A BRIEF HISTORY OF OTX

OVATION TRAVEL EXPERIENCES is an organization made up of fresh minds and industry veterans, dedicated to giving you the entertainment experience of a lifetime.

The first incarnation of OTX was started in 1969 at Queen's University in Kingston, Ontario by company President David 'Ois' Finlay. "Then called Great Canadian Rock Tours, the goal was to organize students to attend local concerts and to travel on buses to other cities for various events. It was a huge hit!" With shows like Genesis, Alice Cooper, RUSH and other popular bands of the day, you can see why fans loved the opportunity!

With literally hundreds of concert, sports and theatre events under our belts, you can understand why the event specialists at OTX are the obvious choice for your event package needs. Our recent event history includes U2's worldwide smash hit VERTIGO tour, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Madonna, Justin Timberlake, Christina Aguilera, The Rolling Stones, Canada's Grey Cup, The Stanley Cup Playoffs, Phantom of the Opera and many, many more.
