2020 saw the completion of the first significant renovation to Williams-Brice Stadium in almost 25 years. Ticketmaster served as a key partner in providing technology and innovation throughout the stadium renovation and will continue to serve the Athletics Department in this role. The upgrades will allow for a more fan-friendly experience, including enhancing concourse and concessions traffic flow, as well as increased access to air-conditioned seating and more restroom facilities. As part of the University’s innovation partnership with Ticketmaster, a significant investment was made in leveraging Ticketmaster’s leading venue access control technology for ticket scanning and Club Entry management.
Ticketmaster has been a great partner to us,” said Ray Tanner, Athletic Director for the University of South Carolina. “As we continuously look to improve and enhance Williams-Brice Stadium, and all of our Athletic facilities, we are thrilled to extend our relationship.”
