Ticketmaster Tops Premier League Table
Ticketmaster Sport has become the number one ticketing provider in the Premier League after winning four new Premier League clients over the course of the 2022/2023 season.
Brentford, Crystal Palace, Everton and Wolves all selected Ticketmaster to become their exclusive ticketing partner over the past season, joining a roster that also includes Arsenal, West Ham United and Tottenham Hotspur and newly-promoted Luton Town.
Ticketmaster Sport will provide leading technology, world-class client service and marketing support, to all of the clients moving into the 2023/2024 season onwards.
Ahead of the new Premier League season, Chris Gratton, Managing Director, Ticketmaster Sport UK, commented, “Ticketmaster continues to offer the best fan experience from sale to seat. Premier League clubs trust us to be their ticketing provider as we ensure the best in technology and finest level of service to them and their fans.”
Ticketmaster has been recognised by the wider industry for its commitment to delivering innovation and investment in technology in recent times, winning ‘Best Operations, Commerce, and Security Technology’ as well as being inducted in the Hall of Fame at the Sports Technology Awards 2023, and recently won ‘Best Use of Technology in Football’ at the Football Business Awards 2023.
Outside of technology, Ticketmaster prides itself on its account management, with a dedicated account manager seen as an extension of the club’s own ticketing teams.

Finally, Ticketmaster’s marketing proposition is a key factor in the clubs’ decisions to partner with the business. Ticketmaster’s marketing reach enables clients to maximise sales across all areas of the club and venue, and they also benefit from programmes such as Ticketmaster’s multi-channel campaign to support women’s sport.
Ticketmaster’s client marketing team includes Lucy Culpin, recently named as a 30 under 30 at the Performance World Marketing Awards 2023. In the words of the judges, Lucy’s work showed “smart strategy and execution with great detail on the tactics used to achieve high performance for clients using different formats. Lucy’s impact in a demanding arena in such a short time is impressive.”
The Premier League returns on Friday 11th August.
