Fan Freedom

Fan Freedom and its thousands of individual and organizational supporters fight for the basic rights of fans and ticket owners wherever they are threatened.

This is unacceptable! What are fans supposed to do?? You can't trust Ticketmaster, but Ticketmaster has a monopoly on live events.

HB684, an act "relative to the sale of admission tickets", passed! Thank you @RepPaulaDavis, @RickWardLA and @LouisianaGov for putting fans first in Louisiana!

Just another example of how concerts are rigged against fans. Even if tickets are refunded, that doesn't cover the cost of time off, travel, lodging, etc.

March Madness: Eric Church cancels concert for UNC-Duke https://t.co/GOEDJYY35E via @Yahoo

[Wu Tang is for the Children @WUTangKids]

I don’t know who Eric Church is but he straight up canceled his show this weekend in Texas to go watch UNC in the Final Four by sending an email message through Ticketmaster to fans with tickets and they are rightfully pissed

[Jacob @Soulfight2424]

😂 holy fuck, what a douchebag move by Eric Church. Dude cancelled his show Saturday so he can go to the UNC/Duke game. People likely had flights, hotels, and whatever else that isn't refundable booked. Really hoping he sees half empty venues from here on out. #Douchebag

Did you see John Oliver's commentary on the live ticketing industry? He provided some good insight, but it's important to keep his remarks in context. Check out what Fan Freedom President Chris VanDeHoef had to say: https://t.co/FG19OoOXY3

Here's our piece from last night explaining why the ticket buying process makes everyone so angry...https://t.co/XWIprr1tvu

[MaryEllen Rodriguez @MaryEllenRodr17]

@Ticketmaster @bts_bighit @AllegiantStadm Alot of those so-called Armies, bought tickets in bundles so they could resell them on apps like vivid seats...there are alot of tickets selling on that particular site...

[Fan Freedom @FanFreedom]

Tried buying concert tickets and all I got was a lousy headache. 🤦‍♀️

[Fan Freedom @FanFreedom]

Txxketmxxter: neither fan friendly nor user friendly.

@Ticketmaster @bts_bighit @AllegiantStadm i got kicked out during payment of soundcheck tickets. not cool man

[Fan Freedom @FanFreedom]

Fans like this deserve better!

[rere27 @rere9319]

@ImSleepyAF_ @Ticketmaster @bts_bighit @AllegiantStadm I’ve had a membership since 2019 and applied for presale and got waitlisted. Where’s my chance to even try for a ticket 😫

[Fan Freedom @FanFreedom]

When a single company controls a monopoly on concert tickets, fans lose.

FANS DESERVE BETTER. To the mass disappoint of the #BTSARMY, the Txxketmxxter monopoly strikes again.

[TicketNews @TicketNews]

A rapid sellout of @BTS_twt Las Vegas tickets through "Verified Fan" didn't seem to keep a huge portion of the tickets being listed for resale. https://t.co/2pqjrgmvKp

[Fan Freedom @FanFreedom]

It's no secret. Fans don't trust Ticketmaster.

“If you want to resell your ticket, if you want to transfer your ticket, should someone be able to say, ‘You can only do it here’? Or should you be able to do it however you want?” Fine said. “I think this bill looks out for the little guy.”

If we’re going to see a boom in new venues across the country, we need to fix the broken ticketing market. Facilities, many of which receive our tax dollars, are useless if we don’t put fans first.

According to the ticket reseller, this contest is seeing more than double the sales of the AFC title game. https://t.co/Kv8G8trjko

[Fan Freedom @FanFreedom]

Ticket restrictions are unacceptable. Fortunately, the secondary market has plenty of tickets available. Just don't go through Ticketmaster. They have a history of restricting fans.

[Deebo @19problemz]

I get that we turned sofi stadium to Levi’s but restricting fan from buying tickets is kraxy to me….. IJS

[Fan Freedom @FanFreedom]

These trends of teams restricting tickets during the playoffs are concerning. Not good for fans.

"Rams hope to avert an invasion of 49ers fans by stopping ticket sales outside of L.A." https://t.co/ENhK389Pth

[David Lombardi @LombardiHimself]

It appears the Rams are already afraid that the 49ers will again make SoFi Stadium their home — they're trying to restrict ticket sales for a potential NFC title game by geography.

IMO pathetic and also premature — LA isn't even in the title game yet
