Change the law and ban the resale of tickets above their face value

Petition Details

Tickets brought by experienced touts... and people who buy just them just to make money.

(music/sporting event)

Additional Information

This has really struck a nerve with me today. BTS sold out Wembley stadium just an hour ago, after 1hr 30mins. There are already tickets being sold on
face value: £200 - being sold £3,000+
This is disgusting. So many devestated fans. This is one example. It happens all the time.
We support the artists day in day out and should be able to see them perform.
If everyone knew they weren’t going to be able to make money on these sell out gigs, then they wouldn’t buy them up just to make money on.
