NEW YORK, July 25, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- StubHub, the world's leading marketplace to buy and sell tickets to any live event, today announced a partnership with San Francisco's premiere festival, Outside Lands.

In its 16th year, Outside Lands is often a top-10 selling U.S. festival on StubHub, drawing a global crowd for its focus on the finest food, wine, beer, art and music, which includes The Killers, Sabrina Carpenter, Sturgill Simpson and Post Malone, performing a special concert set, as headliners this year.

"StubHub's vision to provide event organizers an additional ticket distribution channel to reach global audiences is one that speaks directly to our team. By exercising our freedom to reach fans through multiple ticketing providers, we're gaining a more diverse audience and increasing our access to data, to support many revenue streams, which I know StubHub is well positioned to do."

StubHub has increased its focus on supporting the live event industry by providing content rights holders and event producers with a new distribution channel, while simultaneously providing buyers with a wider selection of tickets. As a global platform, servicing customers in 195 countries, in 33 languages and 48 currencies, and nearly 25 years in the business, StubHub has a strong opportunity to drive more reach for event producers and more access for buyers.

"We are grateful for the opportunity to once again collaborate with Rich and the Outside Lands team to distribute secondary tickets," said Cris Miller, Chief Business Officer for StubHub. "Outside Lands is one of our most in-demand festivals each year and we're confident we can only further drive more growth for the festival. Working together, we can reach their desired audiences and create a seamless experience to fulfill the tickets, all while giving StubHub's buyers from over 195 countries and territories access to even more ticket selection."
