TicketNetwork Direct, a leading American source for the ticket industry’s most comprehensive inventory, today announced it is partnering with over twenty regional city guide websites. TicketNetwork Direct provides these city websites with seamless access from the city guide homepage to tickets for popular local shows, concerts and sporting events.

These “City” websites incorporate TicketNetwork Direct’s offerings alongside their other city specific information that is valuable to visitors and locals alike. TicketNetwork Direct enhances the ticket offerings of city guide websites with the latest information on local and regional shows and events.

“Ticket Network Direct is the most professional online ticket organization we have encountered,” said Michael Castello, President, Castello Cities, Inc. “Our Nashville.com ticket sales have increased four hundred percent since we switched our account to them. Their massive inventory has proved crucial to continuously providing tickets to our destination sites such as PalmSprings.com and LagunaBeach.com as well as our non-city sites such as GolfClub.com and KingTut.com,” added Castello.

“TicketNetwork Direct is one of those rare companies that really does leverage the efficiencies made possible by the internet,” said Sean Miller, CEO, NewYorkCity.com, Inc. “Not only have we found their inventory to be best in class, their proprietary system connects us directly to ticket brokers nationwide. These direct relationships allows NYC.com to live up to our mission to provide the best prices, selection and value to consumers interested in New York City theater, concerts or events. Other major brokers simply cannot compete with TicketNetwork Direct’s offerings,” Miller added.

Boulevards.com currently has thirteen city sites, including SanAntonio.com and Seattle.com, featuring tickets from TicketNetworkDirect. “With our newly co-branded home page, customers experience a cohesive transition from our city guide sites to TicketNetwork Direct’s premium ticket site with the same look and feel of the home page,” said David Contreras, Business Development, Boulevards New Media Inc. “The ticket channel partnership has added visibility to our sites and increased traffic from tourists and residents in the cities where our websites are concentrated,” added Contreras.

“We are pleased that TicketNetworkDirect is the industry standard for powering the ticketing component of several city guide websites. These sites are often the first destination for tourists planning to purchase tickets to events and performances in major markets,” said Don Vaccaro, CEO of TicketNetwork. “Ticket Network Direct equips our partner sites with the advantages of offering the largest selection of tickets at the lowest prices.”
