PyeongChang 2018 Winter Olympics announces ticketing partner

The PyeongChang Organising Committee for the 2018 Olympic and Paralympic winter Games (POCOG) has agreed a partnership with South Korean ticketing services company Interpark Corporation.

Named an official supporter of the Games in the ticketing sales and distribution services category, Interpark will provide POCOG with the necessary systems, equipment and personnel needed for the body to implement its ticketing program.

Key client groups and the Korean general public will also receive ticket sales services from Interpark.

Recently appointed POCOG Secretary General Yeo Hyungkoo advised “it is very meaningful to have Interpark, which is one of the leading companies in the ticketing business in Korea, as a sponsor.

“Through its outstanding infrastructure and sales know-how, PyeongChang 2018 is striving to achieve full stadia.”

Long-serving Korean government official Yeo began his role at the beginning of November.

Interpark has supported a host of major sporting events held in South Korea, including the 2002 FIFA World Cup, 2010 Formula One Korean Grand Prix, 2011 IAAF World Championships in Athletics in Daegu and the 2015 Gwangju summer Universiade.

The 2018 Winter Olympic Games will take place in PyeongChang from 9th to 25th February 2018.
