Real Madrid sells out in 1 Day

“We needed a ticketing solution that could handle the volume of interest this game generated.  The match was held at Shamrock Rovers F.C., in Tallaght in Dublin – a 3,000-seat venue that was transformed to host 11,000 fans. The game itself could have sold 5 times over with the huge customer demand. We needed a solution that could handle that kind of demand – and Ticketsolve more than delivered for us.”

Maeve Buckley , Managing Director Platinum One.

Background: Platinum One and Irish Events company required a ticketing solutions provider to supply ticketing for the pre-season friendly game between Real Madrid C.F. & Shamrock Rovers F. C. at Rovers grounds in Tallaght.  Ronaldo and Kaka the previous two recipients of the FIFA World Player of the Year award, will lead the full squad under new first team coach, Manuel Pellegrini.  . 

Issue: Platinum One required a ticketing solution which afforded them flexibility. The ticketing platform required a seamless buying experience while maintaining the Platinum One brand experience throughout the purchasing experience. Due to the high profile nature of the event the platform desired must be able to deal with large amounts of traffic in a very short time period.

Solution and Results: Platinum One’s decision to select Ticketsolve as its ticketing solution came after weeks of reviewing the Ticketsolve platform. Ticketsolve challenges the ticketing incumbent services regarding superior design and commercial models which Platinum One embraced. Ticketsolve complemented the core offering with a suite of added value services i.e. access control, fulfillment/call center. Tickets for this event sold out in a matter of hours.
