Bleacher Report Partners With Vivid Seats to Sell Tickets Through Bleacher Report’s App, Website, Social Platforms

Bleacher Report has partnered with online fan marketplace Vivid Seats as part of an initiative to sell tickets across B/R’s digital platforms.

On B/R’s app, website and social channels, fans can purchase game and event tickets through Vivid Seats’ marketplace. Bleacher Report has made a concerted effort to appeal to its young audience through direct messaging on its mobile app and live B/R shows during past Super Bowls.

ESPN’s digital platforms, a direct competitor to Bleacher Report, have had a similar partnership with Chicago-based Vivid Seats since 2017. But in this latest deal with B/R, Vivid Seats will also launch a media campaign across B/R’s platforms that is intended to increase its user base during the new NFL season and upcoming NBA and NHL seasons. The Los Angeles Clippers, for instance, have already partnered with Vivid Seats to facilitate secondary market shares.
