StubHub Inks O2 Arena Ticketing Deal
June 3, 2013
StubHub has partnered with The O2 Arena as their official ticket re-sale marketplace for all events.
The O2’s primary ticketing platform, clinic AXS.com, will integrate with StubHub to ensure that when fans buy through StubHub, the original ticket will be validated, cancelled and a new ticket and barcode in the buyer’s name will be issued.
The O2 partnership follows the recent retirement of the eBay tickets category in the UK and migration to StubHub.
Rebecca Kane, general manager of The O2, commented on the deal: “The O2 is the most popular venue in the world and tickets for our events often sell out extremely quickly. To ensure that as many people as possible can come to events here we wanted to partner with a trusted and secure ticket resale provider.
“By partnering with StubHub we are working with a resale marketplace that has a proven pedigree in serving fans and providing an innovative service for our customers. Integrating our own ticketing platform means that fans can buy in confidence and enjoy the best in live entertainment at The O2.”
