Gilt City Announces Partnership with AEG to Sell Exclusive VIP Packages to Members Nationally

"Gilt City is thrilled to offer our members curated VIP packages to many of the musical events AEG produces," says Zach Overton, Senior Director of National Ticketing for Gilt City. "Kicking it off with the unique experience of Coachella is a perfect match for Gilt City's goal to deliver insider access to some of the most coveted and exclusive events every day."

"Gilt City is an ideal digital partner for many of the highly anticipated AEG events," says Todd Goldstein, President of AEG Global Partnerships. "AEG's premier entertainment assets are perfect for the luxury-minded members on Gilt City and we're excited to give VIP access through their site to fans nationwide."

To launch the AEG partnership, Gilt City will offer members a choice of two exclusive VIP packages to the Coachella Valley Music & Arts Festival including a VIP ticket to Coachella, one ticket to a private off-site event, a digital sampler of featured Coachella artists provided by Universal Music Group, and the option of a luxury shuttle service back from the Festival for three days, provided by Limos.com.

Gilt City's partnership with AEG best showcases Gilt City's growing ticketing and entertainment platform. Gilt City has past partnered with Paramount Pictures offering exclusive pre-screenings of the film, "No Strings Attached," offered members pre-sale access to tickets to Florence + the Machine's 13-city U.S. tour, VIP tickets to a New York Rangers game, and many more.
