Built for venues that host events all week

From live-music nights to private bookings, your venue runs a different event almost every night. Rekwest lets guests drive the music themselves while your team stays in control of what plays.

Let guests shape the night

Guests request and vote on songs straight from their phones, so the room stays engaged and the energy keeps building. Your staff just approve what fits.

Keep it on-brand

White-label the whole experience with your venue's logo and colours, and restrict requests to a playlist that matches your atmosphere, so nothing off-style slips through.

One setup for every event

Print one universal QR code and reuse it night after night, or create a dedicated event for a private booking. Guests without a phone handy can still join from a request kiosk you set up on a tablet.

How Event Venues manage Song Requests

1

Setup

Ahead of the night, your team sets up an event with the basics such as name, start time, and duration. Rekwest then generates a unique QR code or link guests use to request songs straight from their browser. No app installation or account creation is required for guests. Venues can customize QR code posters to fit their branding or event aesthetics. Besides using a separate QR code for each event, venues can also use a single QR code that always points to the current event. Venues can set rules to restrict song requests to specific playlists, ensuring the music fits the atmosphere and style of the venue.

2

During the Event

As guests submit and vote on song requests, venue staff view live updates and choose which songs to accept or decline to maintain the event's vibe. Accepted songs can be automatically added to Spotify, Apple Music, or SoundCloud playlists, or added to popular DJ software like Serato, Rekordbox, or VirtualDJ. Rekwest also allows venues to enable tipping and messages on requests, creating an opportunity for extra revenue and more guest engagement.

Post-Event

After the event, venues can send automated follow-up emails to attendees to thank them and promote upcoming events. Detailed analytics provided by Rekwest reveal popular songs and guest engagement metrics, helping venues tailor future playlists and events to maximize guest satisfaction.
