The Singapore Tourism Board has launched the
nation's first-ever event concierge to raise the awareness and
visibility of arts and entertainment events in Singapore.
TicketCube is the only platform in Singapore
that aggregates four local ticketing service providers – ApeSnap,
Gatecrash, SISTIC and TicketBooth - thus giving consumers access
to a multitude of shows under one roof.
To assist customers with their selection,
specially trained concierge officers are on hand to offer
information and recommendations on the various arts and
entertainment shows in the market.
“Our arts and entertainment landscape has grown
exponentially over the last few years. Today, both visitors and
Singaporeans are spoiled for choice with the breadth and depth of
arts and entertainment offerings available; ranging from homegrown
theatre acts and blockbuster musicals to indie music showcases to
visual arts exhibitions and more,” said Aw Kah Peng, Chief
Executive of STB. “Through TicketCube, we hope to get visitors and
Singaporeans excited about our vibrant events calendar and over
time, cultivate a stronger appetite for arts and entertainment.”
TicketCube is located in the heart of Orchard Road
between Ngee Ann City and Wisma Atria.
“Increasing visibility, awareness and access to
arts events in Singapore are part of the National Arts Council
(NAC)'s priorities,” said Benson Puah, Chief Executive Officer of
the NAC. “With over 30,000 arts events a year now in Singapore, it is very useful to have more avenues to promote what's
happening and make buying tickets even more convenient. We are
thus delighted that STB's TicketCube offers an additional touch
point in such a prominent location for artists
and arts groups to reach out to their audiences.”
