Ticketek
is an Australian event ticketing company. Formed
in 1979, the company is owned by PBL Media, and
operates ticketing operations for entertainment
and sporting events in Australia, Argentina and
New Zealand.
Ticketek
was part of PBL's Consolidated Press Holdings
until it was transferred to PBL's internet arm,
ecorp, in 1999, two years after introducing online
ticketing in Australia. Ticketek was a key factor
in that company's financial survival during a
two-year disastrous foray on the public stock
exchange, when the company was re-privatised by
PBL.
In
November 2000, Ticketek formed a Hong Kong company
called Ticketek Hong Kong in a joint venture with
the Hong Kong Ticketing Alliance. In early 2003,
ecorp sold its 50% stake in the Hong Kong operation
to HKTA, with the venture being renamed Hong Kong
Ticketing Limited.
Ticketek
sells around 10 million tickets annually. The company
has ticketing contracts with certain venues such as
the Sydney Cricket Ground, and formerly the Sydney
Entertainment Centre. It was the provider of ticketing
services for the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney.
