The full case study continues below
Musicians planning a regional tour often need to piece together information about venues, locations and possible routes from multiple sources.
MusicNSW wanted to make that process easier through the Regional Touring Network: a public product that would help artists discover venues across New South Wales and plan how those locations could form part of a tour.
Cartisan designed and developed an interactive directory combining venue information, mapping and route planning. Artists could explore and filter locations, build potential routes and share relevant venue information.
Built with Mapbox and Kirby CMS, the product was delivered as a coherent spatial experience, with our team supporting the work from initial scoping and product definition through to design, development, testing and launch.
