California Assembly Bill 1720 proposes to cap ticket resale prices at 10% above face value to protect fans from scalping, gaining support from independent venues but facing criticism for potentially strengthening Ticketmaster and Live Nation's market dominance.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of E-commerce.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

Changes in California's ticket resale laws will redraw market lines for live event ticketing. If you operate in resale or venue management, you must prepare for shifts in pricing and platform competition that may reduce resale flexibility but open doors with smaller venues.
