The proposed bill, HB2194, aims to amend existing laws regarding the resale of event tickets in Arizona. It establishes new prohibitions for resellers, secondary ticket exchanges, and their affiliates, specifically preventing them from reselling more than one copy of the same ticket for an athletic contest or live entertainment event. Additionally, resellers must inform purchasers about the specific location of the seat or general admission area associated with the ticket before the sale. The bill also stipulates that tickets can only be resold or advertised for resale if the reseller possesses the ticket or has a written contract with the rights holder.

The bill removes certain previous prohibitions, such as the restriction against employing someone to wait in line for ticket purchases if prohibited by the event venue, and the requirement that tickets cannot be resold before they are publicly available unless authorized. Furthermore, it eliminates the specification that the resale prohibitions are in addition to any other restrictions imposed by the rights holder, thereby streamlining the regulations surrounding ticket resales.
