Background photo shows a concert scene. Text says “We’ve argued for years that Ticketmaster owner Live Nation has a monopoly that harms consumers, venues, artists, and competition. Today, a jury agreed with us and has found Live Nation fully liable for its illegal conduct. I am proud of state enforcers across the country who stood firm in rejecting the federal government’s inadequate settlement and pressing forward to win this landmark victory for competition and the rule of law.” - AG Nick Brown. Below that is the seal of the Attorney General's Office.
1/3: AG Nick Brown and a bipartisan coalition have won a landmark verdict in an antitrust case against Live Nation for illegally monopolizing the live entertainment industry, driving up prices for consumers and harming performers and venues.
A jury has ruled that Live Nation Entertainment and its subsidiary Ticketmaster acted illegally, monopolizing the live event ticketing market.
Four days of deliberations after the jury heard weeks of expert testimony.
Remedies could include significant divestments, or even a breakup of Live Nation and Ticketmaster — an outcome that the federal government had called for when filing its case almost two years ago. Live Nation will contest.

This is great news.
I’m grateful to state AGs, including @vtattorneygeneral.bsky.social, for stepping up when the Trump admin dropped the ball.
Now, we need real consequences for Live Nation and accountability for how they treated American consumers.
