Ticketmaster is the world's largest seller of event tickets.

It is based in West Hollywood, California, USA, but has operations in many countries around the world including Canada.

Typically, Ticketmasters clients (arenas, stadiums, and theatres) control their events, and Ticketmaster simply acts as an agent, selling the tickets that the clients make available to them.

One of the first ticketing companies to sell tickets on the Internet, Ticketmaster now sells a large percentage of its tickets online, some via phone, and almost none through its once large and important, but now mostly vanished, network of ticket outlets.
Celebrating its 30th anniversary in 2006, Ticketmasters serves more than 9,000 clients worldwide across multiple event categories, providing exclusive ticketing services for hundreds of leading arenas, stadiums, performing arts venues, museums, and theaters. In 2005, the company sold 119 million tickets valued at $6 billion on behalf of its clients.
Chockstone Powers Ticketmasters First Gift Card Program
Chockstone, Inc., provider of the world's most innovative customer loyalty and stored value solutions, announced today that its technology is powering Ticketmaster's first-ever Gift Card program. The new program enables consumers and corporate buyers to purchase gift cards redeemable toward tickets to participating events on sale through Ticketmaster throughout the United States. The Gift Cards will be available for purchase and redemption online at www.ticketmaster.com, by phone through Ticketmaster's Charge-by-Phone network, and at most retail Ticket Centers and select venue box offices.

On April 28, 1997, Ticketmaster sued Microsoft over its Sidewalk service for allegedly deep linking into Ticketmaster's site. The suit was settled after a two-year legal battle in which Ticketmaster claimed that linking to specific pages on an Internet site without permission was an unfair practice.

Ticketmaster has recently devoted significant resources to keeping up with fraud and offers the usual variety of options available for consumer goods. Other technology includes barcoded tickets, which offers the ability for counterfeit ticket to be refused at the point of entrance.

Although Ticketmaster's market share remains over 50% of total sales for tickets in the United States, the ready availability of web-based ticketing software and the decline of its outlet network have combined to keep its overall sales from growing in 2004 and 2005.

Major League Baseball's acquisition of rival Tickets.com in 2005 marks the most significant organization moving away from using Ticketmaster's services.
