LOS ANGELES, Oct. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Live Nation <a href="https://comicvibe.com/joy-awards-2027-set-to-be-cancelled-in-saudi-arabia-as-entertainment-calendar-shifts/” title=”Joy Awards 2027 set to be cancelled in Saudi Arabia as entertainment calendar shifts”>Entertainment, Inc.

Obligations under the Notes will be guaranteed by the company and the company’s existing and future domestic restricted subsidiaries that guarantee the company’s senior secured credit facilities.
The company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to fund the redemption in full of all of the company’s outstanding 6.500% senior secured notes due 2027, to pay fees and expenses related to the offering, and for general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment or repurchase of certain of the company’s indebtedness. Completion of the offering of the Notes is subject to, among other things, pricing and market conditions.
The Notes and the related note guarantees will be offered through a private placement and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws. As a result, the Notes and the related note guarantees may not be offered or sold in the United States or to any “U.S. persons” except pursuant to an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Accordingly, the Notes and the related note guarantees will be offered only to “qualified institutional buyers” under Rule 144A of the Securities Act and, outside the United States, to persons other than “U.S. persons” in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. This press release is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes, nor shall there be any sale of any securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
