AEG Europe this week announced it had promoted Sally Davies to the job of Venue Director of The O2 Arena. She previously ran two of the smaller spaces under the dome, indigo2 and The O2 bubble. Elsewhere, The O2’s ticketing boss Paul Newman was given an extended remit that will take in all of the complex’s music and entertainment sales.
Music Week quote AEG Europe CEO David Campbell as follows: “I am delighted to appoint Sally Davies to the new position of venue director for the arena. She has proved herself constantly during her time at AEG, making successes of both indigO2 and our exhibition space. I am also pleased that Paul Newman is taking on a broader remit. Paul has worked in the industry for years and has always shown a deep knowledge of sales as well as ticketing strategies”.
He added: “The year ahead will be another exciting one for The O2 and we are concentrating on bringing in more of the very best content for the arena and retaining our position as the world’s number one”.
