Interschools Music Festival

Interschools Music Festival – Website Redesign & Development

We recently had the pleasure of working with the team at the Interschools Music Festival to launch a brand-new website—just in time for their January application period.

The Interschools Music Festival is a long-running and respected event that gives primary and secondary school students a unique opportunity to perform, compete, and represent their schools in a supportive musical environment. With a growing number of entries and increasing demand for an easy online process, the organisers needed a digital upgrade that matched the scale and spirit of the festival.

What They Needed

The team behind the festival came to us with two clear goals:

1. To modernise the look and feel of their website
2. To streamline and simplify the application process for schools, parents, and students

The previous site had become dated and difficult to manage, particularly during the high-traffic application period. Our task was to create a clean, modern, and user-friendly platform that made information accessible and applications stress-free.

What We Delivered

Website Redesign

We completely refreshed the site’s layout and visual identity, making it vibrant, welcoming, and representative of the energy and creativity the festival is known for.

Website Development

Built on a flexible, easy-to-manage CMS, the site is now faster, fully mobile-responsive, and optimised for both front-end users and admin management behind the scenes.

SEO Optimisation

We implemented technical and content-focused SEO best practices to improve visibility for key search terms—helping the festival reach more schools, parents, and music teachers across Ireland.

Custom Application Process

We developed a user-friendly online application system to support multiple entry categories and age levels. The process is now more efficient for applicants and easier for the organisers to manage.

The Result

The new Interschools Music Festival website launched in perfect time for this year’s application cycle. It’s clear, easy to navigate, and provides all the information users need—whether they’re entering, attending, or simply learning more about the event.

We’re proud to have played a part in modernising the festival’s digital presence and helping to ensure the application experience is smooth, accessible, and future-proofed.
