Singapore GP engages additional partner to strengthen ticketing team

As part of Singapore GP’s efforts to strengthen the ticketing system, the appointment of additional resources will improve the system to maximise security, speed and reliability to help ensure an efficient ticket buying experience.

“We are delighted at the opportunity to participate in this prestigious event, and we look forward to providing our best services throughout the project. SISTIC’s experience in providing end-to-end ticketing services, including the logistics to support ticket delivery
processes would prove invaluable,” said Kenneth Tan, Deputy Chief Executive Officer of SISTIC.

Additional measures to ensure that the ticketing system is as robust as possible include engaging an independent IT auditor to assess the system. Randomly selected individuals who have previously purchased tickets to the 2008 FORMULA 1™ SingTel Singapore Grand Prix will also be invited to purchase tickets for this year’s race prior to the general launch as part of a ‘live’ load test before public ticketing is launched.

General ticketing for the 2009 FORMULA 1™ SingTel Singapore Grand Prix is scheduled to be released in stages in early April 2009. Further details will be announced shortly.
