The Devon County Show has rolled out a brand new mobile website designed to be used on all smartphones and small tablet devices.

The new site, available to view at the usual web address -  www.devoncountyshow.co.uk  - helps visitors using handheld devices to get the most out of their day at the Show on May 22-24 at Westpoint, Exeter.

Show Secretary Ollie Allen said demand from users of mobiles and tablets is growing rapidly: “Visits to our website from mobile devices increased by 85 per cent over the last year and numbers are set to increase dramatically again this year.

“We want to make sure our visitors have the best possible experience no matter what type of device they're using, and this website is a huge step towards that goal."

The mobile-specific site provides key visitor information about what will be the 119th Devon County Show, including a list of main attractions, a plan-your-day feature, directions and a link to buy tickets.

Ollie added: “Our new mobile site means that users will be able to reach our content faster with a refreshed design that automatically adapts to their device. But if they want more detail, they will be taken through to our main website which is, as always, packed with information, stories and pictures.”
