Anti-Scalping Legislation
Anti-scalping legislation refers to laws designed to prevent ticket scalping, a practice where individuals buy tickets for events and then resell them at significantly higher prices. These laws aim to protect consumers by regulating ticket sales, ensuring fair pricing, and reducing fraudulent activity. They may enforce limits on resale prices, require sellers to disclose original ticket prices, or mandate the use of official ticket vendors. The goal is to make tickets more accessible to fans, rather than allowing them to be hoarded and resold at inflated rates by opportunistic scalpers.
