Pre-ordering
Faced with the need for a single, efficient platform for festival attendees to order all essential items ahead of time, Bloodstock aimed to improve the user experience, boost pre-order sales, and streamline payment distribution for multiple vendors.

In August 2024, Bloodstock Festival, one of the UK’s premier heavy metal festivals, collaborated with Preo to simplify and enhance their pre-order experience.
Challenge For Bloodstock, convenience was key: festival-goers needed a one-stop shop where they could find and pre-order all necessary items in one place. Historically, items were available through different vendors, making it difficult for attendees to navigate various purchasing platforms.
