Firefly Fest picks TickPick 

TickPick has replaced StubHub as Delaware’s Firefly Music Festival’s official third-party ticket outlet.

The New York-based firm is a secondary ticketing platform that will run a call booth at the festival for fans to buy face-value festival passes.

“Our selection by Firefly Music Festival is a big deal for us,” TickPick chief executive and co-founder Brett Goldberg said in a statement.

“The modern millennial-aged consumer wants transparency and simple mobile transactions. We provide both.”

Firefly 2018, which is set to take place from June 14-17, has a star-studded list of headliners including Eminem, Kendrick Lamar, The Killers and the Arctic Monkeys.

According to The News Journal, it is the first time the festival is showcasing two hip-hop headliners. Other sets include Lil Wayne, Odesza, Portugal. The Man, SZA, MGMT and Logic, among others.

Firefly, which is notching its seventh year in Delaware, is produced by Red Frog Presents, which is partnered with Coachella promoter Goldenvoice.
