Tourism PR celebrates Edinburgh as a destination city

Red61, the ticketing software firm that for the last decade has been tasked with implementing the ticketing for Edinburgh Fringe Festival, has once again delivered an outstanding performance at this year’s event.

Red61’s VIA ticketing system enabled the smooth and successful running of the world’s largest arts festival, which the Edinburgh based company has worked in partnership with since 2005.

This year alone, the company enabled the sale of more than 2 million of the 2.3 million tickets sold over the course of the renowned festival.

Reflecting on a 40% year on year growth, Red61 has seen its own revenue reach the £1million mark.  Company director Tony Davey is confident this level of growth will continue and accelerate, thanks to the imminent implementation of its first proactive sales campaign.

The company has also begun an international expansion, due to the successful relationship with the Fringe, attaining work in Australia, France, Canada, Abu Dhabi and South Africa.
