Reigning Scottish Premier League champions Celtic FC has announced a sponsorship with leading secondary ticketing company Seatexchange.com.
Celtic FC is the first Champions League club to sign with Seatexchange.com and the Chicago-based company becomes an Official Partner of the Club for the next three years.
Seat Exchange is an online marketplace in which ticket holders can easily buy and sell tickets to concerts, theatre, sports and many other entertainment venues – even sold out events. Seatexchange.com provides safe and secure one-stop ticket shopping and works with teams and event owners to make events accessible for all fans.
This partnership will provide Seat Exchange with Celtic FC inventory to promote its brand to a worldwide audience. It will also provide Celtic FC fans with increased access to tickets for all the hottest events in Scotland, the UK and Europe, including all the biggest names playing at The SECC, The Carling Academy, Barrowlands, The Braehead Arena, Murrayfield, and many more.
“We are delighted to welcome Celtic FC on board to our growing portfolio of major European sports clubs and as our first in Scotland. The secondary market is fast becoming one of the key routes to securing the toughest tickets and we are delighted to be working with such a famous and well supported club to give fans access to concerts, theatre and sports and other events,” said Dave Gorman, CEO of Seat Exchange.
“Celtic FC has a fantastic history of success and is rightly recognised as one of the world’s leading clubs – everyone at Seat Exchange is delighted to be partnering with them.”
Celtic Chief Executive Peter Lawwell added “We are delighted to announce this new association with Seat Exchange. We are pleased to add an organisation of their stature to our group of official partners.”
Celtic FC is the first Seat Exchange partner in Scotland, and join Premier League club Aston Villa FC, and Guinness Premiership teams Bath Rugby and Bristol Rugby in signing exclusive sponsorship agreements for the sector.
Seat Exchange currently has a number of partners in the United States, including the PAC-10 collegiate athletic conference, the ACC collegiate conference, University of Georgia, Georgia Tech University, Indiana University, Syracuse University, Vanderbilt University, University of Houston, University of Minnesota, University of Missouri, University of Colorado, Virginia Tech, University of Memphis and the Minnesota Twins Radio Network.
