Ticketing

We provide information and advice on ticketing and consumer-related matters, promote consumer awareness of safe and fair ticketing practice, and work with federal and state governments to improve regulations to protect consumers.

Our Ticketing Code of Practice is mandatory for all Members. It has two parts:

• the industry code, which provides guidelines on complaint handling procedures, ticket proceeds handling protocols, advertising, ticket pricing and other industry practices
• the consumer code, which covers consumer rights

The Ticketing Code is independently reviewed and re-issued every three years. The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission provide feedback as part of the review process.

Our information for consumers includes the Safe Tix video, which is a companion to the Safe Tix Guide, ­and the Consumer Guide: Buying and Selling Tickets in the Ticket Resale Market.
