CTS EVENTIM, one of the leading international providers of ticketing services and live entertainment, and Borussia Mönchengladbach have signed an extensive ticketing partnership agreement. In future, the Bundesliga club will handle its ticket sales for home matches using the EVENTIM.Tixx software provided by sports specialist EVENTIM Sports.

Borussia's manager, Stephan Schippers, was keen to emphasise that, 'By partnering with EVENTIM, we want to and will be optimising the service we provide our fans when selling tickets to our home matches, and modernising ourselves on a sustainable basis by expanding our electronic ticketing.' Karsten Elbrecht, managing director of CTS EVENTIM Sports GmbH, said, 'We are pleased to welcome Borussia Mönchengladbach as another top club in Germany that has decided to adopt our digitalisation solutions. Borussia Mönchengladbach is one of the best-managed clubs in Germany and a pioneer in terms of innovation and digitalisation.
