Klook Expands Its Experiences Offering to Include Sports & Live Events, Unveiling a Blockbuster Line-Up Across Four of the World's Biggest Properties

16.04.2026

World Cup 2026, Roland-Garros 2026, Wimbledon 2026 and Formula 1™ packages now available on Klook

SINGAPORE, April 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Klook, a leading pan-regional experiences platform in Asia Pacific, today announced the expansion of its offerings to include sports and live events, bringing together four of the world's most iconic sporting properties: World Cup 2026, Roland-Garros 2026, Wimbledon 2026 and Formula 1™. The launch adds Sports and Live Events to Klook's wealth of experiences, connecting fans to premium matchday access.

The expansion is timed to meet a measurable shift in traveler behavior. Findings from Klook's Travel Pulse 2026 reveal that mega-events have become catalysts for travel. Data shows that one in five global travelers now plan their entire vacation around a specific event, with 25% specifically citing sporting matches as their main travel motivator.

How events are reshaping travel behaviors:

  • 91% of fans use mega-events as a springboard for a longer trip. Rather than a "fly-in, fly-out" approach, 41% of travelers extend their stay by at least three days to explore local attractions and hidden gems.
  • Due to the high-stakes nature of live events, these travelers are more decisive. Nearly half of the fans now secure event tickets one to six months in advance, creating a longer window to facilitate the rest of their travel needs, from local transport to curated tours.

"The World Cup, Roland-Garros, Wimbledon, Formula 1™ — these are the most iconic sporting events that fans build their year around, and they're increasingly becoming reasons for people to travel. Bringing all four onto our platform means fans can build the complete trip around them, from premium hospitality and match access to local tours, transport, connectivity, and more. That's the depth we've always been bringing to the experiences space, enabling travelers to uncover what makes a destination come alive, now on the world's biggest stages," said Nathan Szabo, Head of Western Supply and Strategic Partnerships, Klook.

World Cup 2026

World Cup 2026 spans 16 host cities across the United States, Canada, and Mexico from 11 June to 19 July 2026, the largest edition of the tournament in history. Klook brings fans the opportunity to access World Cup 2026 hospitality packages featuring premium seating, elevated dining, and exclusive matchday environments.

Streik bei Postbank-Filialen: Kunden müssen sich auf geschlossene Schalter einstellen

30.04.2026

Die Vereinte Dienstleistungsgewerkschaft Verdi hat Beschäftigte der Postbank zu bundesweiten Warnstreiks aufgerufen und damit den laufenden Tarifkonflikt mit dem Deutsche‑Bank‑Konzern eskaliert. Für Donnerstag, den 30. April, und Samstag, den 2. Mai, sind Arbeitsniederlegungen im Filialvertrieb geplant. Kunden müssen sich darauf einstellen, dass zahlreiche Standorte vorübergehend schließen oder ihren Betrieb deutlich einschränken. In Delmenhorst etwa blieb die Filiale an der Mühlenstraße am Donnerstag komplett geschlossen, betroffen waren dort auch die Schalter der Deutschen Post.

Verdi verhandelt für rund 9000 Beschäftigte der ehemaligen Postbank, die seit 2018 vollständig zur Deutschen Bank gehört. Die Gewerkschaft fordert eine Erhöhung der Gehälter um acht Prozent, mindestens jedoch 300 Euro pro Monat. Auszubildende sollen 200 Euro mehr erhalten. Darüber hinaus drängt Verdi auf Beschäftigungs- und Standortsicherung sowie einen verbindlichen Rechtsanspruch auf Weiterbildung, etwa im Zusammenhang mit neuen Technologien wie Künstlicher Intelligenz.

Verdi-Verhandlungsführer Jan Duscheck kritisierte das bisherige Angebot der Arbeitgeberseite als unzureichend. Es spiegele weder die wirtschaftliche Lage der Deutschen Bank noch die hohe Belastung in den Betrieben wider, sagte er. Mit den Warnstreiks wollten die Beschäftigten ein Signal senden, dass sie bereit seien, für „faire Einkommen und verlässliche Perspektiven“ einzutreten. Bereits nach der ersten Verhandlungsrunde am 15. April hatte die Gewerkschaft Protestmaßnahmen angekündigt; in einer früheren Tarifrunde im Jahr 2024 waren nach mehreren Runden und wiederholten Warnstreiks Einschränkungen im Kundenservice die Folge.

Im Mittelpunkt der laufenden Tarifrunde stehen neben der Entgeltfrage auch die Folgen der Integration der Postbank in die Deutsche Bank. Filialschließungen, organisatorische Veränderungen und die generelle Transformation der Privatkundenbank sorgen nach Angaben von Verdi in vielen Bereichen für Verunsicherung unter den Beschäftigten. Wie stark die aktuellen Warnstreiks den Betrieb der Filialen an den beiden Aktionstagen tatsächlich beeinträchtigen werden, dürfte auch die Ausgangslage für die nächste Verhandlungsrunde prägen, die für den 18. Mai in Frankfurt angesetzt ist.
