The California Assembly advanced AB 1720, the California Fans First Act, a proposal that would cap resale prices for live-event tickets at 10% above the original price, including fees, according to the chamber’s floor record.
The bill was described on the floor as applying to live events and performances, and the summary of the session says amendments in Appropriations narrowed it to smaller or independent venues. The floor record places AB 1720 among a slate of measures taken up during the Assembly’s May 28 session.
The provided transcript summary does not include the final vote tally for AB 1720, and it does not spell out the full amended bill language. But it does show the proposal moving ahead as a discrete consumer-protection measure aimed at ticket resale pricing.
