Real-time field, court, and venue status. Open, closed, or anything in between — in under a second.
VenueStatus is the simplest way for sports leagues, schools, and parks to tell their community whether tonight is on, off, or moved. One tap from your phone. Instant updates for every parent, coach, and player.
No credit card. Five-minute setup. Free plan stays free forever.
Stop running the phone tree.
No more "is practice on?" texts.
Update once, every parent who subscribed gets pushed, emailed, or texted automatically.
No more outdated Facebook posts.
Your status page is the single source of truth, with a timestamp every visitor can see.
No more weather guessing.
Set a "next update" time so parents stop refreshing every five minutes.
Three steps. Five minutes. You're live.
- 1
Create your Org.
Sign up with Google, Apple, or email. Pick a name and a public URL like venuestatus.com/your-org.
- 2
Add your locations and venues.
A location is a complex (e.g. "South Park"), a venue is a specific surface (e.g. "Field 3"). Build the hierarchy that matches your real organization.
- 3
Tap a status when conditions change.
Open. Closed. Soft surface. Lights only. Add a free-form note. The public page updates instantly and notifications fan out.
Built for the way real organizations actually run.
Hierarchical statuses.
Cancel a complex with one tap when the storm hits, or override individual fields when conditions vary surface-to-surface.
Three-channel notifications.
Push and email free for everyone; SMS on Pro and Enterprise. We honor STOP, unsubscribes, and quiet hours by default.
Embeddable widget.
Drop one line of HTML into your league website and the live status appears, automatically.
Public JSON API.
Every Org has an unauthenticated read-only API at venuestatus.com/api/v1/orgs/{slug}.json. Pipe statuses into anything.
Reaffirm without changing.
One tap re-stamps the status as still-current without sending a notification. Parents see "as of 6:42 pm".
Mobile-native admin app.
Built with Flutter for iOS and Android. Loads in two seconds. Queues writes when you lose signal.
Free for everyone. Premium for people who want to pay for less.

Frequently asked.
- How long does setup take?
- About five minutes for a single complex with a few fields. Bigger orgs with dozens of venues, maybe twenty.
- Do parents need to download an app?
- No. The public page is a regular website. Push notifications work directly in modern browsers — no app required.
- Will my parents see ads?
- On the Free plan, yes — non-personalized, contextual ads only, below the status. Upgrade to Pro to remove them.
- Is there an API?
- Yes. Every Org has a free, no-auth, read-only JSON API at venuestatus.com/api/v1/orgs/{slug}.json.
- What happens if I cancel?
- You can downgrade to Free at any time. If you delete your Org, we keep it for 30 days in case you change your mind, then permanently delete.
