The issues mirror the US case: exclusivity, pressure on artists, and one company shaping the market. Accountability is spreading, and momentum for fair competition is growing.
After the US antitrust win, pressure on Live Nation is rising in the UK.
A new parliamentary report urges a full‑market investigation, citing Live Nation’s control of up to 66% of UK ticketing and a “climate of fear” among promoters and workers.
The National Consumers League is turning up the pressure, urging the Senate to bring the TICKET Act to a vote. With strong bipartisan backing and growing momentum for real ticketing reform, there’s no reason to wait.

After the antitrust verdict, state AGs want Live Nation + Ticketmaster split to restore real competition.
Live Nation is pushing back, calling it “political theater” and asking for a new trial. But the jury’s message was clear: they held unlawful monopolies, and fans paid for it
Knicks fans were promised a “Fan First” Finals presale… then found no tickets even after registering the night before.
The sale was suddenly postponed, sidelining lifelong fans. Fair, transparent ticketing keeps the game accessible. 🏀
New Music Artists Coalition polling shows fans want a fairer ticketing marketplace, and value resale as a service to get them there.
Resale gives options when primary sales shut fans out. They want verified tickets + real action on fraud, not restrictions that take away choices.

When you buy a ticket, you should control it. But transfer limits are locking fans into one marketplace with one set of prices and rules.
If you can’t share, gift, or resell a ticket, you don’t truly own it. Real transferability is essential for a fair ticketing system.
Fans are tired of being kept in the dark. Surprise fees, unclear inventory, and shifting rules make ticketing feel like guesswork. People deserve real prices upfront and honest info about what’s available. Transparency shouldn’t be optional — it should be the standard.
The Live Nation antitrust verdict is big, but it won’t fix the system by itself. In an article for @TheHill, former AGs @KenCuccinelli and Drew Ketterer say states have a short window to deliver real relief for fans.

But several of those states are advancing bills that could strengthen the same market power they challenged by squeezing out independent resale platforms.
States have a choice: back their own case to restore competition or pass policies that undercut it.
State AGs took Live Nation to court because the DOJ’s earlier settlement wasn’t enough to fix a broken market. Their landmark win confirmed how concentrated the ticketing market had become.
On @KFBK, @Brighton_Dustin explained how the Live Nation verdict reflects years of rising prices, less transparency, and a market with no real competition — and what’s next as the court weighs remedies and appeals.
Fans were right: the ticketing game was stacked against them. A jury ruled Live Nation/Ticketmaster ran an illegal monopoly that inflated prices and shut out rivals. Execs even joked about “robbing fans blind.”
What happens next will determine how much the industry shifts
A jury ruled that Live Nation/Ticketmaster used its dominance to inflate ticket prices and harm fans.
