Case Study: KK Ilirija vs. KK Bosna – Record Crowd, Seamless Experience

The ABA League 2 final between KK Ilirija and KK Bosna Visit Sarajevo wasn’t just another game—it was a milestone. With more than 2,000 fans in attendance, it marked the highest turnout for Ilirija in recent years. The energy was incredible, the stakes were high, and the pressure on event operations was real.

This was one of the most demanding events Ticklio has supported to date—and we’re proud to say our platform delivered a flawless experience.

A Record Crowd, Smooth Check-Ins

Managing over two thousand attendees can be a challenge, especially when excitement builds and crowds arrive all at once. Thanks to Ticklio’s mobile check-in system, every ticket was scanned quickly and securely, ensuring fast access and no bottlenecks at the entrance.

Even security staff without prior training on the platform handled check-ins with ease—processing over 60 attendees per minute. That level of performance speaks not only to the system’s reliability but also to its user-friendly design.

Attendees didn’t have to worry about queues or delays—they could focus entirely on the game.

This kind of performance is exactly why organizers trust Ticklio for big moments.
