LONDON, December 10/PRNewswire/ -- Ticketmaster, a Ticketmaster Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ:TKTM) company,
is pleased to announce that as part of their evolving relationship with the
Society of London Theatre (SOLT), the world-famous tkts booth in Leicester
Square and the new tkts booth at Brent Cross Shopping Centre are now also
Ticketmaster Ticket Centres.
The partnership means that in addition to the discounted
late-availability theatre tickets already offered, tkts will now also be
selling Ticketmaster's full range of theatre, sport, family attractions and
music events via the unique e-ticket centre product. With the use of
web-based technology, tkts has real-time access to Ticketmaster inventory,
and can sell direct to consumers, in most cases printing tickets for the
customer to take away with them.
In time for Christmas, London tkts booth customers will now be
able to buy tickets for the London's Winter Ice Rinks at locations such as
Somerset House, Hampton Court and the Natural History Museum. Customers will
also have access to the full range of upcoming Christmas pantomimes and other
festive family events.
Chris Edmonds, Managing Director, Ticketmaster UK, said: "As
part of our continuing partnership with the Society of London Theatre and
tkts, we are delighted that customers will now be able to buy tickets for
Ticketmaster's wide range of live entertainment events as well as tkts'
already existing discount theatre tickets."
Paul James, Commercial Manager, The Society of London Theatre
said: "This is a great development for tkts customers who come to Leicester
Square from all over the world; they can now buy not just bargain theatre
tickets, but a whole range of tickets to exciting events and attractions via
the Ticketmaster Ticket Centre system."
