Vivid Seats and Duke Athletics Agree to Partnership
-- Press Release --
CHICAGO (Aug. 26, 2016) - Vivid Seats is proud to announce a new partnership with premier Atlantic Coast Conference member, the Duke Blue Devils. In conjunction with the agreement, Vivid Seats will serve as an Official Partner of Duke Athletics. Duke is the third ACC member institution to reach an agreement with Vivid Seats, joining the Louisville Cardinals and Wake Forest Demon Deacons.
Through this agreement with Vivid Seats, Duke fans can find tickets to concerts, shows, sports and sold out events nationwide. In the event that road tickets are unavailable through Duke or the host institution, Vivid Seats could provide ticket options and enhanced service when Blue Devil fans are traveling to support their favorite Duke teams outside of Durham.
“Duke fans are incredibly passionate about supporting their teams at home and on the road, and we are excited about this new partnership with Vivid Seats as we continually strive to enhance the overall fan experience in cooperation with Duke Athletics,” said Patrick Streko, General Manager for Blue Devil IMG Sports Marketing, the multimedia rights holder for Duke Athletics.
Duke football is coming off an eight-win campaign that was capped off by a thrilling overtime victory over Indiana in the New Era Pinstripe Bowl at Yankee Stadium. This season, the squad will be hitting the road for a number of notable away contests versus the likes of Northwestern, Notre Dame, Louisville, Georgia Tech, Pittsburgh, and Miami, with the ACC Championship Game in Charlotte’s Bank of America Stadium on Dec. 3.
With five national titles already under its belt, Duke men’s basketball will look to add another under legendary head coach Mike Krzyzewski. The 2016-17 season is primed to be an exciting one, especially for the already announced non-conference portion of the schedule, which includes matchups against Kansas in the State Farm Champions Classic, Penn State in the Basketball Hall of Fame Tip-Off, Michigan State in the ACC/Big Ten Challenge, and Florida in the Jimmy V Classic.
“Vivid Seats is excited to be an Official Partner of Duke University, a legendary brand that has long resonated across the landscape of college athletics,” said A.J.
