Governor Maura Healey has proposed the "Great Divide Act" to limit ticket resale prices, aiming to combat high costs driven by scalpers and secondary markets. The legislation would cap resale prices at 110 percent of face value and restrict certain speculative sales, but concerns remain that it could push resale activity underground, increasing fraud risks. Industry representatives support the measure, but critics fear it may not effectively reduce prices and could lead to increased black market sales. Despite high ticket prices and resale challenges, some fans continue to seek memorable concert experiences, though many are left outside due to demand exceeding supply.
