Make it easier to get to your arena with smart trip planning

Getting event attendees to your arena is what TripProximity is all about.  Because when it is easier to get to you, more people will buy tickets to your events.  And for your loyal season ticket holders and your groups, you have something new to offer to them that adds more value to the relationship.

When someone from out of town plans to attend an event at your arena, it is natural for them to wonder: “Where do I stay?”    With TripProximity, your site becomes a 24-hour concierge and provides an integrated answer: at a hotel nearby.  Plus it includes driving directions and optional car rental and air booking, as is a map of where your arena is located.

I love basketball and my friends and I pooled our money and got season tickets to our favorite team.  Since we know that we’ll have more than a few adult beverages at the games, we always make a full weekend of it, getting hotel rooms nearby.

 

I was so excited to see that the arena put a VISIT US page on their site, as it is so much easier to find available hotels nearby.  And they donate money to our local Children’s Hospital.  My son spent 3 months in their ICU when he was born, so that means even more to me!

With our smart trip technology, including our smart map, we reduce the amount of time spent on planning the logistics of getting to your arena.  We know that time matters, both for your staff who answer the “where should I stay?” question today and for the traveler, who just wants to focus on the event that they are attending and the people that they are with.

Whether it is someone coming to your arena for a basketball game or they are attending a concert, Disney on Ice or a Hockey championship game,  the smart trip widget provides relevant results for hotels nearby your arena.  And if you serve alcohol, offering a hotel even to local residents can reduce your risk of litigation for drunk driving.

With TripProximity, every trip matters.  A portion of the proceeds from travel bookings made on your site are given back to the philanthropic organization of choice.  This allows you to use the funds generated to benefit your local community.  And if your organization is all about giving, use our TravelingToGive tool and we’ll up the ante even further!
