We’re very happy to announce that FEAT will be hosting a panel on secondary ticketing at this year’s Eurosonic Noorderslag Festival in Groningen.
The panel will discuss whether regulation is the answer to the secondary ticketing problem, exploring recent legislative action in Europe, such as moves in Italy and Ireland to ban ticket resale and rulings by the Competition and Markets Authority in the UK against Viagogo.
Panellists include Dany Hassenstein, Booker for Paléo Festival Nyon, Promoter at Opus One, and an executive board member of the Swiss Music Promoter Association (SMPA); Aline Renet, Director of Institutional Relations and Institutional Advisor at Prodiss; Ben Challis, UK lawyer specialising in music and entertainment law and General Counsel for Glastonbury; and Rammstein’s legal advisor Sebastian Ott. It will be moderated by FEAT’s Sam Shemtob.
The panel will take place on Friday 18 January at 13.30 – 14.30 in De Oosterpoort. For more information and a full description of the panel, head over here: https://esns.nl/conference/is-regulation-the-answer-to-the-secondary-ticketing-problem/2019-01-18/13:30
