Starting May 12, with All In Prices, you’ll be able to find tickets within your budget right away, with no surprises at checkout. That’s because you’ll see the cost of your ticket—including fees, before taxes—from the moment you start shopping for any Ticketmaster event in the U.S.

More importantly, we’re all in on putting fans first. We’ve long advocated for all-in pricing laws worldwide, and support a consistent ticket-buying experience for fans.

Oh! You've supported being forced to do it instead of... just doing it? As the leader in the market they could have set the stage. They are full of it and I've refused to give them money for about 10 years now and will continue to spend my hard earned money elsewhere.

they're gonna use 'all in' pricing to hide the bullshit charges even more than before.
