Formula 1 owner Liberty Media announced the acquisition of Sportsnet Holidays’ parent company, QuintEvents, LLC as part of a $313 million transaction.
The deal adds Quint and Sportsnet to Liberty’s brand portfolio which includes Formula 1, Sirius XM and Live Nation.
“This is a transformative moment for Sportsnet’s future,” said Rob Cecconi, Sportsnet Holidays founder.
