What's new to Apple Wallet tickets

If you've never added tickets to Apple Wallet before, here's how it basically works:

When an iPhone user buys an event ticket, the company can offer that customer an option to add the ticket to Apple Wallet. If selected, the tickets appear in the user's Apple Wallet for easy access. The user can pull up their Apple Wallet when entering a venue and get scanned in via the barcode on their phone screen.

With iOS 18, Apple brings way more functionality to tickets inside Apple Wallet.

Previously, tickets just provided the basic information one might find on a printed ticket like the start time. Now, with the upgrades in iOS 18, tickets in Apple Wallet will provide a map of the venue, parking details, local weather forecasts, related merchandise links, and recommended Apple Music playlists.
