Australia’s Best Gig Guide Comes To Facebook

6 November 2014 | 4:23 pm | Staff Writer

A guide for every venue in the country!

After the resounding success of theMusic.com.au’s The Guide on the site and the industry-leading The Music App, the gig guide is coming to Facebook.

The app will be available for all venues across Australia. Sitting on their respective Facebook pages, it will be kept up to date by theMusic.com.au’s team of editors and journalists. The time-consuming effort of keeping their venue’s Facebook listings accurate will now be outsourced.

For the punter, it has full search functionality – meaning that music lovers across the country can search via specific dates or artists at the venue.

As will the website version of The Guide, punters will be able to go direct to ticket purchases and easily add the event to their calendars.

“We’ve made the Facebook version of The Guide as easy as possible for venues and punters alike,” said Head Of Digital and theMusic.com.au Editor Scott Fitzsimons. “All the functionality and accuracy that’s made The Guide the number one gig guide in the country is all present and accounted for. Less time spent looking for what to do, more time spent getting that first drink in the room.”

A demonstration of the Facebook App, for Melbourne’s Corner Hotel, can be viewed here.
