Even worse: Ticombo displays a giant EU “seal of excellence” across its website, misleading buyers into thinking it’s officially endorsed by the European Commission. 6/9

On Tuesday of last week, FEAT and @fanfairalliance.bsky.social found 100s of tix advertised to gigs across Europe and the UK, with many priced over €1,500. The highest tickets appeared for nearly €4,000 - over 30x the face value. 2/9

A big thank you to Nikola Minchev @hannesheide.bsky.social @zdrojewski.bsky.social @laurencefarreng.bsky.social & Hristo Petrov for this amendment to CULT's report on the European Sports Model. The EC must monitor compliance of ticket resale websites with EU law! We'll be following tomorrow's vote 🇪🇺

Talking about the DSA and Europe-wide ticket resale legislation, ACM’s Chief Economist Paul de Bijl says “if things don’t improve, the French solution could be better. It would give more firepower to quickly intervene in scalping” @esns.bsky.social #esns25
