Description: SEAT Vivid Seats October 26, 2025
Vivid Seats Inc. (NASDAQ: SEAT) runs an online ticket marketplace across the United States, Canada, and Japan, split into a Marketplace segment that connects buyers and sellers via its branded platforms (Vivid Seats, Vegas.com, Wavedash, and Vivid Picks) and a Resale segment that purchases tickets for secondary-market sales while developing the proprietary Skybox ERP system for inventory and dynamic pricing management.
In FY 2023 the company reported $1.04 billion in total revenue, a 12% year-over-year increase driven primarily by higher average ticket prices and a 9% rise in transaction volume, reflecting continued consumer appetite for live-event experiences as pandemic restrictions receded.
Key economic drivers for Vivid Seats include discretionary consumer spending trends, the resurgence of in-person entertainment, and the growing adoption of mobile-first ticketing solutions; sector-wide, the U.S. secondary ticket market is projected to reach $13 billion by 2027, with price-elastic demand concentrated in sports and music concerts.
