Venga

Memories in the making. We want to help people enjoy life together in the real world by making it effortless and joyful to host and attend events. The best gatherings, parties, and adventures aren’t just about the moments themselves – they’re about the excitement leading up to them and the memories that last long after. That’s why we’re building Venga, the event app designed to become your go-to tool for coordinating festivities, escapades, and adventures with your friends, loved ones and soon-to-become ones. Venga is designed to bring more joy and less stress to both hosts and guests. Our debut version is now live on the App Store, with exciting upcoming feature updates and the Android release just around the corner.
