How we’ll support participating venues

We’ll help make your participation visible, clear and easy to manage.

City on a Roll will be supported by a coordinated campaign designed to build awareness of the event, showcase participating experiences and help wheelchair and mobility aid users plan their weekend with confidence.

Independence Australia will work closely with participating venues throughout the campaign, helping bring together the information, content and promotional activity needed to support both your involvement and the visitor experience.

Campaign promotion

Participating venues will have the opportunity to be featured as part of City on a Roll campaign activity across relevant Independence Australia channels. This will include website content, social media, email communications, venue spotlights and broader promotional activity designed to help audiences discover participating experiences and plan where they would like to visit.

Clear visitor information

We know that having the right information before visiting a venue can make a significant difference. We’ll work with you to clearly communicate your accessibility features, participating offer, booking requirements, and any other practical details visitors should know before they arrive.

Campaign coordination

Our team will work directly with participating venues to make the process as straightforward as possible. We’ll coordinate the collection of venue details, approved imagery, accessibility information and campaign content, and provide participating venues with the information and assets needed to support promotion through their own channels.
