Tickets To Be Brought In-House

June 10, 2002

LAS VEGAS - When the three-year contract with Tickets.com expires on midnight, June 30, UNLV will become the latest university to take its ticketing in-house. On July 1, UNLVtickets will be the official ticketing source for all UNLV events.

All university ticketed events, including performing arts, athletics and other special events at the Thomas & Mack Center, Sam Boyd Stadium, Cox Pavilion and the university's performing arts venues will be affected.

New avenues for purchase include:

* Calling 702-739-FANS
* Logging onto www.unlvtickets.com
* Visiting the individual venue ticket offices
* Visiting outlets, including the Galleria at Sunset, the Meadows Mall, the Boulevard Mall and all Station Casino and Fiesta properties.

Paciolan, the leading software provider for university venues across the country, will power the new in-house system.

All tickets purchased through Tickets.com to UNLV events occurring after July 1 will be honored once the new system is in place.
