The Klein Karoo is to go hi-tech this Easter, with Internet service provider M-Web operating a substantial electronic information system to assist visitors to the Klein Karoo Nasionale Kunstefees (KKNK).
As the official information provider at this year`s festival, M-Web is setting up four information towers across the festival venues, with 16 Internet-connected PCs to help visitors find information on events and bookings. Festival visitors will be able to check weather forecasts, look up event listings and buy event tickets online. Computicket swipe machines will also be in close proximity, allowing visitors to swipe their credit cards and collect tickets.
In addition to the information towers, M-Web is also erecting an electronic billboard to keep visitors up to date with weather conditions, festival activities, extra shows and competitions.
"Through our experience with other similar ventures we`ve realised that this kind of information serves as an invaluable service to festival-goers", says Andrew Milne, Chief Operating Officer for M-Web. "People are able to find the exact information they are looking for quickly and easily without having to stand in long queues. We look forward to making this event a rich, entertaining experience for everyone."
The Klein Karoo festival takes place from 30 March to 6 April. For more information, go to www.kknk.co.za.
