Case Study: Arcadia Unified School District strengthens revenue and online ticketing with Purplepass

Arcadia Performing Arts Center strengthens revenue stream with online ticket, merchandise and concession sales

The Arcadia Unified School District's performing arts center faced significant challenges with its outdated ticketing system, including no online sales, an inability to sell merchandise and concessions, and a lack of a customized shopping experience for its patrons. To modernize its operations and support online student registration during the COVID-19 pandemic, the district turned to the event management software from Purplepass.

By implementing Purplepass, AUSD gained a complete solution featuring ticket widgets, custom order questions, and online concession sales, all integrated directly into their website. This created a streamlined, branded checkout process. The results included a spike in revenue and attendance, the successful introduction of online student registration, and valuable insights from custom questionnaires, allowing the district to sell tickets, merchandise, and concessions entirely online.
