Guinness Storehouse launches a new smartphone app

Newly developed app will increase visitor experience at Ireland’s number one tourist attraction

Guinness Storehouse, Ireland's number one international visitor attraction, has launched a new mobile phone application to enhance visitors’ Guinness Storehouse experience.

With an existing interactive digital presence on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube, the Guinness Storehouse developed the new app to allow visitors and fans access to their favourite attraction at the touch of their fingertips.

Once downloaded free-of-charge onto any iPhone, iPad, Android, or BlackBerry smartphone, the Guinness Storehouse App can help users map their journey to the building with the help of Google maps, and help them navigate through the building with a digital map. In addition, visitors can purchase tickets at a ten percent discount, and avoid ticket lines upon arrival, as well as check opening times.

"Our new multi-functional app allows us to connect with visitors in a modern and unique way, keeping them up-to-date on all things Guinness Storehouse," says Lisa Fitzsimons, Marketing Manager.

Located in the heart of the historic St. James’s Gate Guinness brewery in Dublin, Guinness Storehouse is home to an old fermentation plant, transformed into a seven-story visitor attraction that tells the history of the birth and the making of the world famous beer.

The App offers fully digitized tours in English, German, Spanish, Italian, and French. These tours feature unique and interactive hot-spots, which showcase specific points of interest on each floor through the use of photos, video, and descriptions. These hot-spots include the Guinness Ingredients exhibit, the Guinness Advertising exhibit and the cooperage exhibit, which showcases the ancient craft of barrel making.
