Ticket Scalping Laws

Ticket scalping laws vary by region but generally seek to regulate the resale of event tickets. Scalping involves buying tickets at face value and reselling them at a marked-up price. Many places have laws prohibiting excessive markups or require scalpers to be licensed. These regulations aim to protect consumers from inflated prices and ensure fair access to tickets. Enforcement can include fines or penalties for violators. While some areas have relaxed these laws, others remain strict to maintain a fair marketplace for fans and audiences.
