From Fourvenues to Festejar

La Referència del Penedès wanted its own website

La Referència del Penedès sold its tickets with Fourvenues. It wanted a website of its own, to get closer to its crowd and take on some ambitious plans.

Now the listings, gallery, shop and tickets live on lareferenciadelpenedes.com under its own brand, and every purchase adds to its own customer list.
