Abstract

Ticket touting remains one of the most controversial issues facing the sport and entertainment industries, with diametrically opposed views from both sides on its legality and the need for further regulation. Following the launch of the latest campaign to increase consumers’ knowledge of available protections when engaging with the secondary ticketing market, this intervention reviews the current state of the law and proposes a more holistic approach to any future legislative interventions.
