Los Angeles, CA - 06/08/09 - Live Nation announced today that it is expanding its “No Service Fee” program to every single available ticket in each of its amphitheaters this Wednesday, June 10th, for 24 hours only, exclusively at LiveNation.com.
Last week’s debut of “No Service Fee Wednesday” generated a sales spike 500% higher than the average number of tickets sold on a typical Wednesday, as music fans everywhere took advantage of Live Nation’s no service fee offer, which helped more concertgoers get to more shows for less money.
“Music fans, we heard you loud and clear,” said Michael Rapino, President and Chief Executive Officer of Live Nation. “So we have made ‘No Service Fee Wednesday’ even bigger and better by making even more tickets more affordable. Our job is to get as many fans as possible to the show to see their favorite artists. We’re helping to do that by dropping the service fee on all tickets in our amphitheaters this Wednesday only at LiveNation.com.”
Tickets for this week’s installment of “No Service Fee Wednesday” go on sale at 12:01 a.m. local time on June 10, 2009 at www.LiveNation.com. While the service fee has been dropped, parking and certain venue fees and taxes still apply.
Tickets without the service fee are available only at Live Nation amphitheaters in the U.S. and Canada for concerts locally including:
Aerosmith
Blazed & Confused Tour featuring Snoop Dogg & Slightly Stoopid
Crue Fest 2

New Kids on the Block

This offer is available only through amphitheaters owned, operated and ticketed by Live Nation.
