Introducing Crescat’s powerful Venue Directory. Claim your Venue today!
After a successful launch earlier this year, we are delighted to roll out a huge upgrade to the Crescat Venue Directory to allow Venue Managers to claim their listing and drive bookings to their inbox, and to enable organisers to easily find the perfect space for their next event.
Whether you’re a Venue Operator or an Event Organiser or just curious about venues, here’s a quick run-through of how it works for you.
For Venues: Claim Your Venue and Manage Bookings Easily
With over 275,000 Google search impressions for the Crescat Venue Directory each month, having a clear, accurate online listing on the directory matters.
The Venue directory makes it super easy to put your venue in front of organisers who are actively looking to book, and best of all, it’s completely free.
How to claim your venue:
Find your venue in the Venue Directory: Just search for it at crescat.io/venues. With thousands of venues, we almost certainly have it, but if not, suggest your venue to us.
Claim your Venue: Submit your name and email address and any message to the Crescat team who review every Venue claim carefully.
Once your claim is approved, you can improve your listing:
Showcase all your spaces: Don't limit yourself to a basic contact form. Add every hireable room or space you have, complete with capacity limits, accessibility details, and full technical specifications.
Add a gallery of images: To really sell your venue to prospective organisers.
Update technical and accessibility specifications
Update contact details, address, website and social media links
Then, you can get more bookings:
Receive direct inquiries: Event organisers can easily send booking requests straight to your inbox in a standardised format, ensuring you get all the info you need to make a decision.
Improve discoverability: Get in on those hundreds of thousands of monthly impressions just by having a listing on the Venue Directory.
Claim your free Crescat dashboard: When you verify your venue with us, you can get access to a free Crescat Venue dashboard. This lets you handle incoming requests and manage your booking diary using the same software trusted by hundreds of music venues, theaters, and event spaces worldwide, reducing your email inbox bloat and giving you a dedicated space for managing your enquiries.
