SeatGeek believes live events are powerful experiences that unite humans. With our technological savvy and fan-first attitude we’re simplifying and modernizing the ticketing industry.

Sales is a huge part of our strategy. Every large sports and entertainment brand in the US should care about ticketing; it is a large revenue driver and a way to build fandom. We want to compete against established competitors for every one of their marquee contracts and bring our fan-friendly, tech-forward approach to as many venues as possible.
