Ticketfly Inks Deal With Burning Man Festival

SAN FRANCISCO (CelebrityAccess MediaWire) — The Burning Man festival has signed on with Ticketfly in a deal that will see Ticketfly provide ticketing services and related technology for the festival.

According to a blog post by Ticketfly co-founder Andrew Dreskin, the deal has special meaning for the company as they helped set up the first online ticket offering for the festival in 1998.

"Reuniting with Burning Man has special meaning for us at Ticketfly. Ticketfly is home to numerous Burners, including folks who worked on Burning Man’s ticketing in the early days and others who have been part of the on-site team over the past few years. Ticketfly’s mission is to deliver the most innovative technology platform for live events. There is arguably no more special and notable live event in the world than Burning Man," Dreskin wrote.

Burning Man 2014 is set to take place from August 25th through September 1st, 2014 in Nevada's Black Rock Desert. The theme this year is Caravansary, which is a sort of inn with a central courtyard for travelers found in desert regions of Asia or North Africa. – Staff Writers
