The Rozsa Center and Michigan Tech Athletics will implement a new ticketing system starting June 1.
The performance center announced Friday that all university athletic events will begin using Vivenu. The shift responds to feedback requesting a simpler, easier-to-navigate ticketing experience. The university expects the change to improve the ticket purchasing process.
During a transition period, customers who already purchased tickets should expect an email from Vivenu in upcoming weeks requesting account setup. The Rozsa Center suggests creating an account to receive event information, updates and special offers, though accounts are not required for ticket purchases. All previously purchased tickets remain valid. The existing system continues operating through May 31. Find more information below.

In the next few months Michigan Technological University’s online ticket buyers will notice a few changes when they log on to purchase admission to university events. Both the Rozsa Center for the Performing Arts as well as Michigan Tech Athletics are switching from their current ticketing system to the vivenu ticketing platform. Up to this point, Michigan Tech Athletics and the Rozsa have shared one ticket purchasing website. With vivenu, each will have their own online ticketing shop.
“We’re shifting to vivenu in response to feedback we’ve heard about making the ticketing experience simpler and more reliable,” says Rozsa Executive Director Kiersten Birondo. “We want the ticketing experience to feel intuitive and consistent so it’s easy to navigate and doesn’t get in the way of planning a night out.”
While this change should improve Michigan Tech’s ticket purchasing experience, there will be a short adjustment period. Patrons who have purchased tickets to Rozsa Center events within the past several years should expect to receive an email in the next few weeks from vivenum requesting that they set up a new personal account. The same applies to those who have purchased tickets for Huskies Athletics events. Patrons who have attended both will receive separate emails for each system. While it is not required to have an account to purchase tickets,
it is recommended in order to receive information or updates about events, as well as to take advantage of potential special offers.
All previously purchased tickets for upcoming events are still valid, and tickets will be available to purchase through the existing platform through the month of May. However, beginning June 1, 2026 all ticket sales for both Athletics and the Rozsa will only be available via
their new vivenu online shops.
“We know a change like this has a learning curve as we make the transition, but I am looking forward to what this makes possible for our guests,” says Birondo. “vivenu will help us create a more consistent, easy to use ticketing experience over time.” The public is
encouraged to follow the Rozsa Center and Michigan Tech Athletics via social media or newsletters for more updates as the transition progresses.
