Requires issuance of refund or credit for tickets purchased through reseller or ticket resale website for events that get postponed.
This bill requires resellers and ticket resale websites to provide a refund or credit if an event they sold tickets for is postponed. It directly affects ticket buyers who purchased resold tickets and the businesses selling those tickets. If an event is postponed, buyers must receive either a full refund (excluding handling/delivery fees if the exclusion was previously disclosed) or a credit for the ticket price (also excluding those fees), with the refund available for 30 days after the postponement is confirmed. The law also mandates clear disclosure of fee exclusions and prohibits resellers from selling tickets they don't yet possess without upfront disclosure.
