Walkthrough chapters
Excel is fast, flexible and familiar, which is why event teams rely on it. But as live event budgets evolve, versions multiply, formulas become fragile, assumptions get buried and reporting becomes harder to control.
ShowBudget is designed to keep the practical speed of event budgeting while making the core workflow clearer, more structured and easier to review.
For promoters, producers, finance leads and project teams who need clearer control of live event budgets as assumptions change.
We are currently onboarding a small group of event professionals to review ShowBudget and test it with sample or anonymised budgets. The pilot is designed to gather practical feedback on the workflow, terminology, outputs and missing functionality before wider release.
