as Silverstone's, not as a generic hunt with a logo dropped on it.

  • Held up at crowd scale

    Tens of thousands of visitors, mapped checkpoints across the grounds, delivered inside the ReadySet app instead of a commissioned festival app.
