Buying Tickets Just Got a Lot More Honest

A new rule aimed at ending “junk fees” is now in effect—and it’s already changing how major platforms sell tickets. Ticketmaster, often criticized for hiding surprise charges, has announced it will now display full ticket prices at the start of the shopping process. The change aligns with a new Federal Trade Commission rule that requires upfront pricing for tickets, hotel bookings, vacation rentals, and more.

Ticketmaster says it supports the shift, noting that it brings North America closer to pricing standards used globally. The company is also improving its wait-time notifications, offering real-time updates on ticket availability and pricing during high-demand events. SeatGeek, another major ticketing platform, has followed suit, making all-in pricing the default. These updates come after years of public frustration over hidden fees and unexpected price hikes. With these changes, fans may finally get a simpler, more transparent ticket-buying experience.
