YEG LIVE
YEG Live is Edmonton's source for trustworthy and accurate local live music artist, venue, and event listings PLUS convenient e-ticketing.
Some people just get it right. We couldn't be more pleased to be working with YEG Live as our exclusive ticketing agent.
We'd say their e-ticketing is the way of the future, but it's just as accurate to say it's the way right now. And Chris and Cameron couldn't be easier or more of a pleasure to work with. Their fees are very reasonable, and the service is first rate. Within 20 minutes meeting with Chris and Cameron, all of our ticketing issues were solved. The best way to go, in our opinion. We foresee YEG Live growing in leaps and bounds in the near term, and hope we can continue to be partners with them for years to come.
If you're in a band, promoting an event or concert, or running a venue, we highly recommend hooking up with YEG Live.

Race Week Edmonton
"RWE was planned from Day 1 to be an inclusive event, to be annual, and to be adaptable. Individual events are organized by individual car clubs, organizations, interested parties, or larger corporations under the banner of RWE. In this manner, each event is run by experts in each area, and they bring their passions to the game. Also, this means that the workload on each volunteer team is focused on making their specific event a success, and not overloaded with other concerns."
