Bardar — Make the most of every night out
Bardar is a new map app that connects nightlife patrons to venues and events in real-time. Initially based in Sydney, we display over 350 bars, pubs and nightclubs along with info about these venues such as what's on, ticketed events and live busyness data.

If executed well this can be a great idea. I think you should promote it in Sydney based groups or via local influencers to get initial critical mass quickly. Congratulations on the launch .
@alexander_okonji Hi Alex, currently we're only in Sydney (Australia), but in the future we do plan to expand to multiple cities around the world.
Congrats on the launch Dexter 🚀
How much effort does adding a new city involve?
Asking because you didn't launch with the greatest city in Australia aka Melbourne 😂
@jgani Hi Jonni - Melbourne is definitely on the cards for us! With our current setup, it takes us about a week to onboard a new city, however, it's more about supporting any launch with a marketing effort to ensure success that is costly and time-consuming. TLDR though we do plan to launch in Melbourne before the end of 2024!
@djft Love your attitude towards marketing. I agree with you. It's important.
My comment about Melbourne was tongue in cheek, don't let it influence your roadmap :)
All the best with Bardar, Dexter.
Congrats on launching! Looks very cool!
Looking forward to cover cities in other countries!
This is cool - and looks super slick (although I struggled a little with your stretched font!). Congratulations on launching - big moment! A Q: How are you thinking about commercialisation? Do venues pay to be featured? Do users subscribe to access?
@jade_grimwood Hi Jade - thank you! To answer your question we will always keep Bardar free for our end users (nightlife patrons) and we have several different commercialisation strategies. Our primary focus is currently generating a critical mass of users, but down the track, we'd be looking to generate revenue through partnering with venues, promoters and nightlife industry stakeholders to offer unique deals, rewards and promotions through the app to consumers.
@djft Love it. So very cool! Great to see you in the PH newsletter today too! Best of luck as you build into the future.
@manofthe_match Thanks Maran! We love hearing that Bardar is helping people have great nights out!
@can13 Hi Can, thank you! We definitely plan to expand beyond Australia. First to Europe and the UK, and after that the US and SEA.
@tiepvuvan Yes, absolutely! Our goal is to become your ultimate nightlife guide, whether you're in Berlin or Buenos Aires. Just a few funding rounds between now and then haha.
@djft Great! Look forward to it.
And hey, I just launched my new product, too. A tool to transform data sheets into mobile apps. If possible, I would love to have you take a look: https://www.producthunt.com/post....
Love to hear your thought, too!
Wow. Great application. Very excited to use this in my life! When you were developing, what map you go for a map based interface over a scroll option?
@stephanie_goldsmith Hi Stephanie, seeing where you are relative to various events/venues is really important for the decision making process on a night out, which is why we decided to focus on a map rather than a list view. Plus lists are boring.
