Barclaycard has signed a partnership deal with Global, a media and entertainment group, for a span of three years.

The partnership marks the latest addition to Barclaycard’s entertainment offerings, providing savings on a range of events.

Barclaycard cardholders can save 5% on tickets for events such as concerts, theatre, expos, comedy and sport.

They can save 5% on food and drink at selected festival vendors as well as enjoy exclusive access to festival presales and save 10% on each and every presale ticket.

Barclaycard sponsorship head Dan Mathieson said: “Global’s network of gigs and concerts also means that we are able to give our cardholders something to look forward to when the lockdown lifts by offering exclusive presales and perks to some of UK’s most celebrated music events.”

The alliance includes Barclaycard’s headline sponsorship of the music festivals Summertime Ball and Jingle Bell Ball led by Global’s UK-based radio station ‘Capital’.
