ATHENS, Ga. (June 29, 2021) – The University of Georgia has extended its longstanding relationship with Learfield IMG College Ticket Solutions and expanded its scope of services. Over the previous three years, Ticket Solutions has helped Georgia achieve record-setting attendance and revenue numbers for men’s basketball, while increasing season ticket bases in all sports it supports.
In addition to driving new ticket revenue, Ticket Solutions now will assist in building relationships with Georgia Bulldog Club members, while continuing to serve Georgia fans.
