ATP World Tour Finals sign secondary ticketing partner

Online secondary ticketing company Viagogo has signed up as an official partner of the Barclays ATP World Tour finals.

The deal will allow fans to buy and sell tickets to the event on Viagogo’s internet platform. The Barclays ATP World Tour Finals take place at London’s The O2 on November 22 to 29 this year.

“We are delighted to be working with the Barclays ATP World Tour Finals for their first year in the UK,” said Eric Baker, chief executive of viagogo. “We look forward to helping tennis fans get tickets to see the tennis elite battle it out for the last big title of the year.”

An ATP spokesperson said: “The ATP is delighted to be able to provide tennis fans with a safe and secure platform to buy and sell tickets for the ATP World Tour’s flagship end of season event.”

Viagogo has recently signed a similar deal – to be an official secondary ticketing partner – with the French Tennis Federation for Roland Garros and the BNP Paribas Masters.
