TikTok and Ticketmaster Expand Partnership Globally
TikTok is taking live events to new global heights through an expanded partnership, allowing users worldwide to discover and purchase tickets without leaving the video app.

The feature lets artists directly promote events and inspire fans to buy through personalized event links and reminders attached to videos.
TikTok’s Ticket Integration Hits 2.5 Billion Views
Over 2.5 billion views have amplified integrated concert details and dates since beta testing as acts like Niall Horan and DJ Snake reaped the rewards.
“By enabling fans to buy tickets directly through TikTok, we’re allowing artists to reach ticket buyers in a whole new way and change the game,” said TikTok’s Michael Kümmerle.
It builds on similar Snap, YouTube and Spotify deals, positioning Ticketmaster as the global middleman between talent and devotees through partnerships with top platforms.
Allowing impulse access to hot tickets while scrolling videos can convert casual viewers into monetizable superfans without pesky external links breaking content momentum.
