Ticketmaster to Show Full Ticket Prices After 'Junk Fee' Ban
Ticketmaster to Display All-In Ticket Prices Following 'Junk Fee' Ban Washington, D.C. - Ticketmaster has begun displaying the full price of tickets, including all fees, as soon as consumers begin shopping. This follows the Biden administration's ban on so-called "junk fees," which went into effect on Monday. The move has been welcomed by consumer advocates who have long criticized Ticketmaster's pricing practices. "This is a victory for consumers," said [Quote from a consumer advocate]. The change in policy comes after intense scrutiny of Ticketmaster's pricing, particularly during the recent Taylor Swift Eras Tour, where many fans reported extremely high prices. Ticketmaster, however, has stated that they have long supported the "all-in" pricing model, and that the new policy will make it easier for fans to compare prices across different ticketing platforms. "We commend the Biden administration's ban on junk fees and are pleased to comply with this new policy," a Ticketmaster spokesperson said. "Our new 'all-in' pricing will provide transparency and allow fans to easily compare prices across all ticketing sites." The change is expected to benefit consumers significantly, providing more transparency and fairness in the ticketing market.
