TicketWeb Launches New Website With Ticket Giveaway

LONDON, October 30, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

TicketWeb, the UK's most popular ticket website for independent live music, clubs and more, will unveil its brand new look this Thursday 1 November with a massive day of ticket giveaways.

The new look for TicketWeb comes alongside a completely rewired site including features that will ensure that buying tickets, and learning about which events are happening where, is now even quicker and easier. As you'd expect, fans will now be able to share news of the shows they are excited about across all the major social networks, see which gigs their friends are going to and even be able to see where they will be sitting.

The new TicketWeb will be more than just a place to buy tickets. Unrivalled access to exclusive content from artists coupled with credible recommendations from the TicketWeb team and the site's fans mean that it's the place for customers to find their next favourite band, DJ or event.

To celebrate, TicketWeb will be launching the new site with a series of giveaways; giving fans the chance to see their favourite artists live or get their hands on tickets to something completely different. Starting at 10am on Thursday 1 November, every half an hour for ten hours, one of the 'TicketWeb Recommends' events will have a limited number of free tickets available.

Fans can keep an eye out for which events will be available through the website and TicketWeb's social media channels, events range from Jessie Ware in Birmingham, to Jimmy Carr in Brixton and Deerhoof in Leeds.
