The University of Arkansas at Pine Bluff athletics department (Pine Bluff, Ark.) cited dedicated client support and customizable reporting tools among several reasons they chose TicketReturn as its exclusive ticketing partner for the next seven years. TicketReturn will serve as the Golden Lions’ official provider of industry-leading box office, online and mobile technologies.
