Stephen T. Parry, President, Golden Tickets

Since founding Golden Tickets on April 25, 1988, Steve Parry’s marketing experience, personal relationships and deal skills have helped the business grow over the last 28 years to $12 million annual gross sales.

With a demand for Sports Tour packages, Golden Sports Tours was added in 1990, which includes corporate sponsorships, Internet and media campaigns as well as large events.

After providing tickets, housing, and hospitality for the Masters Golf Tournament for 16 years, Steve and his partner saw a need for a better type of Hospitality facility, so in 2002 they built the very popular 1018 Club. They also saw there was a need for a better way to rent homes for that same Major Event so they formed Diamond Home Rentals in 2009.

In 2010, Steve and his partner also saw a need for changes within the Ticket Broker industry, in the areas of software currently available and the lack of control of their own inventory, so they formed Ticket Evolution, Inc.
