Austin, TX — (June 11, 2024) True Tickets, a digital ticket delivery service known for providing secure, contactless, and user-friendly ticketing solutions, is thrilled to announce its latest partnership with the esteemed Austin Symphony Orchestra. This collaboration marks a significant step in enhancing the ticketing experience for concertgoers, ensuring seamless access to some of the finest musical performances in Austin.
The Austin Symphony Orchestra (ASO), Austin’s oldest performing arts group, has a rich history of providing high-quality musical experiences. With a ticketed concert season running from September through May/June, the ASO offers a diverse array of performances including eight Masterworks Series concert pairs, four Butler Pops Series concerts, and a chamber orchestra series titled ASO ABOUT TOWN. In addition, the ASO's educational initiatives reflect their commitment to community engagement and music education.
Through this partnership, True Tickets will provide the Austin Symphony Orchestra with a cutting-edge digital ticketing solution that offers enhanced security, greater convenience, and an improved overall experience for concert attendees. This collaboration aims to provide the ASO with greater control over each ticket from the time of sale to the moment it is scanned in at the show. This helps reduce scalping and fraud, as well as providing valuable insights into audience engagement.
“We are delighted to collaborate with True Tickets to bring a new level of convenience and security to our patrons,” said Jason Nicholson, Marketing Director of the Austin Symphony Orchestra. “This collaboration is about leveraging technology to enhance the overall concert experience, making it seamless and secure and enabling us to better serve our audience and continue our tradition of providing exceptional musical experiences in Austin.”
