Paul Newman is the Director of Ticketing at AXS UK.
When it comes to event ticketing, there’s not much Paul hasn’t seen. Not only will he celebrate 10 years as the Director of Ticketing at AXS UK in 2024, but prior to that he worked at Live Nation and AEG, where his roles included Director of Ticketing at London’s O2 Arena.
He worked on Michael Jackson’s record-breaking, if ill-fated, run of 50 shows at the O2 in 2009 and 2010, and at AXS routinely oversees the ticketing for some of the UK’s biggest concerts, including Taylor Swift, and festivals like British Summer Time Hyde Park.
We talk about it all in this interview, from managing the onsale for high-demand events to the key things organizers need to prioritize with their ticketing strategy, and much more!
