Notre produit
Des services de covoiturage il en existe... Mais notre concept est différent. Il est fait spécifiquement pour les festivaliers.
Une seconde plateforme annexe est en cours de développement pour les festivals.
Carpooling application for festival-goers
From the festival's website or from a marketing email or ticket confirmation, festival-goers will be redirected to a web application (responsive - so accessible from a mobile browser too) where they can choose a carpooling departure area, then view and book journeys to the festival, and return journeys too.

Logistics application for festivals
Festivals have access to statistics on carpools carried out during the season, and CO2 emissions saved thanks to the application. They can also get an overview of their festival's outreach, as well as a logistical dashboard for their parking lots to optimize the flow of cars during the festival.
For our planet <3
Our main ambition is to facilitate the eco-responsible commitment of the festival sector.
More than 2/3 of the carbon emissions calculated by festivals come from audience attendance*.
From 2023 onwards, the French Regions and Ministry of Culture will make their subsidies conditional on festivals' eco-responsibility, in order to accelerate the sector's transition*.

A new way to carpool
For more collaboration, better organization and more CO2 savings
A platform dedicated to cultural carpooling
How about singing our favorite song by the artist we're going to see?
One common destination: the festival
Predefined starting points
Your audience certainly shares many interests. But one thing's for sure: they share a passion for your cultural event!
A social app
Access to culture for all!
Our cultural carpooling platform promotes a more inclusive form of mobility:
Easier travel for seniors and students
Easier travel for people with reduced mobility
Making festival venues accessible to rural audiences
Possibility of offering "safe car" trips (only women on board) - 2025
Why Festicar?
Festicar's market, at the intersection of car sharing and cultural organisations, is extremely promising for several reasons. Festicar's solution responds to increasingly pressing ecological, economic and social issues that are generating growing interest among consumers, businesses and public authorities.
Ecological challenges
Festivals generate a considerable carbon footprint, largely due to individual travel by festival-goers. In France, transport accounts for over 70% of the CO2 emissions of a typical music event. Organisations, under pressure from social expectations and regulations, are actively seeking to become greener.
Support for public initiatives
In 2023, the French Ministry of Culture has made certain subsidies conditional on an effort to promote ecological transition. It is also a priority for local authorities, which are increasingly inclined to support events that minimise their environmental impact.
Economic Challenges
Growth in the shared mobility market
For the public, car-sharing is a cost-effective way of getting to events, particularly in the face of rising energy and public transport costs.
Cost optimisation for organisers
Fewer cars mean less need for parking infrastructure and easier management of visitor flows, which can reduce organisational costs.
By offering sustainable transport solutions, cultural organisations can attract sponsors and partners interested in green initiatives.
Social Challenges
Accessibilité accrue aux lieux de culture
Festicar rend les festivals et autres lieux culturels plus accessibles pour ceux qui n'ont pas de véhicule personnel ou qui habitent loin des transports en commun. En facilitant le covoiturage, la plateforme permet à un plus grand nombre de personnes, y compris celles vivant dans des zones rurales ou mal desservies, de participer à des événements culturels.
Strengthening the community
Festicar helps to create a community of spectators who share not only a journey, but also common experiences and interests. This social dimension enriches the festival/event experience, and promoting shared values such as sustainability and environmental responsibility can further unite audiences.

Additional services
Setting up the platform
Festicar works directly with the organisers to integrate information specific to each event (planned meeting points, soon to be reserved parking options).
Support & Assistance
A responsive customer service team to help with any problems, ensuring a smooth experience (telephone and email) for getting to grips with the platform and collecting feedback for continuous improvement.
Intervention and raising awareness
Depending on the package chosen, our team will visit your cultural venue and set up a stand to welcome the public and raise awareness of car-sharing. We also carry out an audience survey and share the results with you.
Our added value
Festicar stands out from the competition in a number of ways that make it not only innovative but also perfectly suited to the specific needs of cultural event organisers and their audiences. Here's what makes our solution unique:
Exclusive focus on cultural structures
Our specialisation enables us to create a tailor-made user experience, with features and services specifically designed to meet the needs of event organisers' audiences. Led by Emily REMY, music producer, artist agent and festival organiser, our platform is based on our in-depth knowledge of the cultural sector, enabling us to work closely with event organisers to offer logistical solutions tailored to each structure.
Proximity to organisations and their audiences
Festicar is more than just a platform for putting people in touch with each other. We work in partnership with venues to integrate our service directly into their organisation. This includes promoting Festicar via the venues' official channels, dedicated meeting points for carpoolers at the event venues, and special offers for Festicar users.
Our team travels to festivals and other cultural venues to talk to audiences to promote carpooling and fine-tune our solution to best suit them.
Commitment and carbon impact calculator
Nous ne nous contentons pas de faciliter le covoiturage ; nous permettons également à nos utilisateurs de mesurer concrètement leur impact environnemental. Notre calculateur d’empreinte carbone montre en temps réel combien d’émissions de CO2 ont été évitées grâce au covoiturage, ce qui encourage une prise de conscience écologique chez les spectateurs et les incite à opter pour des modes de transport plus durables.
Nous mettons à disposition le comparateur d’émissions carbone de l’ADEME, afin de promouvoir une meilleure compréhension et représentation des économies.
Community approach
Festicar goes beyond carpooling by creating a community of spectators who share common values and interests, enhancing the social experience of events.
Festicar carpool users can start the festivities even before arriving at the cultural venue. The advantage of targeted carpooling is that we're all going to the same place for the same reason!
Stack - for the geeks
The stack is quite simple, we only use Ruby on Rails. It's a framework (a set of computer components used to architect software or, in our case, an application) with a development philosophy to which we adhere completely (if you want other developers' opinions), which is reliable, secure and which every developer likes to work with.
