A native of Dublin, English has been part of the Ticketmaster team for over 20 years, having spent time working in its London office before transferring back to Dublin in 1997 as Ticketmaster expanded its operations to Ireland.

“I am honoured and privileged to have the opportunity to build on Eamonn’s successful leadership," said English. "We are at an exciting phase of the business with major technological innovations in the pipeline. I will continue to provide our clients with a first class service, and the best possible experience for fans.”

Up to this point, English has been responsible for technology, sales, marketing and other elements of Ticketmaster's business, working closely alongside the late Eamonn O'Connor.

“Keith’s deep knowledge of the industry and his years alongside Eamonn understanding the client relationships in Ireland set him up to take the reins in this important business," said Mark Yovich, President of Ticketmaster International.
