Run festivals with live maps, self-serve vendor sales, a branded mobile app, and artist portals that keep organizers, vendors, and attendees aligned.
Trusted by associations, expos and show organizers since 2011
Festival management software maps an outdoor site and sells vendor and sponsor space across it. Map D publishes a festival map covering stages, food, and vendor rows, sells booths online, gives vendors and artists a self-service portal, and gives fans a branded app with wayfinding.
Build rich, clickable maps for stages, artisan rows, food courts, and sponsor zones, then publish updates instantly so attendees can navigate on desktop or phone.
Let vendors and artists choose spaces on the map, complete checkout, and purchase add-ons like power, extra badges, or premium listings without manual back-and-forth.
Launch an iOS and Android app with your festival branding, schedules, lineups, pinned food and art locations, and targeted push alerts for real-time updates.
Give exhibitors and artists one login to upload assets, manage staff, update products, and track status so your team spends less time chasing paperwork.
Booths, sponsorships and add-ons are sold from the same live floor plan your attendees use, so every sale is reflected everywhere at once.
Exhibitors choose a booth on the live map, check out online and receive an invoice. Booths show open, reserved or sold the moment they change.
Sponsor profiles and sponsor lists on every plan, with sponsorship prices that dynamic pricing can lift as demand grows.
Exhibitors add electricity, Wi-Fi and other add-ons to their order, so upgrades are sold with the booth instead of chased afterwards.
Prices move with demand inside the limits you set. Map D is paid only from the extra revenue it creates; what you would have sold at flat prices stays yours.
Customer stories
See how event teams use MapD to run smoother events.
MapD is the best option for our expos. Our clients love the registration process! Data organization and exports are simple and easy. Fast reliable customer support feels like family. The wide variety of tools available for us allow us to grow and still feel well accommodated.
Kyle MichaudPresident @ Experience ExpositionsMapD is indeed a welcome and needed change for the way we sell booths and handle our awesome exhibitors. With being in our 20th year, we needed a system that would take the guesswork out of exhibitor payments, accounting, floor plan assignments and more! MapD has helped us sell more booths in a shorter time frame and we will most definitely continue to use them!
Ta'ron JoynerExhibitor Acquisitions Manager @ Taliah WaajidMapD is one of the most user friendly systems I have found for floor plan software. The customer service received after signing up goes unmatched by any other systems I have used. MapD has truly made my job easier as an Exhibit Manager and helps to promote and sell booth space with the interactive floor plan I can deliver to my vendors.
Casey HinerMeeting Architect @ KinsleyThe support of our vendors and partners allows us to put these events together, so again, thank you. I hope you have enjoyed this year's Virtual A-Day! The platform is amazing and so easy to use. :)
Alyssa MeekEvents manager @ DFWAEI am really excited about this. The staff met with me this morning and we all LOVE the platform. People are already filling out their booths.
Lisa VereggeDirector, International Trade and Development @ Maine Insurance Agents AssociationMap D is an amazing platform and easy to use! We worked with Map D for our virtual annual conference last year and it worked like a charm. When we held our annual conference in-person for the first time in two years, our first choice for our conference app was Map D!
Rori ShawExecutive Director @ Texas Society of CPAsI just came back from show site. This week I had my largest show ever. I had 247 exhibitors and I had 247 happy exhibitors. And a lot of that is a result of they were able to get their badges, update their profile, reach out to me anytime they want to.
Yalonde TannerShow Manager @ Georgia Municipal AssociationExporting exhibitors is really helpful for me. Fern needs a list of all our exhibitors with their booth number and what size it's going to be. Just exporting that list and getting it to whoever I'm working with at Fern is so incredibly helpful.
Laura WebbEvent Coordinator @ Multi Family NorthwestI'm probably your only customer who uses it to sell campsites, but it works really well. I just give them a drawing and they put it all together for me. I don't have to do it - it saves me many hours.
Tracie EngiHigh Lifter ProductsEvery plan is a flat rate per event — not per booth.
Upload the floor plan you already have and place your booths on it yourself, in Map D’s editor. Free to build, no contract, and nothing to install.

Yes, when your show includes onsite check-in. Gate staff scan each badge's Scan Code with the Map D scanner app, and the app can print badges at the gate too.
No. Gateway fees go to your merchant processor; Map D does not add its own processing fee.
Yes—organizers often add a line item to recover platform costs.
The published map updates live, so a moved stage or a re-routed vendor row is reflected for vendors and attendees without reprinting anything.
