Introduction

Northlands School — a bilingual school and pioneer in educational innovation — wanted to modernize ticket sales for its concerts and academic ceremonies. Using the Camerata Bariloche concert as a pilot, they abandoned printed ticket booklets and adopted digital tickets with QR codes, instant access control, and automatic staff benefits.

The challenge: paper, lines, and little flexibility

Limitations before Fanz

• Physical ticket booklets → risk of loss and forgery.

• Slow manual validation causing long lines.

• Need to securely apply exclusive discounts for staff.

• Two campuses (Olivos and Nordelta) with different requirements.

The solution: QR platform adapted to the school environment

QR tickets and instant check-in

• Tickets sent by email with a QR code.

• Door scanning: validation in <1 second, eliminating lines.

Automatic staff discounts

• Staff enter their ID once.

• The system recognizes the profile and applies the benefit instantly.

Multi-campus management

• Independent venues and seating capacities for Olivos and Nordelta.

• Consolidated reports for Management and Finance.

Results from the first concert

* Internal post-event survey.

Testimonial

“With Fanz we sent the QR, scanned it at the door, and that was it. The system applied the staff discount just by entering the ID. After this pilot with Camerata Bariloche, we want to use Fanz for all events, regardless of campus.”

— Elvira Gowland, Head of Communications at Northlands School

1. Modernized the audience experience with digital tickets and instant validation.
