We’re psyched to announce the newest addition to the ‘Fly family! The Social, downtown Orlando’s go-to spot for live music, welcomes both local musicians and national acts in a neighborly setting (love the exposed brick!). The venue cites lower fees and more control over their ticketing as the main reasons for leaving Ticketmaster. Be sure to check out their calendar for upcoming awesomeness, you may need to consider a slight detour during your next trip to Disney World!
Read the official announcement in the Orlando Sentinel below.
The Social to part ways with Ticketmaster, team with Ticketfly
February 3, 2010, 2:53pm
Good news for fans of independent concert promotion: The Social is cutting its ties with Ticketmaster and moving to Ticketfly, a young company working to bring ticketing into the social networking age.
The company, recently profiled in the New York Times, has a client list that includes The Knitting Factory chain, The Double Door in Chicago and other theaters and clubs in markets such as San Francisco and Washington, D.C.
Here’s the announcement from the folks at the Social:
“The Social is leaving Ticketmaster. Although, we experienced a good working relationship with Ticketmaster, we decided it is time for us to move on to a new ticketing company. This transition will help us remain true to both the needs of you, our patrons, as well as of our business.
Moving forward, our new ticketing company is Ticketfly. We are excited about the new partnership as it will save you money with fewer fees and allow us more control over our own ticketing.
As we transition over the coming months, many of our currently announced shows will remain on sale with TicketMaster. However, ALL of our future shows will be sold through Ticketfly.
You can purchase tickets online at Ticketfly.com. As always, thank you for your business.
