Theatre Forum is now Performing Arts Forum

17th July

Want to know more about your audience? Are you trying to engage more first timers, revive lapsed customers, increase frequency or just understand more about your audience behaviour?

Watch an online event that took place on Wednesday 17th July at 2pm where Kerry and Ellie from Indigo talked you through what being a part of Indigo Share: Ireland will actually look like for you and your team. This interactive demo and Q&A session familiarised those who attend with what a post show survey looks like, how to get it out to audiences, and the ways to view your data.

Cultural organisations have the potential to be an integral part of their local area, embedded in the lives of the people they aim to serve. Indigo can help you to connect with your local community, by understanding more about who they are, how they engage with culture and what they want from a culture or heritage organisation.

The Marketing Forum took place on Wednesday, 10th July at 2pm (Online event on Zoom)

The Marketing Forum was about working together to find realistic fixes to the issues we all face.

Across all the arts centres, theatres and festivals participating in Performing Arts Forum’s Audience Insights, 77% of ticket buyers bought tickets once only.  If half had come to just one more event bringing just one person with them, the participating organisations would have earned an extra €5.6 million.

So, why aren’t they coming back and what can we do about it?

Katy Raines from Indigo, Heather Maitland and marketers and managers from Performing Arts Forum’s member organisations met on 10th July to find out!
