General Scheme of the Sale of Tickets (Sporting and Cultural Events) Bill 2017: Discussion

4:00 pm

Mr. Bill Cox:

They are set by the artist with the promoter. I suspect that it will primarily be the artist. Live Nation, which promotes most of the main touring acts and manages some of them, has expressly said that its policy is to take back revenue from the secondary market by moving towards dynamic pricing, so that does raise a question for legislation of the kind contained in the Deputy's Bill when people can charge those kind of prices on the primary market.
