2010 New Zealand International Arts Festival

The Festival team have a very clear vision for their website - they need it to promote their event and inspire people to attend shows. This means clear information about the artists and events and a simple booking function.

All of this information needs to be beautifully presented with design that reflects the high energy of the event, its creative roots, and the fresh, dynamic nature of the productions.

For the 2010 season we kept all the qualities the Festival site is known for - bold colours, clever use of imagery, strong typography and intuitive navigation - and added new levels of functionality.

A new calendar, show selector and 'shortlist' help festival-goers to hand-pick and hang onto shows they're interested in before booking tickets.

We also evolved a new valued feature - Festival Broadcast - so people can preview acts and shows.

The site makes it easy for people to find the event information they're looking for while enticing them to explore other parts of the programme.
