This is eCommerce for Entertainment!

Now in its second decade, TheTicketingBusiness Forum explores the opportunities of open, multi-channel connections to discovery, sales and distribution. The Forum is the essential meeting to learn from our industry’s leaders, discover what’s happening, re-connect with friends and make new connections into the global entertainment, sports, arts and leisure ecosystem.

More than ticketing, we now encompass the entire ticketing ecosystem from marketing and discovery through to pricing, CRM, analytics and loyalty.
