New York State is going after venues that add on fees to ticket prices. “When the consumer sees a ticket price advertised for $100, that should be the price you pay. We don’t want the consumer exposed to a situation where they are led to believe that the ticket price is $100 and then you get to the box office only to be told that there’s a $1 restoration or a $2.50 convenience charge or whatever the venue calls their added-on fee. If the theatre feels it needs a dollar to go to a restoration fund, that’s their business, but they should advertise that the ticket costs $100 or $101, whatever the total is. The rest is accounting.”
