Ticketmaster is facing a class-action lawsuit from a Montreal man who claims the ticketing site doubled the price of tickets for Drake’s upcoming tour.
by his law firm LPC Advocat Inc. after he purchased a pair of “Official Platinum” seats for Drake’s July 14 show at the Bell Centre.
When the tickets were purchased, the man paid $789.54 for each ticket, but when Drake announced a second show at the Bell Centre the following day for the same"Platinum" seats, the price dropped to $350. The lawsuit claims that Ticketmaster knew there would be a second show at the Bell Centre but “concealed this information” to “squeeze out” money from fans.
“Ticketmaster unilaterally decides which tickets it advertises and sells as ‘Official Platinum’ based on a given event,” the suit reads. “The result is that most, if not all, of the tickets advertised and sold as ‘Official Platinum’, are neither ‘premium tickets’ nor ‘some of the best seats in the house’ and are, in fact, just regular tickets sold by Ticketmaster at an artificially inflated premium in bad faith.
This isn't the first time that Ticketmaster has faced pricing issues. In the last year, the ticketing site faced two separate class action lawsuits after problems with the rollout ofThis also comes just weeks after fans began finding ways around Ticketmaster’s high ticket prices forNeither Drake nor Ticketmaster has commented on the prices of the tickets or the suit.
