Our experts are featured in PLC Magazine discussing the upcoming consumer protection measures

This article first appeared in the October 2024 issue of PLC Magazine.

Our Partners Andrew Northage and Sarah Ward, Senior Associate Michael Cordeaux, and Associate Della Heptinstall have provided insights on the implications of the Digital Markets, Competition, and Consumers Act 2024 (DMCCA) for live-event ticket sales in the latest issue of PLC Magazine.

The DMCCA, set to come into force in spring 2025, introduces stringent consumer protection measures, including turnover-based fines and expanded civil enforcement powers. These changes are expected to significantly affect businesses involved in the sale of live-event tickets.

In the article, our team stress the importance of transparency in ticket sales, particularly concerning dynamic pricing and consumer expectations. They highlight the potential for the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) to focus on live-event ticket sales as an area of enforcement under the new regime.
