By Chris Cooke | Published on Tuesday 17 December 2019
DEAG’s ticketing business MyTicket has bought UK-based independent ticketing set-up Gigantic.
The Gigantic company will continue to be run by Mark Gasson and James Woodward under the deal, which – they say – “will provide future investment and stability into the existing Gigantic ticketing operations”.
DEAG is the German live music group that has various operations in the UK, most notably the Kilimanjaro concerts and festivals business.
Confirming the deal, the aforementioned Gasson and Woodward said in a statement: “We are extremely proud that we have established and maintained consistent growth for Gigantic in a competitive marketplace. We now look forward to continuing this growth alongside the committed team at MyTicket”.
Meanwhile a spokesperson for MyTicket said that the DEAG division was “delighted to be working with Mark and James who have built a company with a reputation for providing reliable, customer focused and honest ticketing. Gigantic will remain an independent company and will continue to do great work for promoters, festivals and customers throughout the UK”.
