Future of Live Events with Ed Vincent (CEO festivalPass)

Zoom fatigued? I guess we are in the same boat. Nobody wants to be on another Zoom call or attend a webinar. We just want to get back to meeting people, listen to live music and get inspired by live speeches.

Certainly, during this time, people got creative and thought of new ways to interact online and there were new trends that were starting to spark pre-COVID. In this episode, I speak with Ed Vincent, CEO of festivalPass, a market place for live events, talks to us about what types of live events we are going to see in the future and how technology is helping festival organizers be creative about combining the best of live and virtual shows.

Here is what we will learn;

- Why is Austin becoming the hot destination
- How festivalPass is improving the way we find live events
- How is the pandemic going to change our relationship with events
- Ways of human connectivity changing how events are organized
- Pre-COVID and future trends of festivals
