Taylor Swift fans rejoice: Ticketmaster is now telling you your spot in line
Briefly

On the same day a ban on junk fees began, Ticketmaster announced important changes to enhance ticket buyers' experiences, particularly acknowledging issues from Taylor Swift's previous tour. Fans will now receive real-time updates on their spot in line and ticket availability, allowing for more informed purchasing decisions. Additionally, the introduction of 'All in Prices' aims to disclose the total ticket cost upfront, free from hidden fees. This comes amidst a backdrop of regulatory scrutiny over Ticketmaster's market dominance and practices, following ongoing antitrust investigations against its parent company Live Nation.
On Monday, the Biden-era ban on junk fees went into effect and Ticketmaster announced a slate of changes it's making to comply with the new rules.
Ticketmaster is also introducing 'All in Prices,' which will display the full ticket price upfront, including all fees.
The company said that it will now tell hopeful fans their exact spot in line and how many people are ahead of them.
Ultimately, the ongoing suit seeks to break up Live Nation - fitting, given that Swift is the champion of the breakup song.
