For music lovers who were eager to get back to live entertainment, the relaxation of pandemic restrictions over the year has been great but it hasn’t been good for their finances. Statistics on ticketnews.com show that concert tickets have increased almost 20% since 2019, a staggering climb that is outperforming the high rates of inflation.
Ticketmaster was in the news recently for experiencing a glitch when the tickets for Taylor Swift’s tour initially went on sale. Fans were angry they lost out on tickets but were also upset that the ticket prices were drastically higher.
