Requires ticket sellers to show all costs and available seats upfront, stopping hidden tickets and inflated prices.
This bill would make it easier for people to buy event tickets. It would force sellers to be clear about prices and how many tickets are truly available. Companies would be stopped from hiding tickets to drive up prices or mislead the public. This gives consumers a fairer chance at buying seats. The Federal Trade Commission would enforce these new rules.
Today, primary ticket sellers are not explicitly required by federal law to disclose comprehensive ticket availability or total costs before sales. They are also not explicitly prohibited from withholding tickets to inflate prices or mislead the public about availability. If this bill becomes law, primary ticket sellers would have to clearly show the total number of tickets and their full cost at least 7 days before sales begin. They would also be banned from holding back tickets to drive up prices or mislead buyers.
