AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 17, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- As live events
come back, festivalPass has attracted the interest of influential
investors including entrepreneurs with close to $10B in exits and is also allowing main street
investors to invest alongside them.
"What is really exciting to me about festivalPass is that it
offers access to so much more than music + a subscription model
that is ideally suited for emerging consumers," said Jason Dorsey, Global Millennial and Gen Z expert
and an investor and advisor to festivalPass. festivalPass is an
innovative concept for audiences that love live events including
music, film, sports, theater, food & wine and more.
As the return of live events comes roaring back after a long
pause during the pandemic, concerts, sporting events, movies,
festivals, food & wine events and more are scheduling almost
twice as many events leading into 2022 than pre-pandemic levels of
2019 as the consumer demand to get out and attend events has
exploded.
"Accessing tickets to live events has been a transactional,
nonsocial, inefficient experience for decades," says festivalPass
Founder & CEO Ed Vincent, "Live
events fans can discover and access live events of all types and
sizes through their membership in a community driven, social,
frictionless, single source platform that rewards them for their
loyalty and participation in community."

and Gen Z Expert, Jacob Trouba: NHL
