PickleJar to Provide Ticketing Services for Bogalusa Blues & Heritage Festival

PickleJar Entertainment Group, Inc. (OTC Pink: PKLE) has been selected to provide ticketing services for the Bogalusa Blues & Heritage Festival, a leading blues festival in the Gulf Coast region, the company announced Wednesday. The engagement marks a new commercial deployment of PickleJar’s Venue Managed Services (VMS) platform and extends the company’s footprint in live event technology.

Held annually in Bogalusa, Louisiana, the Bogalusa Blues & Heritage Festival has built a regional reputation as a cornerstone destination for blues music in the Gulf South. The 2026 festival is scheduled for September 25 and 26, with a full artist lineup to be announced in the coming weeks.

PickleJar will power ticketing for the festival through its VMS platform, helping organizers streamline ticket sales, improve attendee access, and capture audience data. The deployment reflects PickleJar’s strategy of building single-event engagements into longer-term platform relationships through its integrated suite of venue and fan-engagement tools.

Through the PickleJar platform, the festival will have access to flexible ticketing fee structures designed to support organizer margins, direct-to-consumer ticket sales with integrated pre-event fan engagement, data capture tools that provide audience insights for future marketing and retention, and year-round attendee communication tools to build loyalty and lower audience-acquisition costs for future events.

This engagement is consistent with management’s stated strategy of deploying VMS technology across regional festival markets, with the goal of converting single-event engagements into multi-year platform relationships alongside the company’s nationally syndicated radio and artist-promotion businesses.

‘We’re excited to partner with the Bogalusa Blues & Heritage Festival to support their continued growth,’ said Kristian Barowsky, President and Co-Founder of PickleJar Entertainment Group, in a statement. ‘Our platform is designed to help organizers better serve their attendees through competitive ticketing, while giving them the tools to stay connected with fans year-round and build momentum for future events. Each VMS deployment like Bogalusa adds to the live event model we’re building.’

‘We are excited to partner with PickleJar to help us grow the festival and understand our patrons in greater detail, so we can serve them better as we grow bigger and better each year,’ said Michelle Goode, Executive Chair of the Bogalusa Blues & Heritage Festival.

The Bogalusa engagement reflects the continued commercial buildout of PickleJar’s three-pillar revenue model: nationally syndicated radio through PickleJar Up All Night, now airing across more than 82 affiliate stations; artist promotion and fan engagement through its integrated technology platform; and live event services and ticketing through Venue Managed Services. Each business unit is designed to complement the others, capturing fan data at multiple touchpoints while supporting diversified revenue.

Regional festivals such as the Bogalusa Blues & Heritage Festival represent an underserved market for modern, integrated ticketing and fan-engagement solutions. PickleJar’s platform is built to serve this segment, offering organizers capable tools at accessible price points while allowing the company to build audience-data assets and longer-term client relationships.
