TEG Names Tim McGregor as Global Head of Touring
TEG promotes experienced live music executive Tim McGregor to global head of touring, leading the promoter group across the business’ concert touring and festival portfolio.
Announced late Friday, Aug. 16, McGregor is promoted from managing director of TEG Live, a position he has served in since joining the company in 2016.
With effect from today, McGregor is responsible for overseeing the growth of TEG’s global touring businesses across Australia, New Zealand, Asia, UK, Europe, and North America.
He oversees a portfolio that includes TEG Live, TEG Dainty, TEG Van Egmond, TEG MJR, Handsome Tours, Laneway Festival, TEG Asia, TEG Live Europe and TEG North America.
“I am delighted to appoint Tim to the role of global head of touring. Tim’s outstanding track record in the live entertainment industry draws on more than three decades of experience,” comments TEG Group CEO Geoff Jones.
“His in-depth industry knowledge and excellent business acumen makes him the ideal choice to lead the overall concert and festival touring strategy for TEG across the globe.”
He adds, “I look forward to continuing to work closely with Tim in his new role to drive growth and success for the TEG business.”
McGregor was closely involved in Fred Again’s award-winning pop-up arena tour earlier this year, which sold roughly 230,000 tickets without any marketing, and the inaugural, Out 2 Lunch event with Fisher, a sell-out which shifted 30,000 tickets.
“I am excited to be furthering my remit with TEG to build its Touring operations both locally and globally,” he comments. “I am immensely proud of all that we have achieved to date, but this is only the beginning.”
Based in Sydney, TEG is a specialist in live entertainment, ticketing, digital and data.
“I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Geoff for this opportunity and for his ongoing support,” adds McGregor. “We’ve been on a long journey together, and I look forward to embarking on the next phase of TEG with Geoff and the senior leadership team.”
