Friends, last month we secured a historic victory: a jury found Live Nation and Ticketmaster liable for harming fans, artists, and venues through years of illegal anticompetitive conduct, including overcharging for tickets.
Now, we're finishing the job.
I asked the court to break up Live Nation and Ticketmaster for good. Our order would require Live Nation to divest Ticketmaster and sell off its major concert venues across the country, dismantling the structure that allowed this monopoly to thrive in the first place.
We’re asking the court for this new order because a verdict alone isn’t enough. Live Nation was previously subject to behavioral remedies and ignored them, so we’re seeking structural remedies to ensure they can no longer hold this illegal, anti-competitive power over the market.
Live Nation got rich not because it was better — but because it broke the law.
Artists were hurt, fans were overcharged, and venues and rival promoters were squeezed out, all because one company was allowed to dominate every corner of the live music industry.
While the Trump administration has abandoned consumers in the middle of an affordability crisis, illegal monopolies like this one have only made things worse. It’s clear we can’t trust massive corporations like Live Nation to do the right thing for consumers, so we’re fighting back — and we’re winning.
