Objective
Ticketmaster is a global ticket sales and distribution company that facilitates the purchase and resale of tickets for live events, including concerts, sports games, theater performances, and family entertainment. Founded in 1976, it became a dominant force in the event ticketing industry through early adoption of computer-based sales systems. It merged with Live Nation in 2010 to form Live Nation Entertainment, a move that sparked regulatory scrutiny and ongoing antitrust debates. Ticketmaster operates both primary and secondary marketplaces and has faced criticism for its dynamic pricing model, service fees, and ticket bot issues. Its services are accessible via its website and mobile applications.
