What They’re Saying

Comcast Spectacor / Global Spectrum
“The Kids Sports Spectacular is a terrific opportunity for patrons with disabilities to gather and share in fun and entertaining experiences. In addition, it’s a very educational experience for us on the arena-operating side as these types of events help us further learn how to better service the disability community. Comcast-Spectacor hopes to bring similar Kids Sports Spectacular events to its other Global Spectrum-managed public assembly facilities throughout the U.S. and Canada.”
John Page, Chief Operating Officer – Global Spectrum (Comcast Spectacor)
