英国政府正加紧制定新法律以打击演唱会门票黄牛行为。1数字、文化、媒体和体育部已组建规模庞大的"法案团队"起草相关政策,文化大臣丽莎·南迪表示政府将把此事作为优先事项。1这一举措旨在防止粉丝通过Viagogo和StubHub等票务转售平台遭受欺诈。1
总理基尔·斯塔默去年承诺政府将"阻止粉丝被黄牛欺骗",禁止在上述网站进行营利性票务转售。1该承诺首次出现在劳工党2024年选举宣言中。1虽然这一禁令未在今年国会演讲中列入,但打击黄牛行为的工作仍在进行。1
黄牛问题的严重程度不容小觑。FanFair Alliance研究发现,仅三名基地分别在拉脱维亚、北美和德国的黄牛党占据超过75%的列表。1据O2公司估计,粉丝在劳工党宣布该政策至今年4月期间损失了6000万英镑。1个别情况更为极端,歌手Mica Millar的演唱会门票被炒至5899英镑,涨幅达到19728%。1包括Smiths成员迈克·乔伊斯和说唱歌手Tinie Tempah在内的众多艺术家已呼吁总理立即行动。1
英国目前已对足球票务的非法转售进行了禁止,但演唱会和剧院门票转售仍被允许。1邻国爱尔兰已于2021年禁止黄牛行为。1
The UK government is accelerating efforts to draft legislation aimed at preventing the resale of concert tickets for profit on platforms such as Viagogo and StubHub, sources indicate 1. Prime Minister Keir Starmer made a commitment to this ban last year, and although it did not feature in this year's parliamentary speech, the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport has now established a dedicated team to develop the policy 1.
Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy has signalled that the government will prioritize this matter 1. Research by FanFair Alliance reveals that just three ticket touts based in Latvia, North America, and Germany account for over 75 percent of available listings 1. The scale of the problem is evident in cases such as Mica Millar concert tickets being resold for £5,899, representing a markup of 19,728 percent 1. According to O2, fans lost £60 million during the period between Labour's announcement of this policy and April of this year 1.
High-profile figures in the entertainment industry have called for swift action. Mike Joyce, a member of The Smiths, and rapper Tinie Tempah have urged the Prime Minister to act immediately 1. The UK currently prohibits illegal ticket resale for football matches, though concerts and theatre tickets remain permitted to be resold 1. Ireland implemented a ban on ticket touts in 2021 1. The commitment to introduce such legislation was first made in Labour's 2024 election manifesto 1.
