On June 5, 2025, fever – the global live-entertainment discovery and ticketing platform – made headlines by acquiring the UK‑based mobile ticketing app Dice. This deal comes hot on the heels of Fever’s massive $100 million funding round led by L Catterton and Point72 in early June.

What It Means Going Forward

• For Fans: Expect Dice to retain its slick, anti-scalper experience, enhanced with fever’s discovery tools and broader event range.
• For Artists & Venues: Access to enhanced data, analytics, and sales tools – on top of a larger audience – should help drive visibility and ticket uptake.
• For Fever: Deepens presence in Europe’s live-music scene, bolsters margins by owning ticketing backend, and strengthens the content-to-commerce loop. As Fever’s leadership noted, “Data and technology have the power to elevate the live music experience – making it more accessible, more personalised, and ultimately more impactful…”

This isn’t just another acquisition—it’s a power play. Fever is consolidating ticketing tech and fan-facing platforms to own the entire live-events funnel. For Dice users, it means better experiences powered by broader reach. For Fever, it locks in anti-scalping tech and credibility in the music scene. For the industry, it’s a bold bet on vertical integration—and a sign that the live-entertainment ecosystem is entering a whole new era.
