Should there be a cap on ticket resale prices?

More than 40 artists, including Dua Lipa, Coldplay and Radiohead, have urged the government to honour its promise to protect fans from ticket touts by capping resale prices.

Fans have complained of massively inflated ticket costs, with some listings exceeding £4,000.

Research shows resale prices are typically marked up by over 50%.

A government consultation proposed a 30% cap and limiting bulk buying, but no legislation has followed.

While artists and consumer groups back a cap to restore fairness, resale platforms like Viagogo and StubHub warn it could drive buyers to riskier, unregulated markets.
