Ticketmaster taps Post Malone for Apple integration

Ticketmaster has announced a series of new integrations with Apple, alongside a partnership with American rapper and singer Post Malone.

Fans can now discover Ticketmaster tickets through song-identification app Shazam with additional touchpoints across Apple Music, Apple Maps, and iOS Spotlight Search.

Bonus content such as the tour setlist playlist, Apple Watch faces, phone wallpapers and photos will also be available for featured artists.

On Shazam, fans can “save” their favourite artists to be notified of future content, tickets and more.

Fans will also be able to follow along with Malone’s tour on a new Apple Music Guide on Apple Maps and see his favorite stops

Malone is the first artist to be featured in the ‘360 programme’ for his F-1 Trillion tour, which kicked off this weekend and will span 21 dates in the US. In advance of the tour, he shared a preview of his tour setlist exclusively on Apple Music.

Fans will also be able to follow along with Malone’s tour on a new Apple Music Guide on Apple Maps and see his stops on the road – while discovering new ways to find Post Malone tickets at the venues near them.

Ticketmaster first announced the partnership with Shazam in July, following on from similar partnerships with TikTok and Snapchat.
