TicketCity is a ticket reselling business headquartered in Austin, Texas.

Randy Cohen, TicketCity’s Chief Energizing Officer, started selling tickets on the secondary market in 1988 while a student at the University of Texas at Austin. In March 1990, Cohen founded TicketCity.

The original company had four employees and one computer in a small office. Today, TicketCity employs more than thirty personnel and occupies an office building in central Austin.

TicketCity's first website launched in 1996. On August 8th, 1998 TicketCity released the first fully functioning e-commerce website in the ticketing industry. The site allowed consumers to purchase tickets online. TicketCity's website has received several major face lifts to make it more interactive and SEO competitive, including a major addition in 2001 that integrated TicketCity's proprietary Real Time Ticketing software, enabling users to buy inventory in confidence of ticket availability.

TicketCity is currently under investigation by The Texas Attorney General's Office for failure to deliver tickets to a client for the 2008 Beijing Games. TicketCity has not commented on the incident.
