It’s official – Colorado’s ticket fee law goes into effect today.

That means anytime you shop for a ticket to a game, show or concert, the sellers will need to disclose any ticket fee with the price – up front.

It doesn’t matter if the ticket fee is called a “service fee,” “processing fee,” or “convenience fee,” sellers can no longer blindside you after you’ve picked the date and selected your seats.

We deserve to know how much something truly costs when we’re shopping around, not learning about hidden fees when we check out.

Thanks to the Colorado legislature for bringing transparency to ticket fees in Colorado.

To report ticket sellers who are not complying with the law, file a complaint with the Colorado Attorney General at stopfraudcolorado.gov.
