Carters Steam Fair
The client
Carters Steam Fair is a traditional English funfair with rides dating from the 1890s to the 1960s. They are a unique piece of living history.
One of the features which makes Carters Steam Fair unique is the decoration of its engines, rides and transport. Joby Carter is a leading expert on the traditional craft of signwriting and fairground art and hosts training courses online and at the Carters Yard throughout the year.
Kind words
Right from the start Kabo were fantastic – they asked all the right questions about our customer and what the website needed to do, and they kept a focus on that throughout the project, helping us refine our ideas into a well laid out, conversion friendly website.
What has been truly impressive though is the focus and attention on every single detail from hosting and technical things in the background to design and customer journey– you definitely feel like you are in safe hands working with Kabo. Absolutely recommend them for a website project.”

The solution
From the launch of their first WordPress website, to implementing ecommerce, navigating the technical challenges of an events business during covid, through to today we’ve loved working with their wonderful team and visually stunning content.
We’re super proud to see them thriving the other side of the covid challenge, with their online and in-person courses, merchandise and token sales all proving to be long term successes.
New website
Ecommerce
The new ecommerce solution allowed them to add merchandise and artwork to the website for their extensive fan base to purchase.
Courses
Working quickly to support the business, we helped to implement ticket sales through the website which integrated with Zoom to hold the events. Like many of our clients during the early days of covid they innovated with incredible speed, and we sped along with them to implement the technical solutions they needed.
