Eventbrite Powers the Independents With Next-Generation Music SolutionSan Francisco, CA, Nov. 08, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Eventbrite (NYSE: EB), a global ticketing and event technology platform, today announced Eventbrite Music, the company’s new solution created specifically for independent music venues, promoters, and festivals to power their ticketing, streamline their business operations, and distribute their tickets to a massive audience.
Built atop the Eventbrite platform, Eventbrite Music brings together the world-class expertise and functionality of multiple platforms following the acquisitions of Ticketfly and ticketscript last year. The new solution which is live today in North America and Australia, leverages the strength and reliability of a platform that powered 3 million events around the world in 2017 while delivering specifically upon the nuanced needs of live music venues and promoters. Eventbrite Music is backed by a dedicated team of the industry’s top music experts, who together with promoters, festivals, and more than 1,000 venues, make up a tight-knit independent live music community. “Over the years the core needs of a concert promoer haven’t changed: They need to reduce friction in their day-to-day operations, promote profitable shows, sometimes hundreds of them a year, and deliver a great experience for artists and fans,” said Andrew Dreskin, President of Eventbrite’s music division. “The amount of thought and work we’ve put into addressing these needs has been a herculean effort. I’ve been doing this a long time and I can say with conviction that Eventbrite Music is the best piece of ticketing software that I’ve ever worked on. We’re excited to put this solution into the hands of independent promoters around the world and help to continue to fuel a thriving independent music ecosystem.” Purpose-built for music venues, promoters and festivals, the benefits of Eventbrite Music include:
"Marketing and ticketing are synonymous in my mind and Eventbrite Music is a huge help for independent venues like us,” said Jordan Olels, Marketing and Ticketing Manager for Neumos and Capitol Hill Block Party. “Not only does it save time in the set up of our ticketing but we can easily see which distribution channels are moving tickets, whether it’s Facebook, Spotify, Songkick, or something else. We’ve definitely seen an uptick in ticket sales since switching to Eventbrite.” To learn more about Eventbrite Music, visit https://www.eventbrite.com/l/music/. About Eventbrite [email protected] |
