Your tango festival, without the allocation spreadsheet
Classes across several days, several rooms and guest maestros: a festival is selection multiplied by the programme. Media Luna brings together the public programme, registration with class choices, class-by-class decisions and payment after acceptance - from the first participant to the last class filled.
Designed for the reality of a festival
- Public day-by-day programme: classes, milongas, rooms, levels and maestro profiles
- Registration with class choices: every dancer builds their own path based on their pass, on mobile
- Waitlisted wishes on full classes: a place opens up, you promote in one click
- Schedule conflicts blocked at registration: requesting two classes in the same slot is impossible
- Fill tracking per class: requested, accepted, paid and role balance, in real time
- Couples handled as consistent units: accepted or declined together, just like at a marathon
- Programme conflict detection for organisers: a double-booked room, maestro or slot is spotted before your participants see it
- Per-class check-in on event day: your staff scan at the room door, the right person in the right class
- Teacher portal: every maestro finds their schedule and practical details, without email back-and-forth
What it looks like
Classes, milongas, rooms, levels and maestros: your public programme reads at a glance, day by day.
At registration, they pick their classes based on their pass - full classes become waitlisted wishes, schedule conflicts are blocked.
Requested, accepted, paid, role balance: you manage each class at a glance, without cross-referenced spreadsheets.
Selection, multiplied by the classes
A marathon is decided once: role balance, couples, waitlist. A festival replays that decision for every class: the same dancer is accepted in one, waitlisted in another, and the role balance plays out room by room. That's exactly what the allocation spreadsheet can't keep up with.
Media Luna shows, for every class, the requests, acceptances, payments and leader / follower balance. You decide request by request, the review queue shows the classes requested, and every change of choice stays on record. Dancers, for their part, know from registration that their choices are subject to your confirmation.
Full pass, seminars, packs: tickets that mirror your programme
Sell full access (full pass), a themed seminar over a fixed set of classes, a pack of classes of the dancer's choice, or single classes. Milongas are included in your passes and shown on the programme; a milonga can also be sold on its own, like a classic ticket.
And if you don't select - an open milonga, an edition without review - direct registration is one setting away: requests are accepted immediately and payment follows. Reminders, expirations and refunds stay the same.
How do you get your money?
Your money never passes through Media Luna. Payments go straight to a Stripe account in your name - set up in fifteen minutes, with your IBAN - and Stripe transfers the funds to your bank account at the pace you choose. The Media Luna commission is deducted at source, with no subscription or setup fees; what remains are Stripe's processing fees, around 1.5% plus €0.25 per payment, like a card terminal.
What about your participants' data?
You remain in charge of your participants' data; Media Luna hosts it on your behalf, in Europe, and never sells it or uses it elsewhere. If you leave, your data is returned to you.
Also organising marathons or milongas?
The festival isn't a separate tool: it's the same Media Luna as for a marathon or a milonga. Same registrations, same selection, same payments - with the programme and classes on top. You keep a single place to track everything, edition after edition.
