LUX is a cultural centre in Nijmegen, the Netherlands, offering a wide variety of events ranging from international cinema, theatre and debate to dance and music.

In renewing their website LUX wanted to

enable LUX employees to easily enter event data, including dates, times, posters and trailers
enable visitors to easily find out what is going on
offer an opportunity for interaction and community building

The site makes heavy use of CCK, Views and a custom built playdates module, offering various ways of viewing the programme.

Movies offer integration with blip.tv trailers and a ticket reservation system.

The site has a strong visual presence, with a theme varying slightly by event type.

The development of this site was a combined effort of Bèr Kessels, Jeroen Coumans and Gaele Strootman.
