Citizens today announced it has become the Official Bank of the MGM Music Hall at Fenway and the presenting sponsor of CollegeFest Boston held at Citizens House of Blues. These new ventures reinforce Citizens’ commitment to supporting live music and entertainment in Boston and will provide unique experiences for Citizens’ customers, including exclusive ticket offerings, VIP experiences, insider events, and other special perks.

“The addition of MGM Music Hall at Fenway to the Citizens Live portfolio and our support for CollegeFest are a natural extension of our commitment to some of the city’s most beloved performing arts centers,” said Lisa Murray, President, Citizens Massachusetts. “We value the unique opportunity to help strengthen and sustain live music and performances and contribute to Boston’s position as a cultural hub and go-to entertainment destination.”

MGM Music Hall at Fenway, a state-of-the-art venue located next to the iconic Fenway Park, has quickly become a premier destination for live music and entertainment. With Citizens support, MGM Music Hall will continue to host an array of highly anticipated concerts and events, enhancing the cultural landscape of the city.

Through Citizens Live, the bank’s music and entertainment program in partnership with Crossroads Presents, Citizens’ debit and credit card customers have access to special benefits at concerts, including presale and early entry perks at the bank’s six sponsored venues – MGM Music Hall at Fenway, Brighton Music Hall presented by Citizens, Citizens House of Blues, Citizens Opera House, Orpheum Theatre presented by Citizens, and Paradise Rock Club presented by Citizens.

To celebrate the new addition of MGM Music Hall at Fenway to the Citizens Live Portfolio, the bank is hosting “Citizens Live on Tour.” This two-week traveling road show will take place from September 16th - 30th at popular spots around Boston, including the Fenway neighborhood, Seaport, Rose Kennedy Greenway, Wharf District, Dewey Square, and more.
