ISC Announces Comprehensive Ticket and Travel Protection Program
September 20 2018 - 12:00PM
International Speedway Corporation (NASDAQ Global Select Market;
ISCA; OTC Bulletin Board: ISCB) (“ISC”) today announced the
implementation of a comprehensive ticket and travel protection
program with the ISC Weather Protection Program and TicketGuardian,
both initiatives that will provide safeguards to guests when
planning and attending NASCAR events.
The ISC Weather Protection Program applies to all paid
grandstand tickets to NASCAR races at any ISC facility that are
postponed and rescheduled to a different date due to inclement
weather. Guests will now be able to exchange paid grandstand
tickets that were not used on a rescheduled race date for a future
NASCAR event at an ISC facility. The unused grandstand tickets may
be exchanged for a same-series ticket of equal or lesser value
based on event and seating location availability.
Guests with an unused grandstand ticket have 60 days to contact
the ticket office at the ISC facility where the event was
postponed. Eligible grandstand tickets may be exchanged for any
future NASCAR race at an ISC facility within one year of the
original event date or for the same race the following year,
excluding the DAYTONA 500. Customers who have tickets to a
postponed DAYTONA 500 event may exchange their tickets for a future
DAYTONA 500 event; however, tickets from other Monster Energy
NASCAR Cup Series events may not be exchanged for a DAYTONA 500
ticket.
“Race fans make significant investments to attend NASCAR races
at our facilities,” stated Lesa France Kennedy, ISC Chief Executive
Officer. “When inclement weather impacts the schedule, it can be
frustrating. The ISC Weather Protection Program addresses that
concern and provides an assurance to our guests that if they can’t
attend the rescheduled event, they will have the opportunity to see
another race at another ISC facility.”
In situations that keep fans from attending the races,
TicketGuardian's FanShield insurance technology will continue to
provide fans a feeling of security when buying tickets in advance.
With low-cost coverage, fans are protected from the burden of
having to resell their ticket or losing their money altogether if
they're unable to attend the event. Customers instead can receive a
refund despite the traditional status quo of events, tickets, and
registrations being non-refundable.
Fans that attend NASCAR events at ISC facilities will now enjoy
comprehensive coverage when planning and attending events.
