Hamburg, 05 November 2009 – www.eventim.de, the Internet portal operated by CTS
EVENTIM AG, will provide concert promoters with new marketing opportunities for the future.
In partnership with iTunes Store, EVENTIM is combining the promotion for albums and
tickets, while also launching some attractive promotion activities for music fans.
Downloading an exclusive version of the favourite band’s new album to one’s own PC, Mac,
iPod or iPhone, discovering the music immediately after album release and being the first to
get a ticket for a concert on the forthcoming tour – fans of Tokio Hotel are elated about the
new promotion campaign at www.eventim.de. All those who pre-ordered the newly released
Tokio Hotel album ‘Humanoid’ through the iTunes Store will also be receiving one of the
much-craved ticket codes. Only with such a ticket code can fans of the band order up to four tickets online and conveniently at www.eventim.de before official box office sales begin for
the upcoming Tokio Hotel tour. The Tokio Hotel campaign is being promoted at both the
www.eventim.de and iTunes Store websites.
“Concert promoters and record labels have been working closely together for many years in
joint efforts to boost the popularity of their artists. Our service is tailored precisely to such
cooperation”, explains Malte Blumenthal, Vice President New Media at CTS EVENTIM AG.
“We are inviting every promoter and record label to experiment with these new marketing
opportunities and to reach out to new target groups. We’re open to every idea”, says Malte
Blumenthal. More joint activities by EVENTIM and iTunes are planned for the months ahead.
