A new brand for Eyre Peninsula

RDAEP completed development of a regional tourism brand positioning ‘Eyre’ and South Australia’s ‘Wild Side’.  The EYRE brand is used for tourism marketing of the Eyre Peninsula in place of the former ‘Seafood Frontier’ brand.  The updated brand, in addition to the Eyre Peninsula Destination Marketing Plan, places Eyre Peninsula in a strong strategic position moving forward.

The hard work by all involved was recognised on November 6 2023 where “Eyre – The Wild Side” won gold in the Tourism Marketing & Campaigns category at the South Australian Tourism Awards.  The brand represented Eyre Peninsula and South Australia at the National Tourism Awards in Darwin during March 2024.

Are you a tourism business or community organisation that would like to utilise the brand?  Access to the brand assets are found on RDAEP’s EP Tourism Network SharePoint – email casey.peters@rdaep.org.au to gain access through a Microsoft email address.
