What if concert tickets – just like season tickets for sporting events such as football or hockey, for instance – were available on a subscription or package basis? Gone are the headaches of racing for tickets for each show, waiting on line, searching for seat locations…and sometimes, being disappointed with availability or even missing out entirely. With the Live Nation Premium Seating plans offered at the PNC Bank Arts Center, at Exit 116 of the Garden State Parkway in Holmdel, NJ, patrons can go right to the head of the line, so to speak, with a streamlined and stress-free ticket-buying process and feel like a rock star at each and every show they choose.

A terrific option for both individuals and businesses or groups alike, the Premium Seating program allows purchasers to select and lock in their seats for the number of shows of their choice. Packages are available at different price points, depending on the quantity of shows included. And, when you break down the cost on a per-ticket basis and add in the value of the package add-ons that are included – not to mention the invaluable convenience – going with a subscription package is truly a deal, and only gets better the more shows you select. There’s also no requirement to choose your specific dates at the outset, just the number of dates. Late-breaking news of a show you’d be dying to see? Make the call and make that one of your shows of choice, to be included in your plan.

For businesses, explains David Beck, director of sales, the Premium Seating program is ideal, offering an outstanding opportunity to hang out with employees and colleagues, entertain clients, or network, saying, “It’s great for business owners. Employees love it, and so do clients. We’ve got every kind of show, from kids to rock to ‘80s to country and more.” Fellow director of sales Victor DeMarco agrees, stating, “We offer the full spectrum that spans generations.” With the variety of genres offered throughout the season, there is sure to be something that will appeal to every musical taste – your own, or someone you know. As Brian Brucker, senior director of sales, points out, “Even if you don’t like a particular kind of music, you know someone who does. There is never a question of being able to use all of them.” Invite family members and friends, give tickets as gifts, or perhaps plan some special summertime celebrations. The possibilities are endless.

The bonuses that are included with a VIP package are impressive, and undeniably enhance the total experience of attending a performance. Premium seat amenities include:

• Reserved seats in prime locations

• Premium parking

• Private VIP entrance

• In-seat food and beverage service

• Your company name displayed on your seats

• Ability to order additional tickets

Many enhancements have been made over the course of 14 years that the program has been in place. This year, the venue will boast an improved setup at the VIP Club, with new furniture, additional restrooms, an enhanced food menu, new wait staff, and an upgraded sound system and televisions. VIP guests also enjoy special events such as pig roasts, face painting, and make-your-own-sundae celebrations. Brand new for 2013 will be a unique seating option, with “VIP suites” – similar to the private suites found in other arenas.
