2020 AXS Sports Facilities & Franchises
and Ticketing Symposium

Reboot, Revive, Reopen
This year’s Sports Facilities & Franchises and Ticketing Symposium will be transitioning to a two-day virtual event, September 22-23. Sports Business Journal along with our partner, AXS, are committed to bringing you the latest developments during this unprecedented time. 

As the sports industry begins to reopen, we will examine the successful efforts different leagues and organization have taken to re-imagine the fan experience.  We will also examine the latest trends in ticketing, and maintaining relationships with ticket holders, as well as how sports facilities are adapting to new guidelines and health mandates.


So join us, as we take a look across the industry as sports reboots, revives and reopens.

The two-day program is a must attend for anyone in ticketing or franchise and facility management. Both events are designed for team presidents, CEOs and other C-level executives (CFO, COO, CIO, CMO), as well as vice presidents and directors of key functional areas: facility operations and management, ticketing, premium seating, corporate sales and marketing.
