viagogo is just the ticket for Collingwood
viagogo, the world’s largest ticket marketplace, has marked its launch in Australia this week by unveiling a three year deal to become the official ticket marketplace of Collingwood Football Club.
viagogo has operations in nearly 50 countries and provides a secure platform on which people can buy and sell tickets to live events safely, securely and with the guarantee that buyers will receive the tickets they bought in time for the event and sellers will get paid. Collingwood joins nearly a hundred of the biggest names in sports and entertainment that already work with viagogo across the world, including Chelsea FC, FC Bayern Munich, the French Open and several European music festivals.
Collingwood CEO Gary Pert said: “Our members and fans are passionate supporters of live sport and entertainment, and we are delighted to be partnering with viagogo to offer them a gateway to the world’s greatest events. Partnering with viagogo ensures we can assist in providing the highest levels of customer protection and service. The scope of this partnership and the benefits we can bring to our supporters and members is only going to get bigger and bigger in the years to come.”
viagogo CEO Eric Baker said: “Since we founded the business in 2006, viagogo has revolutionised the way people buy and sell tickets to sports and entertainment events across the globe. We are proud to be launching our service in Australia following great success in nearly 50 other countries around the world. Gone are the days of missing out on tickets to your favourite events, or having to take your chances buying tickets on auction sites or from people lurking around outside a venue. Our partnership with Collingwood FC means that no supporter ever has to take a risk buying a ticket without a guarantee.”
