The Lost Gardens of Heligan is one of the most beloved gardens in the UK, attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors each year. But with a legacy ticketing system that no longer enabled them to make sense of data, they faced a pivotal moment: how to future-proof their systems without overwhelming internal teams or blowing the budget.

Derry City & Strabane District Council is developing a new museum, the DNA Museum, set to open in 2026 at the historic Ebrington site. It will be a modern, interactive space celebrating the area’s global heritage. Alongside it is the Guildhall, a popular and beautifully restored venue already welcoming over 170,000 visitors each year.

The Council was looking for expert independent advice on the best ticketing, events management and EPOS systems to improve the visitor experience, create operational efficiencies and drive growth, whilst supporting the development of a brand new attraction.

Lakeland Arts is responsible for several award-winning arts and heritage galleries and museums, in Windermere and Kendal in Cumbria. Each of these cultural venues is unique in its experience and customer base. 

With one gallery re-opening in May 2023, after a refurbishment, Lakeland Arts had an opportunity to take a fresh look at the market and consider a better fit, for both operational and commercial requirements, as well as system cost. This procurement project had to be completed within an extremely short timescale.

The requirements of this project were complex. Lakeland Arts needed a solution for a multi-site operation, across ticketing, membership, groups, events, retail and CRM.

Having successfully launched their venue ticketing product at Hever Castle, LIVE IT saw an opportunity within the visitor attractions sector. However, a knowledge gap was identified within the business, which required a clear strategy for growth.

ReWork was approached to support LIVE IT to become ‘market ready’ and successfully launch into the sector to grow their market share and increase profits.
