‘Appy Christmas For Arena Fans

Arena takes next step forward into Internet age.


Arena regulars will be celebrating this Christmas with the launch of a new iPhone app that takes them straight to the front of the queue.

In a UK first, Arena’s new digital passport iPhone application lets clubbers view and buy e-tickets, vouchers and offers on their iPhone and gets rid of the bother of having to leg it to campus to print out your Arena ticket.

Alex George, Arena’s manager told The Tab:  “We know that our customers don’t like queuing, especially in the run up to the festive season. When they’ve bought their ticket, they can just walk straight to the club’s main entrance without queuing, as the voucher is instantly recognised by our EPoS system.”

The free app has already amassed over 5,000 downloads and has plans to launch on Android and Blackberry platforms in the new year.

If you’ve lost a mate or are just really proud that you’re at Cheesy Tuesdays, the app allows you to text to a screen above the dance floor letting you chat to others and see you and your mates in the photo galleries

Plans are also underway to deliver a totally cashless experience, removing the need to queue at box offices and bars, so those panicky moments when checking your bank balance the morning after could be about to get worse.
