What are people looking for at TicketCity?

by admin on March 6, 2009

What are people looking for at TicketCity?

There are a ton of events going on right now, but what are the top events globally?  What are the sports, concerts and theater that everyone wants to see?  Below is a quick look at some of the most searched terms/events/categories on the TicketCity.com website.

TOP TICKET SEARCHES:
* Concert Tickets – Tons & tons & tons of people are looking for tickets to their favorite artist or performer.  Our main Concert Tickets page is one of the highest traffic pages on our website.  Because of that we are going to be releasing some new features soon to make it easier to find information on your favorite concert performer.  The most searched genre on our concert tickets page is “Rock music”, followed closely by “Country music”.  A few of the top performers right now are: AC/DC, Britney Spears, Bruce Springsteen, Jonas Brothers, Leonard Cohen, Sugarland, Taylor Swift & the shows at the Houston Rodeo.  Others that are starting to draw more traffic are: Michael Jackson and U2.  U2 has announced they will be touring the globe in Fall.  The one-time “King of Pop” is playing a series of shows in London; there are rumors about him setting up a series of shows in the United States.

* Sports Tickets – The NFL & College Football are the two most popular sporting events on our website.  Both are out-of-season right now but still drawing large traffic numbers as people search for ticket deals for the 2009 football season.  Dallas Cowboys tickets has been a particularly hot search term, mostly due to the fact that the Cowboys are moving into a new stadium for the upcoming season.  Fans of the Cowboys want to see the new “Jerry World” and are trying to find the best deals on tickets.
The largest traffic these days is being split between College Basketball (a speciality of TicketCity) and NBA Tickets.  In the college segment most people are searching for conference tournament tickets; the most demand is for Big 12 Tournament Tickets & Big East Tournament Tickets, although demand for the ACC Tournament is solid as well.  The NCAA Tournament regional sites are just now starting to draw some interest, although the real buying will not pickup until the NCAA Tournament teams are announced.
On-site demand for NBA tickets is all about the top teams, the most searched terms are Cavs, Celtics, Lakers & Spurs.
The Major League Baseball season is starting in a few weeks, so the traffic is building for that.  Most people searching for baseball are either looking for World Baseball Classic tickets or for New York Yankees tickets.  Other popular search terms are Cubs, Dodgers, Mets and Red Sox.
The demand for NHL tickets is light compared to the other categories, but there are still quite a few queries for the top teams.  Earlier this year, NHL searches were at an all-time for the NHL Winter Classic played at Wrigley Field in Chicago.
Spring is not just about team sports, it is also major sporting events.  The two biggest events in that spectrum are both drawing a ton of traffic right now; both The Masters and the Kentucky Derby are two of the most searched terms on the site.  Demand for Masters has been increasing steadily since Tiger Woods returned to the course in late February.

* Theater Tickets - Across the board the demand (and searches) for Broadway Tickets have been down slightly.  But there are still many individual shows that are getting a ton of traffic.  Leading that group is Wicked.  Demand for Wicked tickets has been strong for well over a year and it remains one of the top draws on Broadway.  Right behind Wicked right now in searches is Shrek the Musical.  The other, non-Broadway, theater show that has been burning up the charts is Flight of the Conchords.  Search traffic and demand for this hit show has been unexpectedly huge.

So there is a quick look at what is hot at TicketCity right now.  If you are looking for tickets for one of these shows, or any other, please call 1.800.880.8886 to speak with one of our talented Sales Associates.  Or you buy online at TicketCity.com.

Michael Jackson Comeback Concert??

by admin on March 6, 2009

Michael Jackson Comeback Concert??

Confidential sources confirmed that Michael Jackson would be scheduling a series of live performances, possibly in 2009.  The announcement of when the shows will take place will be announced within a week, sources say.  The exact locations of the shows and the time that the show will carry on, are not yet known, but reports have stated that they have discussed a 30-show run in Vegas or possibly London.

There have been talks of his comeback tour for quite some time, ever with speculations that he and The Jackson Five would perform a reunion tour, which ended up being a rumor.  Apparently, a equity group purchased the loan on Jackson’s Neverland Rand in California last year.  It was speculated the they company was looking at various ways that Jackson could repay the loan, one of which being several live performances. 

We won’t know for sure if the tour will be in sight for a while, but we will keep you updated on all that we know.  But if it does manifest sometime this year, you know it will be a hot show!  Can’t wait to see what unfolds!

“Lightweight Lightening” at Erwin Center April 4th in Austin, Texas

by admin on March 6, 2009

“Lightweight Lightening” at Erwin Center April 4th in Austin, Texas

Golden Boy Promotions present “Lightweight Lightening,” a lightweight Pay-Per-View event that will feature eight 135-pound men in four match-ups that will most likely re-arrange the standings in this highly competitive division of boxing, all in one night!

The main event will feature the revered, Venezuelan born,  undefeated Edwin Valers (24-0, 24KOs)  and the hard-hitting Columbian, Antonio Pitalua (46-3, 40 KOs) for 12-round bout for the WBC Interim World Lightweight crown.

But that’s not all there is to talk about.  In fact there are going to be 3 other riveting fights that will preface this title fight.  One of the c0-featured fights that will happen prior top this main event, will be a 10-round square-off between a former two-time Cuban-born World Champion and Olympic medalist, Joel Casamayor (36-4-1, 22 KOs) against the California native and former World Champion, Julio Diaz (36-4, 26 KOs).  As their records show, we can anticipate this to be one exciting fight.

Another of the co-featured fights showcases Austin’s own Jesus Chavez (44-4, 30 KOs), a former Lightweight World Champion who is hoping to capture win when he faces Australian Michael Katsidis (24-2, 20 KOs) who likes to entertain fans with his Arturo Gatti-like performances that have become a sort of trademark for him.

The last fight (or actually the first) to be featured in “Lightweight Lightening” will be the entertaining Argentinean Jorge Barrios (47-4-1, 34 KOs) against another Texas fighter and former World Champion, Carlos Hernandez (43-7-1, 24 KOs), in another 10-round match-up.

President of Golden Boy Promotions, Oscar de la Hoya, said “We have never done something like this before, pitting eight of the world’s best lightweights agains each other on one card.” This statement in itself should prove this fight to be, not only exciting and entertaining, but history in the making. 

If you haven’t gotten your tickets to the Saturday, April 4th event, call us at 1-800-SOLD OUT or visit our website, TicketCity.com, to see all the tickets that we have just waiting for you!  So don’t miss your chance to see this performance live!  If you are going to have to pay to see this performance no matter how you slice it, make sure you are ring-side for this historic and riveting event!

Leonard Cohen in Austin

Leonard Cohen in Austin

After a 15 year hiatus, Leonard Cohen is taking the US Stage again.  This go-round he is making his way to the Michael and Susan Dell Hall in Austin, Texas. 

Tickets went on sale this morning and sold out in about 10 minutes.  Websites were running slow and not letting people empty their shopping carts, while people were getting very aggravated at the ticket window when no tickets were available at the box office. 

If you were one of the few to get tickets today, feel grateful.  Very Grateful!! But if you were one of the many who were unable to obtain this hot, sold-out event, no need to fret.  TicketCity.com was able to get a few tickets for this show, so you might be in luck.  If you call us at 1-800-SOLD OUT or visit TicketCity you might be able to secure the tickets that you have been trying to get.  But don’t waste time, because these tickets will go as fast as they did from the box office!  Don’t waste another minute, and get your tickets to Leonard Cohen TODAY!!!
