Case Study: Mile of Music creates a better festival fan experience with Xamarin

Mile of Music creates the ultimate music festival fan experience with intelligent apps

The Mile of Music festival in Appleton, Wisconsin, needed to create a unique mobile experience for its 70,000+ attendees, allowing them to listen to music samples, create schedules, get directions, and connect with artists. The festival organizers partnered with Xamarin Premier Consulting Partner Skyline and leveraged Xamarin to build an app that would also gather crucial data to improve operations and attendee satisfaction.

Using Xamarin, the solution was built to share over 95% of its code across iOS and Android, optimizing performance with Azure to handle the scaling demands of the festival. The vendor's tools ensured high quality through automated testing and crash reporting. The resulting app provided invaluable insights via beacons and Power BI, using heat maps to improve crowd flow and deliver real-time notifications, enhancing the overall fan experience.
