Tickets: Sales Methods
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Business and Trade, when he plans to respond to the Putting Fans First consultation, which closed on 4 April 2025.
Answered by Kate Dearden
The government response to "Putting fans first: consultation on the resale of live events tickets" was published on 19 November. The government response sets out new measures to end the scourge of ticket touting and put fans back at the heart of live events - including a resale price cap which will make it illegal to resell a ticket for more than it was originally purchased for.
