What is Sway?

Sway is dedicated to the electronic music scene: a mobile app to go out with, and a web app to organise with. Together they let you:

  • 🔍 Discover upcoming raves, festivals and concerts near you
  • 🎵 Follow your favourite artists, promoters and venues
  • 🗓️ Save events to your personal calendar
  • ➕ Create and manage your own events, artists, venues & promoter pages
  • 🎟️ Buy tickets and manage your orders directly in the app

Two apps, two jobs

Sway is a mobile app for going out, and a web app for organising. Most of this documentation is split along that line, so start by knowing which one you are in.

Web app — organise

Set up your pages, sell tickets, get paid. Everything an organizer does lives here, including the guided setup.

Mobile app — go out

Discover events, follow artists, buy tickets. You can also create and edit your pages from your phone.
Both apps can create a promoter, artist, venue or event page. Selling tickets and being paid for them is web only — payouts are connected there and nowhere else. Full comparison on the Web app page.
