Promotors Cutting Prices On Concert Tickets


Recommended Posts

ticket.jpgLast week, Clear Channel Music announced some steps aimed at getting more people into the cheap seats. For certain shows at 33 of the amphitheaters it controls, lawn tickets will cost $20, about half to two-thirds of the prices in the past. For other shows it is introducing a $39 "grass pass" that includes parking and a $10 food and beverage voucher. It has also struck some vending deals with upscale food suppliers including Au Bon Pain, Ben & Jerry's and even Legal Sea Foods. "Our economic driver has always been our event revenue," Mr. Rapino said, referring to concessions and other so-called ancillaries.

That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention.

Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
