On the Event & Venue Marketing Conference’s Adventures In Venueland podcast, Bandsintown’s Fabrice Sergent shares how he and longtime partner Julien Mitelberg’s love of live music led them to found what is now the largest live event discovery and marketing platform in the world.
Bandsintown’s stats are impressive: 90 million registered live music fans, 400 million monthly concert recommendations, and 20 million monthly clicks to buy tickets to shows from 625,000 registered artists. Then there are exclusive partnerships with Spotify, Apple, Shazam, Google and more that spread its listing to hundreds of millions more.
