This bill aims to enhance consumer protection in ticket sales by establishing clear disclosure requirements and prohibitions for operators, ticket resellers, and online ticket marketplaces. It mandates that these entities provide transparent information regarding the total cost of tickets, including all fees and surcharges, and requires them to disclose specific details about the tickets being sold, such as the assigned seat and refund policies. Additionally, the bill prohibits practices such as selling multiple copies of the same ticket, misleading advertising, and circumventing purchasing limits.

The bill also empowers the commissioner of commerce to enforce these regulations and requires online ticket marketplaces to disclose information about their practices upon request. It introduces new definitions related to ticket sales and establishes penalties for non-compliance. The provisions of this bill will take effect on January 1, 2025, applying to all tickets sold from that date forward.
