Reviving a Festival Brand with a Modern Touch
Live on the Wye is a beloved community music festival held in the heart of the Wye Valley. With its family-friendly atmosphere and diverse line-up, the festival needed a new website that better reflected its vibrant energy and grassroots ethos. The previous site was dated, hard to update, and not mobile-friendly—making it challenging to share updates or sell tickets effectively. The aim was to create a fresh, responsive design that could serve as a hub for festival-goers, performers, and volunteers alike.
A Bold and Playful New Design
The redesign of liveonthewye.co.uk captures the excitement and spirit of the festival through bold colours, playful typography, and dynamic imagery. A clear event structure was introduced, with sections for the line-up, tickets, volunteering, and family activities. The homepage features large callouts for important information like dates and ticket sales, while the layout ensures an easy browsing experience across all devices. Behind the scenes, the site is easy to update—so the organisers can stay agile in the lead-up to the event.
Driving Engagement and Festival Growth
The new website is already helping to generate buzz and streamline communication with attendees. With a focus on clarity, responsiveness, and community-driven design, the platform provides a strong foundation for future growth. From improved accessibility to a more engaging user journey, this project demonstrates our ability to craft digital experiences that not only look great but also empower community events to thrive online.
