AXS (pronounced access) is an American ticket outlet for sports and entertainment events, founded in 2011 and owned by Anschutz Entertainment Group (AEG), the world's second largest entertainment promoter behind Live Nation Entertainment. AEG operate venues globally, as well as promote events under their AEG Presents banner, meaning these venues and promoted events typically use AXS as their primary ticket outlet.
Background
The initial AXS deployment was August 2011[1][2] and venues and services have been added in a phased roll out. As of August 2013, AXS was the exclusive or primary ticket provider for over 30 US venues and 9 UK venues. The first Crypto.com Arena concert available only through AXS was Beyoncé in 2013. While the NBA's Los Angeles Lakers still use Ticketmaster primarily for the majority of tickets, the premium sections in the arena use AXS for Laker games. The Los Angeles Kings of the NHL use AXS for all ticket types, including parking at the arena.
