One Season, 18 New Clubs: The EVENTORI Community Keeps Growing

This season marked a turning point for EVENTORI. In just a few months, 18 new clubs joined our platform: from ice hockey to volleyball, including football, basketball, handball and rugby. Here's a look at everyone who chose smart ticketing this year.

A Season of Growth, Across Every Field

Since the start of the 2025-2026 season, EVENTORI has welcomed 18 new clubs into its community, bringing the total to nearly 40 clients. Beyond the number itself, what stands out is the diversity of the clubs who signed with us: six different sports, ranging from historic clubs to pro women's teams wanting to take their ticketing to the next level. What these clubs share is a common belief: ticketing is no longer just a sales tool, it's now a performance lever.

Ice Hockey: Five Clubs, From Ligue Magnus to Division 1

Ice hockey saw the biggest expansion of the EVENTORI community this season. Three Ligue Magnus clubs joined the platform: Les Gothiques d'Amiens, Les Spartiates de Marseille, and Les Dragons de Rouen. Two Division 1 clubs also decided to trust our platform: l'Étoile Noire de Strasbourg and Les Corsaires de Dunkerque.

Each club has its own story, its own challenges.

Les Gothiques d'Amiens, two-time French champions (1999, 2004) and a renowned team in Ligue Magnus, chose EVENTORI to rethink their entire fan journey, from the first click on the website to the entrance at the Coliséum. One clear goal: turning their ticketing into a real performance lever.

"Welcoming Les Gothiques d'Amiens to the EVENTORI Community is a real honor for us. This is a club with deep roots, a passionate community, and a clear ambition to grow. We are thrilled to support them in transforming ticketing into a genuine performance driver, helping them optimize revenue and deliver an experience as legendary as the club itself." - Baptiste Jourdan, CRO EVENTORI

Les Spartiates de Marseille arrived after many years of general admission seating, now making the move to numbered seating.

Les Dragons de Rouen, a legendary name in French hockey with 18 French championship titles and 7 French Cups, are looking to strengthen their revenue strategy and fan experience with EVENTORI, especially through EVENTORI Analytics' Revenue Management module.

"EVENTORI continues to establish itself as a go-to ticketing partner in French hockey! We're thrilled to announce our partnership with Les Dragons de Rouen. We can't wait to support this legendary club in developing their revenue strategy and fan experience, notably through our Revenue Management solution: Analytics." - Jules Delille, Head of Customer Success, EVENTORI

L'Étoile Noire de Strasbourg also chose EVENTORI to turn its ticketing into a true growth engine: a smooth back-office, built-in upsell and cross-sell mechanics, a mobile-first fan experience, and real-time data to drive sales strategy. Discover why l'Étoile Noire chose EVENTORI

Les Corsaires de Dunkerque are the latest addition to the hockey lineup. The club is leaving behind a tool it considered outdated for a solution that is going to save them between one and one and a half days of work per week thanks to how easily matches and packages can be created. EVENTORI's track record in hockey and its human, community-driven approach also sealed the decision.

Football: From Ligue 2 to Women's Football

On the football side, two Ligue 2 BKT clubs joined EVENTORI this season: FC Annecy and FC Sochaux-Montbéliard. In Ligue 3, FC Versailles also chose the platform to structure its ticketing.

FC Annecy, rooted in the French Alps since 1927, chose EVENTORI to modernize the entire fan experience, from the back office to the entrance at the Parc des Sports.

FC Sochaux-Montbéliard, founded in 1928 by Peugeot, begins its partnership with EVENTORI as the club enters a new era. Three factors made the difference: a data-first approach built to work with the club's existing ecosystem, a back-office that saves ticketing teams between half a day and a full day of work per week, and a strong human fit confirmed when the EVENTORI team visited the Stade Auguste-Bonal before any contract was signed.

FC Versailles also joined the platform to structure its Ligue 3 ticketing.

And a first for EVENTORI: the arrival of Montpellier FC Féminines, who compete in Arkema Première Ligue, our first partnership in the world of women's professional football. A strong signal of the community's growth beyond men's professional football, and a conviction reflected in how EVENTORI approaches elite women's sport. What set EVENTORI apart: a fast, intuitive product offering, real-time data and full coverage of the club's needs, EVENTORI's long-term vision, existing client feedback that was the best possible endorsement, and a close relationship built on trust.

Basketball: Five Clubs, From the Top Tier to Elite Women's Basketball

Basketball was also one of the most active areas this season. In Betclic Élite, Le Mans Sarthe Basket and JDA Dijon Basketball joined the platform. In Elite 2, Caen Basket Calvados and Hyères Toulon Var Basket followed. And another first for EVENTORI: the arrival of ESBVA-LM, now our first professional women's basketball club.

Le Mans Sarthe Basket, five-time French champions and recently qualified for the 2026-2027 BKT EuroCup, chose EVENTORI to rethink their ticketing experience end to end, from online sales through to access control at the Antarès Arena.

"Giving our fans an experience that matches their passion is a priority for MSB. By choosing EVENTORI to manage our ticketing end to end, from online sales through to access control, we're positioning ourselves to take a real step forward. We can't wait to see what this partnership brings to our arena and our fans." - Arnaud LEPROUX, Administrative Director, Le Mans Sarthe Basket

JDA Dijon Basketball, three-time French Cup winners, joins EVENTORI alongside the club's handball section: the club's two disciplines, with two distinct fanbases sharing the same Palais des Sports, are now managed from a single platform. Discover why JDA chose EVENTORI (article in English)

Caen Basket Calvados, a well-known name in French basketball, founded in 1959, is turning its ticketing into a strategic asset.

ESBVA-LM, the “Guerrières de Villeneuve-d'Ascq”, two-time French champions (2017, 2024) and two-time EuroCup winners, chose EVENTORI for its hands-on support, product simplicity, and real-time visibility into sales data to guide their commercial strategy. Discover why ESBVA-LM chose EVENTORI.

"People talk a lot about developing women's sport. At EVENTORI, we'd rather take action. Working with ESBVA-LM sends a clear signal: elite women's sport deserves the exact same tools, the same attention, and the same level of ambition as any professional club. We're proud that the Guerrières made this choice with us." - Jules Delille, Head of Customer Success, EVENTORI

Hyères Toulon Var Basket is the latest addition to the basketball lineup, also joining the EVENTORI community.

Handball, Volleyball, Rugby: Three New Sports Take the Spotlight

This season also marks EVENTORI's expansion into new sports.

In handball, JDA Dijon Handball, who compete in Ligue Butagaz Énergie and reached the EHF European League Final Four for two consecutive seasons, joined the platform alongside the club's basketball section.

In volleyball, Tourcoing Lille Métropole Volley-Ball became the first professional volleyball club to join the EVENTORI community. The fan purchase journey, the simplicity of the back-office, the human fit, and feedback from clubs already using EVENTORI made the difference.

In rugby, two Pro D2 clubs joined the EVENTORI community this season: VRDR (Valence Romans Drôme Rugby) and Colomiers Rugby.

A Growing Community, a Vision Coming to Life

This growth didn't happen by chance. It is built on a platform designed to turn the complexity of ticketing into concrete results: in 2025, EVENTORI recorded 140% growth and surpassed 7 million tickets analyzed through its platform. In total, 114,563 new seats are now managed by EVENTORI Ticketing. From 7 clubs signed in 2024 to 38 clients to date, EVENTORI has become the go-to platform for sports clubs and event organizers, generating over €12 million in revenue, with a 20% average increase in revenue within the first year, a 10% average increase in sales, and 5 hours saved per week on average by teams using the platform. Behind these numbers is a vision shared by the whole EVENTORI team: every club deserves hands-on support and a tool worthy of its ambitions. This commitment shows in a support team available 7 days a week, and in the renewed trust of both longstanding and new clients.

These 18 new clubs are more than just a number. They reflect a deeper shift in French professional sports: clubs are looking for tools that match their ambitions, capable of centralizing ticketing, improving the fan experience, and giving them real-time visibility into their sales.
