Global law firm Squire Patton Boggs has advised long-time client Live Nation Entertainment, Inc on its acquisition of SD Concerts, the leading live entertainment company in the Dominican Republic with a growing presence across Central and South America. The acquisition expands Live Nation’s presence across the rapidly growing touring scene across Latin America.
Founded in 2001, SD Concerts is behind many of the region’s most notable live events, promoting top Latin and international talent across the Dominican Republic, as well as supporting shows in Aruba, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Panama, and Puerto Rico. SD Concerts also operates a ticketing platform, which currently services all SD events and provides a foundation for future ticketing expansion in the region. Through the acquisition, that platform will become part of the Ticketmaster ecosystem.
The Squire Patton Boggs team was led by partner Awilda Alcántara-Bourdier, included senior associates María Pía García Henríquez and Laura Consuegra and associates Katiuska Ortega, Rita Mota, Diana de los Santos and Angela Melo.
