Amazon Expands Tickets Biz in UK

Amazon announced that Prime members in the UK now have exclusive access to purchase tickets for luxury Amazon lounges, Premium Seating and Pre-Sales for music concerts and entertainment shows across the UK available on Amazon Tickets.

New Amazon lounges at The O2 and The SSE Arena, Wembley are now open, giving lounge ticket holders access to premium entertainment experiences at the biggest live events including Emeli Sande, Ariana Grande, John Mayer, Little Mix, and many more global stars. In addition, The Killers, Justin Bieber, Kings of Leon, and many more artists are performing at summer festivals where Prime members can access tickets to new premium entertainment experiences. The full line-up can be found at tickets.amazon.co.uk/prime, and more concerts and shows will be added.

Furthermore, Prime members have exclusive access to Amazon Tickets pre-sales to music, theatre and family concerts and shows throughout the UK, enabling members to purchase tickets at least 24 hours before they go on sale to the general public.

Thousands of tickets will be available for pre-sale exclusively for Prime members from this Thursday (30 March) including UK concert tours by ABC, Art Garfunkel, The Darkness, KC & The Sunshine Band and Sparks, with more music and new theatre events to be added regularly. Prime members can visit Amazon Tickets at tickets.amazon.co.uk/prime to find out more about available shows, and sign up to Amazon Tickets weekly emails.

Prime members can also follow Amazon Tickets on Twitter and Facebook to be notified about pre-sale tickets for new events as they are announced.

“Enhanced live entertainment experiences are a fantastic addition to Amazon Prime in the UK, which already offers members great value with fast delivery, streaming of movies, TV and music, and lots more,” said Geraldine Wilson, General Manager of Amazon Tickets. “We’re always looking to add to Amazon Prime, and today we’re delighted to give our members exclusive access to tickets to our new Amazon lounges, premium seating and pre-sales for live music and entertainment experiences across the UK. For shows including Justin Bieber to The Killers to Emeli Sandé to Little Mix, Prime members will now be able to get access to the best seats in the house and our pre-sales, and this is just the start – we’ll be adding new shows every week.”
