Event Overview

Good Gumnuts Festival is an inclusive music festival, our aim is to create a safe & family friendly festival that caters to as many people as possible. Not only do we wish for great attendee experience but we also want to provide a platform for local acts to gain new fans and rub shoulders with national artists. 

Good Gumnuts aims to have a diverse range of programming, including music, workshops, and live art, support dogs, magic and much more.

Attendees can enjoy a broad range of activities designed to engage, entertain, and educate. The festival showcases local and national artists through live music performances, comedy acts, and interactive art exhibitions. 

The personal connections, the feeling of a smaller, well curated festival with a big heart, and the thoughtful touches that ensure a memorable experience make Good Gumnuts truly special.

POS Systems/Bar & Merch: PopUp WiFi was crucial for our bar and merchandise areas, ensuring seamless transactions and real time syncing of sales data. This made the purchasing process fast and efficient for attendees and vendors alike.

Backstage artists and Office Use: Backstage, PopUp WiFi supported artists and staff, providing reliable internet for performance preparations, communication, and office tasks. 

Media Team Uploads: The media team used PopUp WiFi to upload photos and videos throughout the festival, sharing updates in real time on social media and with the public. This allowed us to maintain an active online presence, keeping attendees engaged and informed.

PopUp WiFi played a vital role in keeping the event running smoothly, ensuring both operational needs and attendee engagement were consistently met.

Producer’s Comments

We reached out to PopUp WiFi based on word of mouth and the strong reputation the team has for being reliable. We had heard nothing but great things about PopUp WiFi’s service, particularly in terms of providing stable and high-quality WiFi in event settings, which is crucial for keeping everything running smoothly.

The ability to seamlessly share updates, images, and videos from the festival in real time allowed us to bring the festival’s energy to those who couldn’t attend, building a sense of inclusion and excitement for everyone involved. It also allowed our social media team to keep the vibe alive throughout the event, sharing moments which helped maintain that special, intimate feeling the festival is known for. Backstage internet for artists helped them stay in touch with their fans and share their experiences with their audiences, enhancing the connection between performers and attendees. This made the festival feel more like a shared experience, where everyone whether backstage, on stage, or in the crowd was part of it.

Internet is such an integral part of the event, from supporting POS systems to keeping our media team connected and sharing live updates. That’s why we had a backup plan in place, just in case. Thankfully, they were never needed because PopUp WiFi delivered flawless service, ensuring everything ran seamlessly.

The whole Good Gumnuts Team would highly recommend PopUp WiFi without hesitation. From our experience, they were reliable, seamless, and provided excellent customer service. If you’re hosting an event where internet is crucial, whether it’s for transactions, media uploads, or just keeping everyone connected PopUp WiFi has our vote of confidence. Their team is professional, and everything just works. PopUp WiFi delivered exactly what they promised and what we needed.
