NEW YORK, Aug. 06, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- True Tickets, a leader in secure digital ticket delivery solutions, is proud to announce a groundbreaking collaboration with the Intrepid Museum. This marks True Tickets' inaugural venture into the museum sector, aiming to enhance the ticketing process for visitors by offering a seamless, secure and convenient method to explore the Museum’s one-of-a-kind exhibits, artifacts and programs.
The Intrepid Museum, a private non-profit organization, holds a special place in New York City’s cultural landscape. Founded in 1982 with the acquisition of the storied WWII aircraft carrier Intrepid—a National Historic Landmark and the centerpiece of its collection—the Museum welcomes over one million visitors annually from around the world. Its mission is to promote awareness and understanding of history, science, and service through bold and immersive collections, exhibitions, and programming. Visitors experience immersive fun through STEM and history, showcased by technological marvels such as Enterprise, the world’s first space shuttle, and Growler, the only nuclear-weapons-carrying submarine open to the public. The Museum also features dozens of military aircraft, including fighter jets, a supersonic spy plane, and the Concorde, the world’s fastest commercial airliner.
By adopting True Tickets' advanced digital ticketing solution, the Intrepid Museum will benefit from a secure and streamlined ticketing process. Additionally, True Tickets provides valuable data insights that can help the Museum better understand visitor behavior and preferences, allowing for more tailored and engaging visitor experiences. It will also improve operational efficiency, providing a frictionless entry process that minimizes wait times and improves overall visitor satisfaction.
