No More Hidden Fees: NC Enforces Transparent Ticket Prices

[CBS 17] Starting January 1, 2025, North Carolina will require ticket sellers to show full prices upfront, eliminating hidden fees at checkout. This new law mandates transparency for ticket sellers like Ticketmaster and SeatGeek, who must disclose all costs before a transaction is completed. Violations will be treated as deceptive practices. Attorney General Josh Stein and musician Rhiannon Giddens support this move toward fairer pricing for consumers.
