Tickets.com in the News: Tickets.com Signs Deal with Canadian Venue
By Jane Cohen and Bob Grossweiner
Kingston Regional Sports & Entertainment Centre, Ontario's newest entertainment venue, has formed a partnership with Tickets.com to sell tickets through a variety of channels including its website, the telephone, and eventually an on-site ticket office.
With Tickets.com's Tickets@Home feature, Centre patrons will have the ability to buy and print live tickets at their home or office -- a first for a Kingston venue. Tickets.com, which is owned by Major League Baseball, has relationships with RazorGator, among others, and is the second-largest primary ticket seller, according to TicketNews’ exclusive ranking of leading ticket companies.
"Online sales now comprise over 70 percent of the live event industry's total ticket sales," Neil Shorthouse of Arcturus SMG, a venue management company, said in a statement. "Tickets.com is the first ticketing company to deliver tickets to mobile phones with their Tickets@Phone service in the United States via Multimedia Message Service (MMS). Although the technology is not yet available in Canada, the potential capability illustrates one of the many reasons why Tickets.com is a great partner. We believe that the ticket delivery channels and methods offered by Tickets.com will significantly contribute to our ability to provide an exceptional customer experience."
Royal Oak Music Theatre in Michigan took advantage of Tickets.com's mobile ticketing technology, becoming the first venue outside the sports world in the U.S. to offer event tickets to ticket buyers’ mobile phones.

CHICAGO —Tickets.com and Ticketmaster also launched new products at this year’s conference at the Sheraton Hotel in Chicago, the largest since 2001 with 785 attendees and over 100 exhibitor representatives. Making an even larger presence were members of the secondary and ticket broker community including Gary Adler, general counsel for the National Association of Ticket Brokers (NATB).
Tickets.com launched three new software products at this year’s conference including ProVenue, a web-based ticketing platform for box office managers that took two-and-a-half years to develop. Tickets.com is beta-testing the software at six locations.
“It has a common use throughout and is very simplistic throughout,” CEO Larry Witherspoon said. “Where we had training cycles that took weeks, we’re now down to training cycles that take four-to-five hours. People are used to using a web browser, and this software is very intuitive.”
