Who sets the ticket price?

The event organizer sets the ticket price.

How much money does Ticketmaster make from a ticket?

Ticketmaster doesn’t keep anything from the cost of a standard ticket, instead we take a proportion of the added fees to cover the cost of running our business. We use this revenue to provide fans with the very best experience when buying tickets and getting into the show.

What do booking fees cover?

These fees simply cover the cost of processing a booking from start to finish – the only revenue we generate – including:

Retail distribution (websites, call center and customer service)

Payment processing

Technology solutions (scanning you in at the venue)

Ticket fulfillment (printing, packing and distributing tickets)

Can you tell me how many tickets have been sold for an event?

I have an issue with my tickets, can the press office help?

The press team does not handle any ticketing enquiries, please reach out to your local customer service team who will be able to assist you.

Can Ticketmaster get me media access to an event?
