Sydney's Royal Easter Show Launches iPhone App



IT CAN be a tough choice: do you go for the Bertie Beetle Bonanza, the Wizz Fizz Super Fizz or even the Hannah Montana Bling Bag?

It is with that dilemma partly in mind that organisers of this year's Sydney Royal Easter Show have launched a new iPhone app.

The tool has been developed to help showgoers navigate the sprawling Sydney Showground, with interactive maps and a geo-location positioning tool.

It also contains details of all the showbags and features itinerary planners and transport information.

It follows the Sydney Royal Easter Show's forays into social media, with a dedicated Facebook page and Twitter feed.

"There's a full listing of what's on and iPhone users can create a list of their favourite events, acts, showbags and carnival rides," Royal Agricultural Society of NSW's Karen Bolinger said.

"The app is fully integrated with our social media channels so app users can share their thoughts with their friends and social media networks."

The tool can be downloaded from the iTunes app store and costs $2.49.

The Sydney Royal Easter Show opens to the public on Thursday and runs until April 27.
