When AS Monaco Basket partnered with Wiremind in 2023 to implement EVENTORI, the aim was to modernize ticketing, enhance the fan experience, and support the club’s growing ambitions. Within six months, ticketing revenue rose by 50%, proving the strength of the technology and partnership. Two seasons later, that collaboration has evolved into a continuous innovation effort — refining operations, adding new features, and building one of the most advanced ticketing systems in European basketball.
37% Growth in Ticketing Revenue Season-Over-Season
AS Monaco Basket, commonly known as the “Roca Team,” is one of Europe’s fastest-rising basketball clubs. Reigning champions of France’s Betclic Élite, the club also reached the EuroLeague Final Four in 2025, finishing 2nd.
The team plays at the renovated Gaston Médecin Arena, upgraded in 2022 to a capacity of 4,500 seats, with 300–350 reserved for hospitality. Over the course of the 2022–23 season, AS Monaco hosted 43 home games, drawing fans from across the region and beyond.
We spoke with Violaine Morand, Ticketing Director of AS Monaco Basket, to understand how EVENTORI has helped the club elevate its ticketing strategy.
"As Ticketing Director, my primary responsibilities are optimizing arena capacity and maximizing revenue. This means ensuring our venue is filled for every game while generating the highest possible revenue from these events."
The Challenge: A Growing Club Held Back by Outdated Tools
When Violaine joined the club in 2023, AS Monaco already had a ticketing system in place. But it quickly became clear that the legacy platform was no longer suitable:
Not Scalable: The club was growing rapidly on both the domestic and European stage, and its existing software couldn’t keep pace with rising demand.
Outdated Experience: The fan journey did not meet modern expectations for digital-first, seamless interactions.
Revenue Limitations: Heavy reliance on complimentary tickets limited the club’s ability to maximize yield from sold-out or high-demand matches.
“I realized the existing system was no longer adapted to a club growing so quickly and to today’s standards of customer experience.”
“We were managing everything manually — seat maps, allocations, reporting. Nothing was fast or intuitive. We needed a tool that could grow with us, not hold us back.”
After evaluating several options, Monaco chose EVENTORI for its modern, modular design and Wiremind’s reputation for close, hands-on collaboration.
Implementation was fast. Six months from decision to launch. But what set the process apart was the working relationship between the two teams.
“It wasn’t just a supplier-client exchange,” says Violaine. “It felt like we were building something together. EVENTORI’s team listened to every operational detail, understood our challenges, and adapted the product around our reality.”
The initial rollout focused on stabilizing operations and empowering the club’s staff to manage ticketing autonomously. EVENTORI quickly became the central tool across the club’s commercial, marketing, and operations teams, providing a single, reliable view of every seat and sale.
The platform’s impact was immediate: a faster back office, smoother fan journeys, and, most importantly, a measurable jump in revenue.
The Solution: A Scalable Architecture for Continuous Innovation
The decision was shaped by several key factors:
A Unified, Scalable Foundation: EVENTORI provided a centralised environment in which every ticketing operation could be managed from within one platform. Instead of fragmented workflows, Monaco gained a single operational backbone combining Resale, Dynamic Pricing, Access Control, Front Office, etc.
Modern Fan Experience: From smoother seat selection to mobile wallet integration and resale options, EVENTORI offered the digital-first journey fans expect today. This shift significantly reduced friction across the entire customer lifecycle while increasing conversion and attendance.
Operational Autonomy & Efficiency: The club’s ticketing team can now handle campaigns, allocations, bundles, pricing, and reporting without relying on external interventions, or being limited by system limitations.
“What stands out is autonomy,” Violaine explains. “We have full visibility, full control, and the freedom to test new ideas. That’s invaluable.”
Innovation Built Through Partnership: What differentiated EVENTORI was not only its capabilities, but the way it was delivered. Wiremind’s hands-on collaboration enabled rapid development of advanced features such as the Resale module, Skidata integration, and multi-VAT bundles, ensuring the system keeps improving with the club’s evolving needs.
Future-Proof Ticketing Management: Beyond solving today’s challenges, EVENTORI’s modular architecture and continuous product evolution ensure the club remains ahead of industry trends. Features like dynamic pricing, and integrated access control position the club to optimise yield and fan experience well into future seasons.
The Results: +37% Ticketing Revenue, +11.5% Tickets Sold
Boosting Sales and Revenue: EVENTORI has enabled the club to maintain a high attendance rate by compensating for the reduction in invitations with a significant increase in ticketing revenue by 50% compared to last season.
Enhancing Fan Experience: With EVENTORI, the club has been able to develop a fully personalized ticketing interface designed for its fans, allowing them to book and manage their tickets easily from their mobile. Thus, access to the hall has been streamlined and simplified.
These advancements are best encapsulated by Violaine Morand, who notes:
“EVENTORI has not only increased our ticketing revenue but has also consistently supported us with their expertise and service.”
The numbers tell a story of sustained, data-driven growth. The club recorded:
+11.5% more tickets sold
+8% higher occupancy
+37% increase in ticketing revenue season-over-season
Expanding the System: Three New Innovative Additions Through Partnerships
Following a successful first season, AS Monaco Basket and Wiremind didn’t stop at optimization. Together, they expanded EVENTORI’s use across new areas — turning a solid implementation into an ongoing innovation roadmap.
Resale
The introduction of the ticket resale module allowed fans to securely resell their seats for high-demand games. This not only reduced no-shows but also maximized yield on every match.
“Resale was a game-changer,” notes Violaine. “It gave flexibility to our fans and helped us fill the arena even when plans changed last minute.”
Skidata Integration
To enhance matchday operations, the club integrated EVENTORI with Skidata, connecting ticketing and access control. Skidata also provides the club with turnstiles, creating a fully integrated entry management system. This provided real-time attendance data and eliminated bottlenecks at entry points.
"With Skidata, we can see in real time who's in the arena. It's a small detail operationally, but a huge step forward for our staff and our reporting."
Ticketing Bundles
The club also began using ticketing bundles extensively — leveraging the new bundle feature to create complex offers, including packages that contain products with different VAT rates.
"The bundle feature has become central to our commercial strategy. We can now create sophisticated packages combining different seat categories and products. It's incredibly flexible."
A Partnership Built on Collaboration
For both sides, this project has become more than a case study in modern ticketing — it’s a model of how a software partner and a club can evolve together.
Wiremind’s EVENTORI team works closely with Monaco’s ticketing department, exchanging feedback, co-developing features, and refining workflows around real operational needs.
“The best part is that it’s continuous,” says Violaine. “We’re in touch regularly, testing ideas, finding ways to do things better.”
That partnership has allowed new features to be designed and deployed rapidly, ensuring the platform grows in step with the club’s needs rather than forcing adaptation to a rigid system.
Looking Ahead
Two seasons in, AS Monaco Basket’s journey with EVENTORI represents what modern ticketing transformation can look like when technology and partnership go hand in hand.
The club now benefits from a scalable, integrated system that drives revenue, simplifies operations, and adapts as fast as the game itself.
