Although the Toowoomba Royal Show is a huge annual event, the new website needed to showcase the range of facilities the show grounds had to offer. The team wanted to increase awareness and enquiries for the venue hire. What's more, the Toowoomba Showgrounds holds regular events throughout the year so the easily organised events module will showcase everything there is to offer.

But, more than that, our combination of in-house designers and programmers meant we were the the ‘one-stop-shop’ for RASQ. Not only could we build a brand new, flash looking website in house, but our designers could also work with our programmers to designer a new ticketing portal helping the Toowoomba Royal Show run smoothly.

To start, we put the venues available for hire at the Toowoomba Showgrounds at the front and centre of the homepage on their new website. With a dedicated venue section, which showcases each room or area available for hire, and ‘book this venue’ button on each separate venue, it is now easy for website visitors to book the perfect venue for their event. We incorporated sliding image banners so people got a clear image of what the venue looks like to help aid in the decision making process.

Ticketing System

The Toowoomba Royal Show needed a new ticketing system that would give a more streamlined process at the gate and give them access to a simple portal to manage online ticket sales and view ticketing data. The ticketing system would provide barcoding for each ticket which would create ease and save time when show goers are entering the gates.

People could also plan ahead by filtering entertainment based on days they intended to go. The new website attracted new visitors and The Toowoomba Royal Show had record breaking pre-show ticket sales online since the new website has been launched.
