Watchdog to investigate Ticketmaster over Oasis ticket sales
Briefly

The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has opened an investigation into Ticketmaster for potential price manipulation during the ticket sales for Oasis's upcoming tour, amid widespread outrage from fans.
Complaints have emerged from fans regarding the sharp increase in ticket prices for the 17 Oasis shows, which were raised unexpectedly, leading to severe criticism of the pricing practices.
Despite the controversy, the Gallagher brothers clarified that they had no involvement in the ticket pricing, highlighting a possible disconnect between the artists and the ticketing process.
The CMA is urgently reviewing the use of dynamic pricing systems, particularly in light of the backlash surrounding the perceived exploitation of fans during ticket sales.
