Somerset Event Spaces — Public Venue Booking & Event Management Platform

Somerset Event Spaces is the official booking portal for public venues across Taunton and West Somerset. From Vivary Park and Castle Green to Longrun Meadow, it provides organisers with a single hub to explore venues, check availability, and manage the end-to-end booking process. The platform goes beyond reservations by guiding organisers through essential steps such as event management planning, risk assessments, and safety reviews.

We built a complex event management system that balances clarity for public users with robust functionality for council staff. A structured booking journey helps organisers navigate requirements confidently, while integration with internal processes streamlines approvals, compliance and venue management.

Designed with accessibility and ease-of-use in mind, the site enables councils to showcase their spaces effectively, promote community events, and ensure regulatory standards are met at every stage.

Highlights you’ll see in this project:

• Venue showcase hub with detailed profiles for each public space

• Availability calendar to plan events at a glance

• Step-by-step booking system with integrated compliance checks

• Risk assessment and safety review workflows built into the process

• Mobile-friendly design to support organisers on the go
