More Entrants.
Less Guesswork.

Grow your event with marketing built by people who run events.

You handle the starting line. Barefoot helps you fill it. From social to search to smart automation, we help event organisers across Australia and New Zealand grow their numbers, using the same event-day understanding that goes into our registration and timing.

Why Barefoot

We already understand your event.

We're not a generic agency learning your world from scratch, Barefoot lives in registration and timing every day. We know the late-entry trend, the cash-flow squeeze, the seasonality, and what actually moves participant numbers.

One partner, start line to finish line.

Registration, timing and growth in one place mean less admin and a team that sees the full picture of your event.

Built for AU & NZ events.

Local market, local audiences, local support.

Sized for events, not enterprises.

Flexible support that scales with your event, whether you're growing a community 5km or a major endurance series.

What We Do
