Maryland Takes Aim at Ticket Scalpers

Maryland proposes legislation to regulate concert ticket resales, aiming to protect consumers from exorbitant prices and deceptive practices. The bill targets the secondary ticket market, introducing price caps and requiring all-in pricing disclosure. Despite opposition, there is strong support from concert venues, artists' groups, and consumer advocates. If successful, this legislation could set a precedent for other states and contribute to better consumer protection and fair market practices.
