Coachella expands ticketing partnership with Festicket

Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival has confirmed Festicket as its exclusive UK & Europe ticket partner. 

An official press release stated that “Festicket will continue to provide Coachella’s international booking services in nine languages, accepting more than forty currencies and sixteen local payment methods, alongside promoting a wide range of ticket options and travel and accommodation packages.”

During the advance sale for the 2022 edition of Coachella – which will take place April 15-17, (Weekend 1) and 22-24 (Weekend 2) – Festicket expanded Coachella’s sales into 54 countries outside North America.

The press release claimed that, since 2019, Coachella organisers, Goldenvoice, and Festicket have “attracted over 3.2 million fans to the festival’s pages whilst selling tickets and travel packages to fans from 63 different countries.” 

Speaking about the partnership, Zack Sabban, CEO & co-founder at Festicket, said: “Coachella has a reputation around the world like no other festival. We got into the events game because of festivals like Coachella and it’s an honor to now be working alongside the team at Goldenvoice. The fact that Festicket fans from fifty four countries have already bought tickets for 2022 is such a positive sign. Despite all the doom and gloom the pandemic has brought, music lovers are ready to get back to the experiences they live for and are ready to support the events they love, now - when it counts - even if the events aren’t for another 9 months. That is brilliant to see. Everybody is well aware of the struggles the events and ticketing industries have suffered during the pandemic but having used this time to fasttrack integrations with our new Event Genius offering, we really feel we’re ready to make even more strides into the United States in 2021 and beyond.”
