Our Story

We're building the event OS for Africa.

Savanna Event is the three-app platform that handles ticketing, engagement, and gate entry โ€” giving Nigerian event organizers a powerful tool and attendees a seamless journey.

One long queue. One clear problem.

Our founding team spent years attending and running events across Lagos. The tools were always the bottleneck โ€” counterfeit paper tickets, manual sign-in spreadsheets, and hours-long queues for events that sold out in minutes.

Existing platforms were built for other markets. They didn’t account for Nigerian payment flows, network connectivity, or the scale of events that happen every weekend in Lagos alone.

So we built Savanna Event โ€” three purpose-built apps covering ticketing, organiser management, and gate entry, connected into one platform.

Our Values

What we believe in

Event organizers juggle too many tools โ€” spreadsheets, messaging apps, manual check-in. Savanna Event replaces them all with a purpose-built ecosystem designed for the Nigerian market.

Built for Africa

Every design decision reflects how events actually run in Nigeria โ€” connectivity, culture, and commerce included.

Speed above all

Whether it’s ticket checkout or gate validation, we obsess over making every interaction feel instant.

Trust by design

Biometric logins, cryptographic QR codes, and end-to-end encryption protect every organiser and attendee.

Partner, not vendor

We embed with organiser teams before major events to make sure the platform performs when it matters most.

Built by people who love events.
