Tixr, the fast-growing live event ticketing and merchandising company, today announced the official opening of its London office and strategic expansion into continental Europe. Industry veteran Stephanie Rosa has been appointed to serve as managing director of the London outpost, leading a new handpicked local team that will build on the firm's already strong roster of partners in the region.
The move marks the California-based company's latest international launch, following its Canadian expansion announced in March. Tixr's recent client partnerships in Europe include Space Ibiza, Eden Nightclub in Ibiza, UK digital radio station Kissory, FAT International, RuPaul's Dragcon, Dreamhack, Uptown festival, Dublin ComicCon, Leicestershire County Cricket Club , Egg London, E1 Series, Brockwell Live, Aramco Team Series and popular London brewery Signature Brew.
Most recently, Tixr collaborated with the Forbidden Forest festival which took place earlier this month. Nestled in hundreds of acres of lush woodland in the grounds of the stunning Belvoir Castle in Leicestershire, Forbidden Forest gathers 20,000 over three nights to celebrate music, nature and dance. tickets for next year's festival, the first to be processed under the new Tixr deal, will go on sale to the general public later this year.
“There is no modern platform more capable of serving such a wide range of complex events and the opportunities in the region are enormous,” said Rosa. “The fantastic regional team we've built is honored to partner with iconic sell-out festivals like Forbidden Forest who value design, innovation and share our mission to deliver the best possible fan experience, starting at the ticket.”
Before moving to London for her newly created role, Rosa served as Tixr's director of partnerships and sales. He came to Tixr from UK-based Festicket, which was acquired by Lyte in 2022, where he served as vice president of North American sales.
“Every year we aim to deliver exceptional customer experiences,” he said Laura Ball, director of marketing at Forbidden Forest festival. “When we chose Tixr as our trusted ticketing partner for 2025 and beyond, we knew that each year we could work together to further raise the bar and deliver a best-in-class experience for our customers in the Forbidden Forest.”
Tixr already serves events in 10 European countries and exclusively licenses more than 500 of the most valuable live entertainment brands in 40 countries. Since its inception, Tixr has processed nearly $2 billion in transactions through its highly visual, modern, unified commerce platform designed for sales beyond admission tickets.
Tixr's new London office is located in London Bridge.
