Cardholders will also have the opportunity to purchase tickets to select opening-week shows, including access to otherwise sold-out performances. Additional benefits include special access to artist meet-and-greets.
“Mastercard is committed to inspiring people to pursue their passions, and music is one of the most powerful ways we connect with culture and community,” said Rustom Dastoor, EVP of Marketing and Communications for the Americas at Mastercard. “Our partnership with Blue Note Los Angeles marks an exciting expansion of our music footprint in a city that has long been a heartbeat of artistic innovation. Together, we are bringing cardholders closer to the sounds they love – offering exclusive access to intimate performances, sold-out shows, and unforgettable moments that only live music can deliver.”
“We’re proud to partner with Mastercard to offer their cardholders exclusive access to Blue Note LA. This collaboration is an exciting opportunity for us to connect even more people to live jazz and reflects our shared passion for delivering unforgettable experiences and truly memorable moments,” said Steven Bensusan, President of Blue Note Entertainment Group.
