The publication of this new guide follows a FanFair booklet aimed at artist managers last year, produced in collaboration with the Music Managers Forum. The vast majority of artists and music businesses are with us on this issue”.

He continues: “In response, FanFair has consulted widely to come up with ten simple tips that aim to empower audiences and help them better navigate the ticket buying process. “These businesses not only fuel industrial-scale levels of ticket touting, they also use a range of manipulative marketing techniques that sow confusion when tickets go onsale and direct fans away from legitimate and authorised sellers”. “The guide is a response to the dark arts employed by the resale platforms Get Me In!, Seatwave, StubHub and Viagogo”, says FanFar Alliance’s Adam Webb. The new guide from the anti-touting group offers tips for preparing before tickets go on sale, knowing when tickets really are sold out, and finding tickets being resold at face value.
