Tickets: Sales Methods
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, when her Department plans to respond to the consultation on the resale of live events tickets.
- Answer
-
This government is committed to putting fans back at the heart of live events. We have committed to introducing new protections for consumers on ticket resales, and launched a consultation on 10th January to seek views on potential options for resale platforms as well as primary sellers. The consultation closed on 4th April and the responses are being considered. The Government will respond later in the summer to set out next steps.
The consultation was published alongside a call for evidence on pricing practices in the live events sector, including the use of dynamic pricing by the primary market.
