A new brand for Eyre Peninsula

In 2023 RDAEP completed development of a regional tourism brand; positioning ‘Eyre’ as South Australia’s ‘Wild Side’.  The EYRE brand will be used for tourism marketing of the Eyre Peninsula, in place of the former ‘Seafood Frontier’ brand.  The new brand, in addition to the Eyre Peninsula Destination Marketing Plan, puts Eyre Peninsula in a strong strategic position moving forward.

Are you a tourism business or community organisation that would like to utilise the brand? Access the brand assets on our EP Tourism Network Sharepoint – email  annabelle.hender@rdaep.org.au to gain access through a Microsoft email address.

A DMP’s purpose is to articulate the strategic priorities to develop, promote and manage the tourism sector, in line with the destination needs and aspirations. V2 of the DMP incorporates new strategic insights and community and stakeholder engagement conducted during recent major projects: the Eyre Brand development, and EP Marketing Strategy. An updated Action Plan responds to changes within the operating environment and aims to strengthens the cohesive and strategic position of tourism on the Eyre Peninsula.
