LOS ANGELES, CA -- 11/03/09 --
TicketOS, the worldwide leader in on-demand
sports and event ticket management software and services, announced today
the creation of its monthly Corporate Ticket Index(TM). The index will
track key metrics regarding corporate ticket use.
The first index shows that utilization of corporate-owned inventory across
all North American venues was 69% for October, which is down from 71% in
September, but up 31% from October 2008. Club and stadium seating use
averaged 73% while suite seats averaged 67% for October. The NFL leads all
major leagues with the highest corporate ticket utilization.
Baseball playoffs were extremely popular this October as evidence by Yankee
Stadium, Dodger Stadium, Fenway Park, and Citizens Bank Park showing up in
the top 8 venues by volume.
"It's fantastic to see a large increase in corporate ticket utilization
year over year," said John Wallace, General Manager of TicketOS. "We view
this as a positive sign that corporations are entertaining more today
versus a year ago and the data supports the trend that spending will
continue into 2010."
According to Wallace, the following venues showed above average
corporate-owned ticket volumes and utilization rates:
