The City of Edinburgh Council manages some of the city’s most iconic cultural spaces, but their digital experience was previously spread across five disconnected websites. We worked with the Council to design and build Culture Edinburgh, a single, scalable platform that brings together music, festivals, museums, and events into one intuitive destination.
Built on Payload CMS and integrated with Spektrix, the platform delivers seamless ticketing, dynamic content, and a rich “What’s On” calendar that’s easy to filter by venue, date, or category. Designed for both performance and usability, it supports donations, mailing preferences, and personalised user accounts, all managed by a small internal team.
The new platform improves accessibility, boosts visibility of Edinburgh’s cultural offerings, and provides a powerful foundation for future expansion. It’s a confident step forward for a city with culture at its core.
