Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend chapter 704 of the laws of 1991 amending the arts and cultural affairs law and chapter 912 of the laws of 1920 relating to regulation of boxing and wrestling matches relating to tickets to places of entertainment, and chapter 151 of the laws of 2010 amending the arts and cultural affairs law relating to resale of tickets to places of entertainment, in relation to extending the effectiveness thereof

AI Summary

This bill extends certain provisions related to ticket resale rules in New York State until June 30, 2026. Specifically, the bill amends two previous laws to push back the expiration date of regulations governing ticket sales and resale for places of entertainment, such as concert venues, sports arenas, and other event spaces. The key provisions maintain existing rules about ticket printing, sales restrictions (such as prohibiting sales within 1,500 feet of an event venue), and maximum premium prices for resold tickets. The bill essentially preserves the current legal framework for ticket sales that was set to expire in 2025, now extending those regulations for an additional year until the end of June 2026. This extension allows the state to continue regulating ticket sales and protecting consumers from potentially predatory resale practices while giving lawmakers more time to develop long-term policies for ticket sales and resale.
