SAN FRANCISCO, CA — (Marketwired) — 12/09/13 — Vendini, Inc. today announced a partnership with Birthplace of Country Music® (BCM), the parent organization of Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion. This partnership extends Vendini-s all-in-one Festival Solution to include Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology with Vendini-s ticketing, marketing and logistics solutions. RFID can be used with wristbands for guests, artists, staff and volunteers, to improve the festival experience and enhance festival revenue.
For the first time, festivals can look to one provider for their entire front and back office solution. From marketing, website, ticketing and order fulfillment, to credentialing, access control and contract management, Vendini is the only comprehensive solution for festivals.
“Festivals spend too much time managing multiple vendors and ensuring integrations work. By giving festivals one solution for all their access control needs, we let the festival focus on the festival itself,” said Mark Tacchi, CEO of Vendini. “We are thrilled to partner with Bristol Rhythm & Roots Reunion, in the Birthplace of Country Music®, to bring an all-in-one solution including RFID to market.”
“Working with Vendini will allow us to focus on improving our guest experience and growing our festival,” said Leah Ross, Executive Director of Birthplace of Country Music®.
With the addition of RFID, Vendini provides complete access control for guests, artists, staff, and volunteers. Entry lines and concession lines move faster, improving festivalgoer satisfaction, taking a load off of festival staff, and lowering costs. Access points can be easily configured based on guest, artist, staff, and volunteer needs. Ticket fraud is reduced and customer service improved with the convenience of wristband registration. Individual registration gives the festival access to powerful data for all festivalgoers, not just ticket purchasers alone. With wristband fulfillment by Vendini, ticket to wristband exchange is eliminated, further reducing lines and freeing up staff.
