One digital interface for the city centre

City centre information is often scattered across websites, social media and event pages. Places brings it together in one shared map and calendar, then helps distribute it through mobile-friendly experiences, automatic translation, search engines, AI assistants and other digital channels.

Sverre Knutsen, Managing Director of Arendal By

Places.nu has simply solved a challenge we’ve had in Arendal for many years: the need for an up-to-date event calendar combined with a good, clear map. What matters most is how easy the platform is to use. That means organisers actually use it, and events end up on one shared platform that benefits the whole city.
