 | tix on the squareTIX on the Square is Edmonton’s community box office and information hub, owned and operated by the Edmonton Arts Council. |
TIX on the Square is a community box office that was initiated as a project by the EAC approximately ten years ago. The original purpose was to operate a RUSH ticket booth similar to the one in Toronto or New York but it soon became apparent that Edmonton did not have enough high priced shows to make this worthwhile. The idea was then put forward to develop a central box office for the numerous smaller professional and community groups in Edmonton. TIX offers services including selling their tickets, and promoting their concerts or events by maintaining a current media list. The organizations submit a prepared media release which we send out to over 100 media contacts by email or fax, depending on the preference of the contact.
The original tix website was developed about six years ago, and was redeveloped and launched in July 2009. As well as ticket sales we post media releases, graphics and photos on the website for the different events. Additionally, the website contains a directory of venues that are suitable for arts events.
We also offer a directory of arts organizations in Edmonton, which includes information about the organization, contact information and website links, giving Edmontonians unparalleled arts connections.
TIX staff strive to maintain a strong knowledge of all arts events happening in Edmonton - if you have a questions we don't have an answer for, we will find one! The success of TIX on the Square is attributed mainly to the excellent service we provide and the quality of the arts events that are offered.
