Ticket Pricing and Government Response
The UK , led by Culture Secretary , announced a probe into surge pricing practices after fans faced inflated ticket prices for the Oasis reunion tour.
Dynamic pricing, which adjusts ticket costs based on demand, has been criticized for excluding average fans and is under scrutiny for transparency and fairness in ticket sales.
Public and Industry Reaction
Fans expressed outrage over ticket prices more than doubling, with some taking to social media to voice their frustrations and others unable to purchase tickets at all.
Industry experts defend dynamic pricing as a legal practice based on supply and demand, while the government and regulators consider measures to ensure fair access to tickets.
