Website development

A website for your museum

Exhibitions, visitor information and ticket sales with a time slot — and at the entrance you scan exactly what your site sold.

In short

What goes into a museum website?

A museum website through MijnEvent holds your current and upcoming exhibitions with an archive of earlier ones, practical visitor information, and ticket sales where visitors pick a date and a time slot so you spread the crowd across the day. Alongside that a season pass or museum membership people buy and renew themselves, educational programmes for schools, and a request form for group bookings. At the entrance you scan tickets with the check-in app; the season pass sits as a wallet pass on the phone. A basic website starts at €450 one-off plus €49 per month. Venue hire for meetings can be added using the same availability calendar.

What runs inside it

The parts that make your site work

These modules run straight inside your website. Your visitor notices nothing; they simply stay on your site.

On site

And then everyone turns up

At the entrance you scan the QR on the ticket or season pass. Because visitors chose a time slot in advance, you know what the day looks like before it starts — and in management you see how visitors actually spread across it. The season pass sits as a wallet pass on the phone, so nobody loses it.

Pricing

What it costs

A basic website starts at €450 one-off plus €49 per month for hosting, maintenance and support. Without an upfront investment you pay €119 per month over a 36-month term. Larger projects have their own rate; you always get a fixed price in advance.

Frequently asked questions

What organisations like yours ask

Can visitors pick a time slot?

Yes. You set how many visitors you can take per part of the day or per hour, and visitors choose a slot when buying. That spreads the crowd and gives you a view of the day in advance.

How does the season pass work?

Like a membership: visitors buy it online, get a wallet pass on their phone and renew it themselves. At the entrance you scan that pass. Renewal can run automatically by direct debit, so you do not have to chase it.

Can schools book a programme through the site?

Yes. You put the educational programmes online per school level, with the available dates. A school requests through the form and you confirm — or you let them book and pay directly, whichever suits.

We also hire out rooms. Can that go on the same site?

Yes, with the rentals module. Rooms go online with an availability calendar; applicants book themselves or send a quote request. That runs in the same administration as your ticketing.

Do our earlier exhibitions stay findable?

Yes, and deliberately so: an archive of earlier exhibitions is one of the strongest parts of a museum site. Those pages bring visitors in through Google and show what you have to offer.

Is the site accessible to visitors with a disability?

Every site is delivered at WCAG 2.2 AA. For museums with a public role that is often a legal requirement too. It means sufficient contrast, operable by keyboard alone, and a ticket form a screen reader can handle.
