KFC YUM! CENTER AMONG FIRST ARENAS IN THE U.S. TO LAUNCH MOBILE APP

Louisville, KY (October 3, 2013) – Concertgoers and sports fans who are eager to hear the latest news on events and shows happening at AEG Facilities’ KFC Yum! Center can now connect with the arena via the free KFC Yum! Center mobile app. As one of the first arenas in the nation to develop a mobile app, the KFC Yum! Center is at the forefront of this digital technology allowing new ways for fans to connect before, during and post events.

Starting today the app is available for download in the iTunes App Store and the Google Play Store for free by searching ‘KFC Yum! Center’. Users will be able to enjoy multiple features including the ability to view the full event schedule, purchase tickets directly from the app, seamlessly add events to their calendar, share their attendance plans on Facebook and Twitter and receive push notifications to get the latest concert updates and special offers. 

The KFC Yum! Center’s app is the newest avenue the arena has developed to allow fans to find out about upcoming concerts, family shows and sporting events as well as enrich their experience while at the arena. The arena also has a social media presence on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest and Vine and sends updates to its community of subscribers via the KFC Yum! Center Insider e-newsletter.

“We are always looking at ways to improve our patrons' overall experience at the KFC Yum! Center,” said Sandra Kendall, Marketing Manager at AEG Facilities’ KFC Yum! Center. “From the point of purchase to their experience at the venue and staying in touch after they leave the facility, we hope the app allows our patrons to stay more connected with the events we have year-round.”
