QuintEvents Inks Deal To Sell NBA Draft Hospitality Packages

QuintEvents has signed a deal with the NBA to sell hospitality packages around the upcoming NBA Draft set for June 27 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. Financial terms of the one-year deal were not disclosed, but QuintEvents will sell hospitality packages at the NBA Draft for $299 for upper-bowl seats and $399 for lower-bowl seats. The packages also include a behind-the scenes tour of the arena, pre- and post-event hospitality, and a meet and greet with former NBAer John Starks.

It is the second time QuintEvents has sold hospitality packages around the NBA Draft. The company last sold packages around the '11 NBA Draft, which was held at Prudential Center in Newark. The company also sells hospitality packages around the NBA All-Star weekend. “We are trying to build our NBA program to have more than just the All-Star game,” said QuintEvents CEO Brian Learst. “We do a similar program with the NFL and that has become popular.”
