Peterborough, the 'City of Festivals' Selects Tourism Pro
28th August 2018
Categories: Our News
The heritage city of Peterborough is the latest destination to opt for the Tourism Pro web solution from New Mind | tellUs.
Based in the heart of rural East England, Peterborough shares borders with Cambridgeshire, Lincolnshire, Northamptonshire and Rutland and is one of the fastest growing cities in the UK, with a population of around 200,000.
2018 is a big year for festivals in Peterborough so the new site will be fundamental to the promotion of the city's packed calendar and growing reputation as the East Midlands' City of Festivals. The jewel in the city's crown, Peterborough Cathedral (where Katharine of Aragon is buried and Mary Queen of Scots used to be) also celebrates its 900th birthday this year so the new site will be the information hub for the celebrations. The Flag Fen Archaeology Park, the finest Bronze Age archaeological site in Northern Europe, will also be featured, enticing visitors to step back 3,500 years and view the huge collection of ancient objects on display. The area's abundance of nature reserves and country parks, vibrant shopping centres and great choice of places to eat and drink will also be in the spotlight on Visit Peterborough's new site.
The Tourism Pro solution will provide Visit Peterborough with increased functionality, new dynamic features and a range of new visitor touch points to drive bookings, delivering the ultimate solution in terms of flexibility and feature-rich functionality.
Tracy Snooks, Peterborough Tourism Information Manager said: "The new Visit Peterborough website will be a great way to showcase the fantastic events and attractions we have on offer in the city. The eye-catching design and excellent user experience across all devices will enable visitors to find the information they are looking for quickly and easily. We have chosen to continue our relationship with New Mind | tellUs as they are one of the leading website providers within the tourism sector and have provided a professional service throughout the project."
