On today’s episode of The Tom Letizia Show on The Middle Ground, Tom sits down with Daren Libonati, a Las Vegas entertainment legend with a 36-year career that spans stadiums, arenas, music festivals, boxing matches, and now — fintech innovation.
Daren shares how he rose from intern in the Thomas & Mack parking lot to Executive Director of three UNLV venues, helping launch the NBA Summer League, UFC fights, and iconic music events like Route 91 and Rock in Rio. He discusses the evolution of live entertainment, the importance of partnerships, and the mindset that drives success in a high-stakes, high-energy industry.
Now as Co-Founder of Jampack, Libonati is once again reshaping the industry — this time through a $155 million platform that bundles tickets, hotels, dining, and experiences for fans across the world.
