Two great music venues, The Greek Theatre and Gibson Ampitheatre, are paired up to offer concert-goers options to make seeing live shows an even greater experience. It's called Premiere Marquee Club, and they offer premiums to members who purchase tickets to multiple events from a selection of shows* between the two venues.
Their annual concert subscription program, which was supposed to end today, was just extended 'til 10 p.m. Friday. Starting now LAist is giving away a Silver Level Membership! This means that our winner will be able to customize their own 3-show VIP concert package from the list of available shows*. Premiere Marquee Club members get benefits all summer long at both award-winning venues such as retail and restaurant discounts, a dedicated concession line, guaranteed seating at both venues for ALL shows, and much more!
Here's how the contest works:
- Enter the contest by making a comment on this post. Comments must fit the criteria, stated below.
- The criteria of the comment is to tell us what three shows you would choose (for example, we might choose Neko Case, Chelsea Handler and John Legend for our package).
- The contest closes at 11:59:59 p.m. on Thursday, April 9th, 2009.
- One qualifying entry will be randomly selected to receive the Silver Level Membership. They will be notified via the e-mail connected to their LAist.com login. They must confirm the receipt of the e-mail by 10:00:00 a.m., Friday, April 10th, 2009 or the Silver Membership will be issued to another winner.
