TICKETMASTER PARTNERS INTERNATIONALLY WITH CANCER RESEARCH UK

Ticketmaster UK, a Live Nation Entertainment company, today announces its partnership with Cancer Research UK, the world’s leading cancer charity dedicated to saving lives through research. Through the partnership Ticketmaster markets have been paired with a local cancer charity, to raise funds across Europe, Australia, and New Zealand.

As the leading ecommerce site in the live entertainment industry, Ticketmaster will offer fans the opportunity to add a charitable donation on tickets bought through its websites. With over one billion annual digital users around the world, this will also give unrivalled visibility to the awareness of the cause.

In 20 markets, Ticketmaster will dedicate employee fundraising activities to this one united cause supporting cancer charities around the world – from bake sales and bucket collections, through to fun runs and quiz nights.

Mark Yovich, President of Ticketmaster International, said:“I am very proud to announce our partnership with Cancer Research UK. Cancer is something that is likely to have touched us all at some stage, our family, friends and even colleagues. By uniting our markets together from across the globe, we can amplify our efforts on an international scale and make a greater contribution to the fight against cancer. Our teams have great affinity with this cause, and I have high hopes for what we can raise together for Cancer Research UK this year, and beyond.”

Caro Evans, Director of Partnerships at Cancer Research UK, said:“Around the world, Ticketmaster employees will be raising money to support their local cancer charities. Cancer Research UK is the UK partner and the money raised here will help fund our life-saving research. Today, on World Cancer Day, it’s exciting to be part of this international fundraising effort. Cancer is a global issue so it’s vital that we work together to beat this disease.”

Today, Cancer Research UK is running their annual World Cancer Daycampaign. Every Ticketmaster International employee has received a Cancer Research UK Unity Band to mark the day, uniting them globally in this cause. In London, Ticketmaster staff have taken to the streets with collection buckets, as well as volunteering in local Cancer Research UK shops. Teams are also coming together to take part in a variety of cancer education and awareness programs throughout the day.

Last November, Ticketmaster UK was the first ever corporate partner to hold a White-Collar Boxing event in aid of Cancer Research UK at the Troxy. A team of brave Ticketmaster souls undertook eight-weeks of gruelling boxing training in the lead up to the big fight, which raised £48,983 for the charity. This is in addition to upsells on the UK site which have raised a total of £350,000.

Kevin Bridges Crowned by Ticketmaster Fans As Uk’s Ticket of the Year 2018

27 November, London: Ticketmaster, the global ticketing marketplace leader that provides 500 million tickets to fans across 29 countries, has polled live entertainment fans globally from its 200 million database to discover the most popular live events of 2018.

Scottish funny-man, Kevin Bridges’ sold-out Brand New tour is the UK’s Ticket of The Year, for his live show at the SSE Hydro, a remarkable feat given that no comedian has ever taken top spot in the UK before. Bridges’ recent tour earned him the ‘Gie It Laldy’ award from the Glasgow arena, recognising his contribution to the live event industry, having sold more tickets to the venue than any other solo artist.

Kevin Bridges said: “Thank you to everybody who came out to see me live this year and a very special thank you to those who went as far as voting for me as their favourite show of the year. It’s been a while since the result of a vote has made me happy. You have restored my faith in democracy. Thank you all and see you another time.”

Girl power comes head to head as P!nk and the Spice Girls are named the UK’s top two most anticipated events for 2019. P!nk’s Beautiful Trauma stadium tour kicks off at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, taking in a total of six shows and ending with a two-night run at London’s iconic Wembley Stadium.

P!nk, said: “What an honor from my beautiful UK fans! A HUGE thank you to everyone that voted for the Beautiful Trauma tour as the Ticketmaster Most Anticipated Event for 2019. It’s been nearly five years since I’ve toured the UK – I can’t wait to get back and party with all of you!”

Right behind is the Spice Girl’s whose tour, announced this month, set Ticketmaster sales records as millions of fans hoped to purchase tickets to the special reunion tour, with well over 700,000 fans in the digital queue at one point. Other hotly anticipated shows for 2019 in the UK include Muse, Fleetwood Mac and Take That.

Looking at the global results, Korean pop music is taking the world by storm as the global pop phenomenon BTS take the top spot from votes around the world. The boy band recently became the first Korean act to surpass one billion streams on Apple Music, and ‘Burn the Stage: The Movie’ opened worldwide to nearly one million pre-sale tickets. The film broke a previous record held by One Direction, with a staggering 1.4M admissions since its release.

The smash hit musical Hamilton cements its place as the nation’s favourite theatre show, the only theatre event to be featured. The musical’s West End production has won seven Olivier awards including Best New Musical, making it a clear favourite for fans.

For the second year in a row, London continues to be the most popular city for live entertainment in the UK, followed by Glasgow and Manchester.

Beyoncé And Jay-Z Complete Incredible OTR II Tour Across Europe And North America

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 9, 2018 /PRNewswire/ —

“No words to describe that show. It was ART x 10th power on steroids with a rocket booster.” – Oprah Winfrey

“On the Run II is what happens when the term blockbuster just doesn’t quite do the spectacle justice.” – Complex

“Pop’s number-one power couple reaffirmed their dominance, and the strength of their bond, at a hits-packed visually stunning show…” – Rolling Stone

“…the biggest couple in pop are glorious and charismatic…” – The Guardian

JAY-Z AND BEYONCÉ completed their critically-acclaimed OTR II European and North American stadium tour in Seattle, Washington last week, after a four-month run of summer and fall shows. The superstars kicked off their international outing on June 6 in Cardiff, UK and performed across 48 shows in 15 cities across the UK and Europe as well as 24 cities in North America. Over 2.1 million fans across the UK, Europe and North America attended the epic run of shows. The full itinerary can be found below.

Shortly before their surprise collaborative album release this summer, EVERYTHING IS LOVE, Mr. and Mrs. Carter began their OTR II tour, showcasing their powerful, emotive stage-presence. The tour featured songs from both artists’ albums throughout the decades including “’03 Bonnie and Clyde,” “Drunk in Love,” “99 Problems,” “Ring the Alarm,” “4:44,” and “APESH*T.”

The tour was presented by Live Nation Global Touring in association with Parkwood Entertainment and Roc Nation. Citi was the official credit card for the OTR II stadium tour.

Beyoncé and JAY-Z continued their incredible philanthropic and civic consciousness efforts during the tour’s run this year. Fans were given the opportunity to register to vote at every U.S. Beyoncé and JAY-Z show during the OTR II tour through the tour’s partnership with HeadCount. Additionally, the BeyGOOD Initiative and The Shawn Carter Foundation revealed the OTRII Scholarship program, awarding over one million dollars in $100,000 scholarships this back-to-school season to one qualified student in each U.S. tour market, beginning in Atlanta. The Boys and Girls Club of America was brought on board to choose the recipients.

The couples’ last tour was in the summer of 2014 when Beyoncé and JAY-Z performed six weeks of sold out stadium dates across North America with their highly anticipated ON THE RUN tour. The outing closed with two international dates in Paris, France that were filmed for an HBO special that received an Emmy nomination.

Royal Arena Copenhagen Welcomes Over 1 Million Fans in Only 20 Months

COPENHAGEN (17 Sept, 2018) – Live Nation-operated Royal Arena in Copenhagen has welcomed its one millionth visitor just 20 months after opening. This landmark milestone was reached during a sold-out Jeff Lynne ELO concert last night.

The 16,500-capacity Arena has had an incredible year with international stars like Depeche Mode, Kendrick Lamar, Sam Smith, Justin Timberlake, U2, Bon Iver and Paul McCartney on the bill. The venue opened with a trilogy of sold-out Metallica shows and events have continued ever since.

Dan Hammer, CEO of Royal Arena, says: “The numbers speak for themselves. However, the credit should go to the extremely talented Danish organisers, who work hard each day to attract musical mega stars and major sporting events to Copenhagen and Royal Arena. Their efforts are world-class.

“The Ice Hockey World Championship in May was a unique, profitable experience for both the city and the arena, but such events do not come to Denmark by themselves. I am sure that the event will serve as a positive example of the fact that it pays to invest resources and finances in attracting experience-driven customers.

“One of the keys to our success is an extremely varied programme with many different music genres, traditional sports, e-sports, stand-up and amazing shows. I am particularly pleased that we have attracted highly coveted Danish names such as Nephew, Anden and Lukas Graham on the programme.”

The Danish business community has also given the arena a warm welcome, with a total of 125 companies currently members of the Audi Club, which is Royal Arena’s commercial network.

“We are very grateful for the support of the business community. With the exception of a brand new exclusive partnership with just nine members, we have no more commercial VIP packages to offer for the next year. We have quite simply sold out,” adds Dan Hammer.
