Add the next edition of your festival

After your festival edition took place, you will be invited to add your next edition. Follow the next steps to do so.

In case you also need to update the details of your festival organisation, you can go to this chapter

Step 1: Login into your account via the upper menu

Step 2: Add a new edition

• If you select "Add new festival edition" all fields will be empty and you will need to complete them all.

• If you select "Copy a previous festival edition" all fields will be copied from one of the previous editions and you can just update the fields that are different for the next edition. This makes it easier to add your next edition.
• Select from which edition you would like to make the copy.

Step 3: Enter or update the details of the new festival edition

• We recommend introducing the name of your festival including a reference to the year in which the edition takes place.
  e.g., if your festival organisation name is “Music Festival Brussel” we recommend to use “Music Festival Brussel 2026” for the edition taking place in the year 2026.
• You can create multiple editions in the future for the same festival organisation.

• Enter here the link referring directly to pages of the edition you are creating.

• Enter here the main location where the festival is taking place. The City and Country are mandatory fields.
• It is possible to add additional festival locations by clicking on the green button “+ Add an additional Festival location”.
• In case your festival is taking place in different venues in the city centre, we discourage to add all the different venues as locations. In this case we recommend to add 1 location, indicating the City and the Country and leaving the Street, Street number empty.
• The City and Country will be shown under the name of the festival edition on top of your festival page.

• Both the start date and the end date of your festival edition should be in the future.
• On case your programme has multiple events spread over multiple months, we recommend giving the full period as the festival dates. The maximum period is 4 months.
  e.g. you organise a concert every Friday for 3 months. You give the date of the first concert as the start date and the date of the last concert as the end date.
  e.g. you organise 10 days of events in May (spring) and 10 days in October (autumn). You create 1 festival edition for the spring programme and later you add a second edition for the autumn programme.

• Here you can describe your festival. It is better to put here a short promotional text about the edition of your festival. Main festival topics, main festival artists, your values,... A detailed programme can be found on your own website.
• In case you copy the information from a document or a website, we recommend copying it as plain text and use the formatting tools on top of the field.

• The main picture is shown across the full width of the screen on top of your festival page. This image is important to create an attractive festival page.
• A minimum width of 2400 pixels is recommended. This ensures that most images display well and remain sharp.
• Although uploading a main picture is optional, we strongly recommend you to do so, to make your festival page attractive.
• You can a copyright to the picture. It will always be mentioned when the picture is shown.

• The small overview picture is shown when your festival is listed in search results or on the home page of the FestivalFinder.eu.
• The minimum dimension for this image is 660x495. The ideal dimension is 1320x990.
• When the small overview picture is not uploaded, the main festival picture is automatically reduced in size and shown instead.
• You can a copyright to the picture. It will always be mentioned when the picture is shown.

• Optionally, you can embed a video into your festival page on FestivalFinder.eu.
• We discourage to put long videos that can also be found on your own website. We recommend putting a trailer or promotional video for your festival edition.
• The system accept only a Youtube or a Vimeo link of a video. A link to a YouTube Channel isn't accepted.

Step 4: indicate the parameters for the “Search filters”

Except for the Art disciplines mainly presented in your programme, all the other search parameters are optional. However, to be found by the visitors on FestivalFinder.eu and to well inform them, we recommend to indicate the parameters that apply to your festival.
