Goldstar Events

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Goldstar Events is a privately-held company in Pasadena, California that sells discounted surplus tickets to leisure activities such as live entertainment, film screenings, sporting events, and spa services. The company serves markets in the metro areas of San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Las Vegas, Chicago, Washington, D.C., New York City, and Boston. It focuses on young people who may not ordinarily choose to go to live events instead of movies, and creates preference profiles for its members based on post-event surveys.[1]

One of the first ticketing companies to successfully sell discounted tickets online, Goldstar’s business is web-based and the company sells only to its members,[2] which number more than 450,000.[3]
